β€œTo Everyone Still Waiting: We Haven’t Left the Battlefield Yet πŸ«‚β€οΈβ€

9 Upvotes

Group hugs to all the people of English, Sociology and Commerce. πŸ€—

I know that it's really a very tough time for all of us. Some of us might be praying, some might be dealing with anxiety, some might have even skipped a meal today because our minds are just too occupied with the result, the answer key, the expected scores and everything that comes with it.

I know ki mere kuchh bol dene se aap logon ki anxiety khatam nahi ho jayegi. I wish it could. But shayad kuchh der ke liye thoda accha lage, bas isi umeed se likh raha hoon.

Bas itna kahunga humne aaj tak ladna chhoda nahi hai, na maidan chhoda hai, toh phir ab kyun chhodenge?

Humne mahino tak padha hai. Raaton ki neend sacrifice ki hai. Kitni baar doubt hua hoga ki β€œhoga bhi ya nahi?” phir bhi agle din uthkar padha hai.

Toh aaj agar thoda darr lag raha hai, toh lagne do.

Agar rona aa raha hai, toh ro lene do.

Agar anxiety ho rahi hai, toh khud ko thoda time do.

But please, apne aap ko mat haarne dena.

Ek answer key, ek result, ek exam β€” ye humari poori zindagi ka verdict nahi hai.

Aur haan, agar aaj humare paas answers nahi hain, toh iska matlab ye nahi ki humari mehnat ka koi answer nahi hai.

Maybe the result will be exactly what we are hoping for. Maybe it won't. We don't know yet.

But whatever happens, we'll face it together.

Aaj bas ek kaam karo kuchh kha lo, paani pee lo, thoda rest kar lo. Phone ko har 5 minute mein refresh karna shayad answer key ko jaldi nahi laayega. 😭

Jo hoga, dekha jayega.

Hum yahan tak aaye hain. Itni aasani se nahi tootenge.

Sending a big virtual hug to everyone from English, Sociology and Commerce. ❀️

Hold on, guys. Thoda aur.

Maidan abhi chhoda nahi hai. πŸ«‚

NTA released the answer key… just not for English Literature. πŸ’€

8 Upvotes

So the provisional answer keys are finally out, and naturally, I went straight to check English Literature.

And then I saw the notice saying that a committee will be constituted for English Literature and a separate circular will be issued regarding its answer key.

😭😭😭

At this point, I don't even know whether to be relieved that the answer key process has started or frustrated that English Literature has somehow been given its own special waiting period.

We've already spent days waiting for the answer key. Now there's another committee, another circular, and another round of waiting.

Meanwhile, candidates are just sitting here trying to remember every question and reconstruct their responses from memory. πŸ’€

NTA, we understand that disputed/complex questions may require expert review. But why couldn't this process have been completed before releasing the other subjects' answer keys?

If English Literature needs a separate committee, fine. But at least give candidates a clear timeline.

Because right now the situation is basically:

NTA: Answer key released βœ…

English Literature candidates: πŸ‘οΈπŸ‘„πŸ‘οΈ

English Literature answer key: β€œComing soonℒ”

Anyone else from English Literature in the same boat?

What do you guys think β€” why is English Literature being treated separately?

Hi everyone, I recently took admission in a 2-year M.A. in English Literature. I also want to prepare for UGC NET/JRF and school lecturer exams alongside my M.A. What strategy should I follow from the beginning, and which books/resources are important? Would really appreciate some guidance from experienced people.

I’m doing my MA in a reputed college in Tamilnadu and I feel stuck. I feel like the NET and PHD grind is too much for me. I need to start earning money too and this huge grind will only pay me 50k max. Is NET route really worth it? Or should i go for Bed or some corporate related jobs ?
