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

“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.”

Cleared multiple of them

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

What happens psychologically to a man the first time he gets penetrated anally?

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

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 is almost impossible.

What’s the craziest thing you’ve heard pretending to be asleep?

Searched for my roll number.

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

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

How did Farrah Fawcett die?

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

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

I looked around me

“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 said, “Yes! I believe so.”

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

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

And..

I was constantly staring into the ground

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

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

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

How do I get my body in shape?

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

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

I did not go back to my home.

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

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

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

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

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

Found an empty bench..

And entered the park.

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

Dropped them

I was alone in Delhi back then

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

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

Keep your ego aside.

It lasted approximately 10 months.

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

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

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

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

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

And, I had not made it.

But, then it hit me hard.

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

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

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

“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).”

Your credentials do not matter!

Worked for a marketing agency

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

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

All the best!

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

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