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

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

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

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.

Why do men find women with bigger buttocks attractive?

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

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

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

The batch sizes were huge!

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

What's a memory from your childhood that shaped who you are today?

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

All achievers in their own way.

I vividly remember that evening.

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

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

Quia qui rem laborum itaque vel.

I looked around me

I was constantly staring into the ground

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

I was alone in Delhi back then

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

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

What are the symptoms of Sjogren’s?

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

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

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

How do you like to be pegged?

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

Dropped them

Anyway!

Why do siblings (or other close relatives) stop visiting each other as they grow older? Why does this happen with so many people nowadays?

“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).”

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

.

What is the typical mentality of the Indian society?

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

It lasted approximately 10 months.

Cleared multiple of them

Worked for a marketing agency

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

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)

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

.

All the best!

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

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

“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..

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

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

And entered the park.

I did not go back to my home.

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

Found an empty bench..

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

Searched for my roll number.

Your credentials do not matter!

But, then it hit me hard.

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

Keep your ego aside.

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

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

And, I had not made it.

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).

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.

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

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

It is almost impossible.

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

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

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

“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.

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

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