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

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

The batch sizes were huge!

Anyway!

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

I was alone in Delhi back then

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

How do you take your erotic photos and how do you choose the poses?

Your credentials do not matter!

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

I was constantly staring into the ground

Can someone write me a sex story?

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.

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

And entered the park.

All achievers in their own way.

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

Why is Donald Trump so obsessed with Taylor Swift not supporting him? Why would he think she would want to support a sociopathic liar who pushes election lies in order to stay in political power?

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

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

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

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

All the best!

I’ve tracked Amazon Prime Day for 11 years. Here are the 8 best early TV deals - CNN

And, I had not made it.

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

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

Do you think cheating is that bad?

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

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

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

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

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

I looked around me

After 70 years of the crappiest computers ever made, why does IBM exist?

Found an empty bench..

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.

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

“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 did not move for the next 30 minutes..

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

I did not go back to my home.

It is almost impossible.

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

“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.”

But, then it hit me hard.

Searched for my roll number.

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

Dropped them

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

It lasted approximately 10 months.

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

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

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

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

“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.”

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

Keep your ego aside.

And..

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

I vividly remember that evening.

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).

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

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

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

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

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…

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

Worked for a marketing agency

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

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

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

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.

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