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

Anyway!

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

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

It lasted approximately 10 months.

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

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

Why do you think there is growing support for far-right parties in Europe?

I vividly remember that evening.

Cleared multiple of them

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

Is there anything you did that you regret? If so, what is it, and why?

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

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

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

Should I get into any menial job without any thinking? I am just a BA pass and belong to the middle class.

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

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

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

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

Searched for my roll number.

I did not go back to my home.

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

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).

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…

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

Why does Rahul Gandhi have so many haters?

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

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.

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

Dropped them

Found an empty bench..

Why do people ask stupid questions on Quora when they instead could ask ChatGPT?

The batch sizes were huge!

“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 hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

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

Mega Millions Jackpot Won in Virginia - Mega Millions

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

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

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

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

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

I looked around me

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

And entered the park.

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

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

Keep your ego aside.

I was alone in Delhi back then

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

All the best!

Your credentials do not matter!

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

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

All achievers in their own way.

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

“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.”

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

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

Worked for a marketing agency

And..

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.

But, then it hit me hard.

.

It is almost impossible.

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

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

I was constantly staring into the ground

And, I had not made it.
