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

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

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

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 was alone in Delhi back then

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

I was constantly staring into the ground

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

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

What is your wildest experience in Bangalore that you haven’t told anyone?

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

It is almost impossible.

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.

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

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

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

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

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

“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.”

And entered the park.

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

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

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).

All achievers in their own way.

Searched for my roll number.

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

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 looked around me

Consequatur corporis quos perspiciatis tenetur vel totam.

Keep your ego aside.

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

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

How do I become mentally strong?

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

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

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

What is the best music album of all time?

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

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

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

And, I had not made it.

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

The batch sizes were huge!

It lasted approximately 10 months.

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

I vividly remember that evening.

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

I did not go back to my home.

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

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

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

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

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

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

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

.

Found an empty bench..

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

All the best!

“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).”

Cleared multiple of them

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

Your credentials do not matter!

But, then it hit me hard.

Worked for a marketing agency

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

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

Anyway!
