About my background:
I am a graduate from NIT and cleared JEE Mains with 98%, also cleared JEE Advanced but couldn't get a seat in an IIT.
I am good at maths and reasoning; not sure about speed, but I can solve those questions.
GS I have to start from scratch and English at the end.
I'm not that confident, to be frank.

I also took a mock test to see where I stand and scored 97 marks.

Drop the idea; focus on getting a private job first.

Will tier-1 graduates earn double the salary of SSC candidates even at the fresher level? And after a few years, government jobs don't seem to have much salary hike, while tier-1 grads can earn CTC of 50-60 LPA. So, is it worth it?

I'm late, you can chase me from behind, bro.

Give it a try and see how it feels. Listen to yourself - if you truly want it, then go for it.

I need to study GS; you just have to practice the other three subjects thoroughly. If you have a similar background, DM me to discuss anything else.

Go for it, bhai. I even started my preparation today, took my first mock (2025 Shift 1) and got 96.

Why aren't you preparing for bank exams?
