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

It is almost impossible.

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

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

Do you think it is likely that Maegor was presented a young dragon at some point, almost to the point of full-bonding, only to scorn it for Balerion in the end? If so, which one could it have been?

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.

It lasted approximately 10 months.

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

I was constantly staring into the ground

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

I looked around me

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

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

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…

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

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

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

Do you have any fantasies you are ashamed of?

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

The batch sizes were huge!

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

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.

Are today’s baseball pitchers faster than a few years ago, or is it that radar guns have improved and get the pitch speed as it is released rather than as it reaches the plate?

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

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

Your credentials do not matter!

As a guy, how do you know you if you are considered attractive?

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

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

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

Why am I sweating so much at night even though my room is really cold?

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

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.

Searched for my roll number.

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

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

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).

Why do atheists love to preach against Abrahamic religions and mock God? Even if they do not fear the eternal fire of hell, pious Muslims will certainly not leave them alone and will take brutal revenge until they surrender and repent of their sins.

Found an empty bench..

All the best!

“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.”

.

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

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

But, then it hit me hard.

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

And, I had not made it.

I vividly remember that evening.

I did not go back to my home.

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

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

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

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

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

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

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

Anyway!

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

Dropped them

All achievers in their own way.

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

Cleared multiple of them

“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.”
