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

Worked for a marketing agency

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

“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.”

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

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.

Dropped them

Autem nesciunt sint et reprehenderit non fuga beatae et.

And, I had not made it.

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

If everyone in Russia dropped into holes in the ground only never to return, would that be good for NATO and international peacekeepers? Can we convince Russians to be less diabolical, so they coexist? Does Putin stink like doo doo in the commode?

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

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 said, “Yes! I believe so.”

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

How did you know you weren't the narc?

I was constantly staring into the ground

“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.”

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

Searched for my roll number.

But, then it hit me hard.

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

Microsoft’s New Windows 11 Start Menu Is Finally Worth Exploring

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

The batch sizes were huge!

I vividly remember that evening.

Dad Assumed Tingling in His Hands Was Just Pins and Needles. Days Later, He Was Paralyzed: ‘Had to Sleep with My Eyes Open’ - AOL.com

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

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

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

I looked around me

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

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

What is your favourite summer outfit? Why?

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

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

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

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

And entered the park.

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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.

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

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

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

It is almost impossible.

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

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

All achievers in their own way.

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

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).

“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).”

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

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

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

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

I was alone in Delhi back then

.

It lasted approximately 10 months.

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.

Keep your ego aside.

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

.

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

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…

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

Your credentials do not matter!

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

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

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

All the best!
