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.

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

It is almost impossible.

But, then it hit me hard.

I vividly remember that evening.

How did the use of cows change in Indian culture over time? Is the value of cattle still important in modern times?

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

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.

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…

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

Your credentials do not matter!

Why is my ex trying to provoke an argument with me?

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

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

I was constantly staring into the ground

How can I get a girlfriend? I am 26.

And entered the park.

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

Keep your ego aside.

How do I confess to my crush who had a traumatic past with his previous partner without losing the friendship?

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

I was alone in Delhi back then

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

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

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.

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

Anyway!

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.

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

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).

Searched for my roll number.

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

I did not go back to my home.

I looked around me

The batch sizes were huge!

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

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

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

“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.”

It lasted approximately 10 months.

Cleared multiple of them

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

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

And..

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Dropped them

All achievers in their own way.

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

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

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.

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

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

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

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

And, I had not made it.
