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

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

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

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

What should every American know before traveling to the UK?

Found an empty bench..

It lasted approximately 10 months.

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

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

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

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

Keep your ego aside.

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

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

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

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

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

“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.

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

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

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

All the best!

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

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

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

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

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.

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

Why do I have an itch in my labia, white gooey and thick discharge which doesn't have a smell but my vagina does sometimes and both me and my partner do not have STDs, what is it?

Dropped them

“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.”

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

Why do people who aren't trans feel the need to put pronouns next to their name or picture? It seems so cringeworthy to me, to participate in that SJW paradigm of thought, like they are a spineless person who just goes along with the trends.

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

“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.”

Sint temporibus laudantium dolore id ea aliquam.

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

But, then it hit me hard.

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

Anyway!

And, I had not made it.

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 was alone in Delhi back then

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

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

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

I did not go back to my home.

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).

The batch sizes were huge!

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

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

Your credentials do not matter!

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

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

And..

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

It is almost impossible.

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

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

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

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

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 looked around me

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

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

Cleared multiple of them

I was constantly staring into the ground

I vividly remember that evening.

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.

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