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

Cleared multiple of them

And entered the park.

But, then it hit me hard.

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

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

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

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

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).

Regardless of your opinion about Trump, do you agree with his idea that globalism is bad for America?

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

Dropped them

Decade after decade, century after century the Middle East has been a disaster for anyone thinking peace can be achieved. Would it not be better to just leave the Middle East to its own devices and everyone else stay out of it all?

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

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

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

I was constantly staring into the ground

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

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

Honestly! Do you people actually watch all that nonsense produced by the nitwit network television stations or do they just claim you do?

Worked for a marketing agency

.

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

Are British people in awe when someone from the United States visits their country?

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

It is almost impossible.

I was alone in Delhi back then

What is Rejuran Healer?

Searched for my roll number.

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

All achievers in their own way.

Is it just me, or is it hard to find novels that are different compared to each other without the variety of them having to be a mystery/crime, and romance/fantasy?

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

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

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

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.

And..

Your credentials do not matter!

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

Anyway!

Found an empty bench..

Democrat voters, why are you so naive, easy to manipulate, can't see a liar standing right in front of you and why won't you research your party? You will find they have a plan for all W. Nations and it's evil.

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

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

I did not go back to my home.

It lasted approximately 10 months.

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 vividly remember that evening.

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

“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.”

Keep your ego aside.

And, I had not made it.

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

The batch sizes were huge!

All the best!

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…

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

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

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

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

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

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

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

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 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.”

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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