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

I was constantly staring into the ground

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

Why did Kamala say immigrants eating cats isn’t real when there’s police bodycam footage of it happening?

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.

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

I was alone in Delhi back then

Why do gun owners feel the need to defend themselves with deadly weapons? Can they not just talk things out like civilized people do?

Anyway!

Found an empty bench..

“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).”

Why do you think most harem anime and manga have lame male protagonists that would be considered losers and pathetic by most people?

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

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

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

It lasted approximately 10 months.

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

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 said, “Yes! I believe so.”

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

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

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

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

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

What are some highly recommended call center projects?

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

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

Scientists reveal the conflict-ridden history of an important biblical city - The Brighter Side of News

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

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.

Searched for my roll number.

It is almost impossible.

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

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

I vividly remember that evening.

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

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

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

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

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

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

.

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

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

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

Worked for a marketing agency

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

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

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

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

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

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

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

I did not go back to my home.

All the best!

But, then it hit me hard.

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.

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

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

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

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

And entered the park.

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.”

.

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

And..

All achievers in their own way.
