Interview Transcripts (CSPT-2025)

Some statistical modelling done by Krejcie & Morgan and other statisticians suggest that for a sample of around 3000 people, a sample size of around 20%, i.e. data of 600 people is needed for accurate analysis of patterns or behaviours. Hence anyone claiming to know the trend will need data for those many people, otherwise the pattern analysis would be wrong. This much data is not available even to the Chairperson/members or the JS/US, so anyone claiming such trends is just doing creative writing. The level of secrecy and encryption that UPSC is maintaining post some recent events makes it almost next to impossible to get any data leaked, otherwise it would be a blot on the institution. Even if done, it is futile. It is all about the relative performance that matters. Even in optionals, if you have done well, you will get good marks regardless of the subject. You just have to be in the top bracket of that optional.

Beware of frauds disguising themselves as student saviours and defrauding them of their time, money and mental peace. Make informed choice from multiple credible sources, especially new aspirants! Stay away from people who do not take criticism or ensure credibility for their actions. Ask for marksheets before enrolling in any course. Beware of harmful impacts of AI. Happy learning!
