Why upsc is considered the toughest exam in the whole world?

Anyway!

I looked around me

Do drop in a message, would be happy to talk.

What kind of person makes you think "how come there are people like that"?

After checking the PDF, I chained my cycle to a lamp post ..

“But, it is nearly impossible for one to predict who will make it to the ‘holy list’. Yes! I can say that if an aspirant who has done X, Y, and Z can increase their chances of selection, but it is just not enough. There is always a matter of luck (or, probability).”

You would have to be on your toes. If your mind drifts apart for even a second, you will lose your chain of thoughts and notes.

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

Keep your ego aside.

It was summertime in Delhi. I was allotted a far-off centre in Najafgarh.

I write answers on Quora that help UPSC and other government exam aspirants.

And, so I began preparing for the exam with high hopes and determination.

And, now working as a digital marketing freelancer for international clients.

Why do guys look up TikTok girls instead of porn? My boyfriend of two years, looks up big boobs on TikTok. He has never once cheated on me, not on social media or IRL. He claims it’s to “get off real quick if I’m not home.”

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

If we haven’t met, my name is Suryansh Sodhani.

If your only job was to make people laugh at you and that’s all you were good for, would you be depressed?

“Suryansh, let me tell you something. Do you feel the best of the best students from all over India prepare for this examination?”

So, hopefully, my answers help aspirants who need help.

Found an empty bench..

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

Cleared multiple of them

I was determined to clear the exam and then go back home.

I vividly remember that evening.

I was alone in Delhi back then

“I have more than 20+ years of teaching experience.”

In case you are wondering, how did my story end?

I prepared for the next 3 years (2016 to 2019)

Searched for my roll number.

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

And, after all, it was a matter of great pride and respect.

My wife has a bunch of really attractive friends, and she expects me to never say anything to her about how beautiful they are. Does this seem fair? I love my wife, and just commenting shouldn’t hurt anything, right?

Worked for a marketing agency

I remember the very next day my coaching institute professor telling me -

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

It is almost impossible.

500 students in each batch. God forbid if you were late to the class - you would have to push your way through the seats. (Old aspirants reading this know which institute I am talking about).

I did not go back to my home.

Your credentials do not matter!

So, yes, the UPSC is considered the toughest exam in the world because there is a ‘luck’ factor coupled with subjectivity in the exam process.

And..

“I, too, was an aspirant, 20 years back. I have met board toppers, state board toppers, and college toppers with more than 9+ CGPA who prepare for this exam.”

This exam has an element of probability that no one can predict.

This is the very reason you will hear IIT, IIM, AIIMS graduates failing to clear the UPSC.

But, then it hit me hard.

Cut to 2-3 months post prelims. Results were declared.

It lasted approximately 10 months.

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

The struggle was real. The teacher would non stop go through his lecture, and explain the concepts/ theory/ ideas etc.

I joined two coaching institutes - One for mains preparation and one for my optional subject.

And, I had not made it.

Each class used to be 2.5 hours each. Making it a total of 5 hours of coaching classes daily. The classes used to be 7 days a week.

2016 I graduated from college. The same year I began preparing for the UPSC.

All achievers in their own way.

Dare you, peep in your neighbour's notebook. After all, it is a national-level competitive exam - people tend to be extremely competitive. Tough days…

I had heard rumours going around that the results had been declared.

“All of these students are great from an academic point of view. They have always scored 90%+ during their school days, some have even scored 9.6 CGPA and above during their 10th boards.”

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

There is no mathematical formula where you know that if the inputs are controlled, you can achieve X outcome.

All the best!

Appeared for the exam and instantly knew I would not be making it this time!

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

The batch sizes were huge!

I was cycling from one of my coaching institutes back to my PG.

In my head, it was a do-or-die situation for me.

I was constantly staring into the ground

If one says, they can help you crack the exam with X AIR, it is difficult to do so.

Relatively in a better position after my exam failures, but a void still exists!

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

And entered the park.

I parked my cycle near one of the parks en route to my PG.
