My take on CSAT paper

I'll come up with the detailed solution of CSAT paper by tomorrow evening. I want to be accurate. So I'll take sometime.
Its a tough paper.

As I am solving the CSAT Paper, there are some questions with multiple answers. The language is not clear and multiple answers are possible.

I am still solving the paper. This is the worst CSAT Paper I've seen.

Its about 3:30 A.M. early morning and I am just done solving the UPSC CSAT 2025 Paper. It took me considerable time to solve the entire paper primarily because:

1. Quantitative aptitude was much above the average level. There were a few low hanging fruits but they were too limited.
2. Some of the questions had a vague language, so to make an accurate answer key to the best of my ability, had to test a few questions from different perspetives to see what can be the nearest possible solution.
3. If anyone tells you that this paper was easy, either they don't know what has hit them or they are extremely genius and you should be very good friends with them.
4. Some English Reading Comprehensions were easy, but others had tricky options that would make it difficult for the aspirant (especially in the exam hall) to choose the correct option.
5. Logical reasoning was almost negligible with a few easy questions from coding-decoding and a not so easy question from Cubes and Dice.
6. I did both English and Hindi solutions, and because I don't maintain any content writers, so everything has to be done by myself.

I will record the solution video with detailed answers today (i.e. 26th May, 2025).

You will find discrepancy in answers with some of the big coaching answer keys. The best I can do is, explain in the solution video why I chose a particular answer. 🙂

All the best

Recording is on. 1 hour done.
Will keep you posted.
The solution I am recording is for future aspirants also, with every question I am explaining the methods and ways to tackle for the future aspirants.
So, 2026/2027/2028 aspirants do watch the entire session.

I am still recording.

2 hours recording done.
Not even half of the paper is done. Explaining every single question from the examiner perspective and the basics.

It will be a goldmine for 2026/2027 aspirants.

I never wanted to do a 1 hour live just to get views and tell abcd answers.
I wanted to help the future aspirants with this video and yet telling the answers to the current aspirants.
Wanted to shoot 2 birds together.

Recording done.
4:39 hours ka lecture hai
Dekh lena aap sab
Processing par laga diya hai

I don't usually like chest thumping about my victories. However, I think it is imperative for you to know the amount of hard work that is being put at the backend for your success.

ONLY FOR REFERENCE, I am sharing a PDF in which:

1. With each question, I have attached the screenshot of my notes if the question could be solved from my notes.

2. I have not attached any screenshot if that question was not from my notes.

11-12 questions out of 13 Polity Questions could be solved verbatim from the class notes. (I am not counting the Coir Board Question here - because that is more of a Indian Year Book type question)
