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

.

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.

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

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

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

I was alone in Delhi back then

Why are people outraged over Latina actress, Rachel Zegler, being cast to play Snow White in the live action remake of Disney’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs?

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 its own way of humbling you.

Your credentials do not matter!

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

Found an empty bench..

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

Dropped them

I looked around me

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

I vividly remember that evening.

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

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

All the best!

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

And..

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

How did you react when your doctor ordered a colonoscopy?

Anyway!

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

It is almost impossible.

Every time I brush my hair when it’s dry it poofs up like a poof ball. But if I don’t brush it looks tangled and messy. I know I have some sort of curl or wavy hair, ive tried gels to define curls but it makes my hair frizzy and messy. What do I do?

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

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.

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

“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).”

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).

And, I had not made it.

Keep your ego aside.

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

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

I did not go back to my home.

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

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

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

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

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

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

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

Cleared multiple of them

I was constantly staring into the ground

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

The batch sizes were huge!

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…

“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.”

“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.

“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.”

But, then it hit me hard.

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

It lasted approximately 10 months.

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

And entered the park.

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

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

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

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

Searched for my roll number.

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