@Scorpion888yeah. And in inter state migration I brought in ravenstein and stouffers migration law. But it all looks as if we forced a theory into an answer. Lacked real linkage

@jnik21/28 questions repeated ? I thought only the theme of the question was repeated. The question by itself I dont think was from PYQ.

@HartshorneHow much were you scoring in guidance geo tests ?

@HartshorneYeah they give pretty low marks. I got like 100 in paper 1 and 100 - 110 in paper 2. That's the maximum I got. It was tough considering I was not a 500+ student and some said that some questions came from the program every test. Idk how true it is though.

Anyway I was hoping to score somewhat better than last year but it doesn't look likely.

@RagsI think i'tll just get you over mains towards interview. When you are in the border zone then you need like 190 in interview to make it to the list. That's a bit difficult. Usually the goal is to clear the cut off by 50 in mains.

Anyway it is a good idea to discuss. Those who remember....
