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

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

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

I did not go back to my home.

Why did Meghan become a Hollywood actress before marrying into royalty? Was this against protocol and tradition for future royals who marry into the UK monarchy?

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

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

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

Why do I want to be caught sucking dick by my wife?

“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.”

Keep your ego aside.

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

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

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

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

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

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

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

I was constantly staring into the ground

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

But, then it hit me hard.

Why does my best friend call me ugly and act like she’s joking, but today she looked at me and said “I wouldn’t lie to you”? What should I say back to her?

It is almost impossible.

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

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 did not move for the next 30 minutes..

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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.

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

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

I vividly remember that evening.

How do I stop someone from forcing/pestering me to become gay/bisexual when I already want to be straight?

Anyway!

All achievers in their own way.

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

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

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

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

“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).”

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

Searched for my roll number.

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

I was alone in Delhi back then

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

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

And entered the park.

And, I had not made it.

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

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

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

It lasted approximately 10 months.

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

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.

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

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

2017 June - I appeared for the first time for the UPSC Prelims (after a year-long preparation)

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

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

And..

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

The batch sizes were huge!

.

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

All the best!

Worked for a marketing agency

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

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

I looked around me

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.

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

“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.”

Cleared multiple of them
