social issues can be covered from upsc material or something else u people are preparing from?

For someone who knows only upsc paper 3 syllabus in economics; which optional would be better for phase 2 ?

Economics/finance ?

shift 2

QA- 10

REAS- 25

ENG - 23

GK - 53

CAT OBC.

What should I expect from the results and when can we expect it actually that's what keeping me on my toes.

Expected marks 
Ga - 40 to 45
English -20 to 22
Reasoning 22-25
Qa 8.5

Total 90.5 to 100.5 .. Obc.. What are my chances.. ?

70% of the registered users voted. The candidate A won the candidate B by 400 votes and got 12.5% votes than B. Find the total number of registered voters.. Please solve this gUys

what is the difference between bought out deals and private placement?

Since many of us wud be getting marks of QA in decimals also, Wud the rbi provide the cut off, specifically the QA cut off, in decimals also ?

Or wud the cut off be considered only in integer form?

This may impact selection chances of many.

We may be in/out thru QA cut off by way of decimals .

My take on Quant Cutoffs:

Assumption 1: RBI will not follow normalization

Assumption 2: Morning and Evening shift had same difficulty.

UR - 8-9

OBC - 6.5-7.5

SC/ST - 5-6

Last year cutoffs { UR-11, OBC-9(I guess), SC/ST - 7 }

This is copied from quora----


21k basic. Including DA and other allowances, it would go up to 53k. Salary revision is pending after which it would probably increase by 7k.

Benefits:
1) You get 2bhk in heart of the city to live. Never you need to worry about your accommodation till retirement.
2) If you have a car on your name, you will get 150 ltr worth petrol allowance on mere declaration (i.e. 11k per month)
3) Monthly allowances: Maid allowance (3k), mobile allowance (1.5k), 2k sodexo
4) Annual allowances: 4.5k medical on declaration, 4k book grant on declaration
5) Biannual allowances: 7k briefcase allowance, 7k spectacles allowances (if your spouse has spects too, then you can claim that too)
LTC/LFC tour allowance - 1lac per two years per person of the family (dependent members). Foreign tours are allowed
6) Generally your medical expenses will get reimbursed.

When on official tour, you always travel by air, live in quality hotel (such as Marine Plaza in Mumbai) and you get TA, DA too.

If you have a kid, you will get 3k per month for kid for his education.

5 Days week office.

Dont worry about allowances, just prepare for it.
