(News) IAS Aspirants: CSAT paper was simple compared to the previous format
The
new exam pattern for the civil services exam did nothing to dampen the spirits
of young IAS aspirants in Tamil Nadu, 40,000 of whom took their preliminary
exams across the state on Sunday. According to many, the new question paper,
which was analytical, was easier than the previous pattern that was based on
memorising data.
The new Civil Service Aptitude Test (CSAT) included questions from updated science and technology and demanded logical thinking.
