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

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

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

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

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

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

Have you experimented with bestiality?

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

Found an empty bench..

I vividly remember that evening.

Why are white women so hard to date?

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

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.

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…

And entered the park.

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

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

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

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.

The batch sizes were huge!

“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.”

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

The Center of Our Universe Does Not Exist. A Physicist Explains Why. - ScienceAlert

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

But, then it hit me hard.

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

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

I did not go back to my home.

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

Your credentials do not matter!

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

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

Dropped them

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

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

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

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 hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

I was alone in Delhi back then

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

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

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

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

Worked for a marketing agency

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

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

Keep your ego aside.

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

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

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

It is almost impossible.

.

“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).”

All the best!

And..

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

I was constantly staring into the ground

Anyway!

And, I had not made it.

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

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

It lasted approximately 10 months.

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

“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.”
