[official][prelims 2023] How was prelims result? In or out?

@GaneshGaitonde Thankyou for your guidance. Gave last year's mains  giving this time too. Though I didn't prepare well for last mains and didn't give tests diligently therefore scored 600 in total. But after scoring 118 in essay I came to realise that UPSC rewards originality, I didn't even give single test of essay, and wrote my own thoughts in essay and scored good. 
Thus, I have decided to be original in my answers this time and not rely solely on test series.

@GaneshGaitonde Yeahh, I agree that we should atleast attempt 85+ questions in such paper. I attempted 88, got around 55 correct
In test series you should try to solve around 95 questions and develop a knack of attempting those questions too in which you have no idea, or know only one statement. I think this helped me a lot in main exam to deal with 'atrangi' questions.
