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

.

But, then it hit me hard.

“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.”

Is there any evidence to support the existence of people who have experienced "gangstalking"? Or is it a psychological phenomenon?

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

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

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

All the best!

The batch sizes were huge!

Searched for my roll number.

How would you respond to Rep. Nancy Mace's claim that the GOP platform is more in line with what the American people want compared to the left?

Found an empty bench..

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

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

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

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

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

How much higher are McDonald's prices going to go?

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 an element of probability that no one can predict.

Anyway!

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

Is there any way that I can sign up for multiple newsletters from as many companies as possible at once using a single form?

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

And entered the park.

.

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).

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

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

Keep your ego aside.

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?”

“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).”

“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.”

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

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.

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

It is almost impossible.

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

And, I had not made it.

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

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

I did not go back to my home.

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

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

It lasted approximately 10 months.

I was alone in Delhi back then

Worked for a marketing agency

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

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

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

I looked around me

I vividly remember that evening.

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

I was constantly staring into the ground
