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 hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

How do I convince my husband that a threesome is okay?

“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.”

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

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

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

Found an empty bench..

All achievers in their own way.

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

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

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

I looked around me

It is almost impossible.

“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.”

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

Dropped them

I was constantly staring into the ground

Why do I feel like I want to suck a big dick after injecting meth?

All the best!

And, I had not made it.

And..

Why do flat earthers delete their answers after being proven wrong? Are they just being ignorant and arrogant?

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

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

“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).”

Why do I want to give up on men?

I did not go back to my home.

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

Searched for my roll number.

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

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

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).

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

I vividly remember that evening.

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

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.

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.

.

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

But, then it hit me hard.

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

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

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

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

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

I was alone in Delhi back then

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

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

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 did not move for the next 30 minutes..

Keep your ego aside.
