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

And..

But, then it hit me hard.

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

What are some common lies that addicts may tell themselves?

Found an empty bench..

“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.”

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

I did not go back to my home.

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

The batch sizes were huge!

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

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

Your credentials do not matter!

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…

Keep your ego aside.

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 am noticing that some people are saying if Trump stayed in office that there wouldn't be any wars such as Ukraine and Russia, but when Biden came in office war started. What are your thoughts?

All the best!

It is almost impossible.

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

Is there any truth to the claim that Kamala Harris got where she is by sleeping around, or is that just typical conservative bigotry?

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.

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

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.

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

“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.”

How can I fall asleep fast at night?

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

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

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.

Trump said we don't need Canada's lumber. So a good incentive and subsidy to compete against the highly subsidized Canadian lumber industry for home construction is needed. What would Canadians do when they have no one to export their timber to?

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

I vividly remember that evening.

And entered the park.

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

Searched for my roll number.

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

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

.

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

Dropped them

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

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).”

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

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

Cleared multiple of them

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

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

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

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

And, I had not made it.

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

I was alone in Delhi back then

Worked for a marketing agency

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

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

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

.

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

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

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

All achievers in their own way.

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

Anyway!

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

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