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

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

Dropped them

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

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

It lasted approximately 10 months.

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

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

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

And entered the park.

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

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

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

All achievers in their own way.

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

I vividly remember that evening.

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

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

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

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

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).

All the best!

I did not go back to my home.

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

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

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

I was alone in Delhi back then

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

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.

Anyway!

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

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.

And, I had not made it.

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

“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).”

But, then it hit me hard.

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

Cleared multiple of them

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Searched for my roll number.

“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.”

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

Worked for a marketing agency

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

I was constantly staring into the ground

“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.”

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

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

I looked around me

Your credentials do not matter!

It is almost impossible.

The batch sizes were huge!

And..

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

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

This exam has its own way of humbling you.
