There is no objective answer to this question. It depends on various factors which are beyond the control of the candidates. Every year is different and so the UPSC Prelims question paper. The Commission does not mention the weightage to any section and can ask any number of questions from any section. This is the reason, the candidates find it difficult to predict the questions and the difficulty level is also a subjective factor.
None the less, we can say Good attempts vary by subject. For instance, in the General Studies Paper I, good attempts might be:
- Geography: 10-13 questions
- History: 8-12 questions
- Polity: 9-11 questions
- Environment
