This exam has an element of probability that no one can predict.
And, so I began preparing for the exam with high hopes and determination.
Your credentials do not matter!

And, now working as a digital marketing freelancer for international clients.
I was constantly staring into the ground

So, hopefully, my answers help aspirants who need help.
And, I had not made it.
I was alone in Delhi back then
Why do I feel so tired all the time even after a good night’s sleep?
In my head, it was a do-or-die situation for me.
And entered the park.
Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

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 remember the very next day my coaching institute professor telling me -
“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).”
Do most men prefer curvy women or skinny women?
There is no mathematical formula where you know that if the inputs are controlled, you can achieve X outcome.

I parked my cycle near one of the parks en route to my PG.
Dropped them
And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

And, after all, it was a matter of great pride and respect.
I joined two coaching institutes - One for mains preparation and one for my optional subject.
And..
What song are you listening to right now? What does it mean to you?
If one says, they can help you crack the exam with X AIR, it is difficult to do so.
It was summertime in Delhi. I was allotted a far-off centre in Najafgarh.
I was cycling from one of my coaching institutes back to my PG.

This exam has its own way of humbling you.
All achievers in their own way.
I had heard rumours going around that the results had been declared.

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 is the very reason you will hear IIT, IIM, AIIMS graduates failing to clear the UPSC.
A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.
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.
Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.
It is almost impossible.
“I have more than 20+ years of teaching experience.”
I did not go back to my home.
Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.
Worked for a marketing agency
Cut to 2-3 months post prelims. Results were declared.
I write answers on Quora that help UPSC and other government exam aspirants.
Appeared for the exam and instantly knew I would not be making it this time!
I prepared for the next 3 years (2016 to 2019)
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…
2016 I graduated from college. The same year I began preparing for the UPSC.
After checking the PDF, I chained my cycle to a lamp post ..
Anyway!
I was determined to clear the exam and then go back home.
I did not move for the next 30 minutes..
A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.
The batch sizes were huge!
“Suryansh, let me tell you something. Do you feel the best of the best students from all over India prepare for this examination?”
I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.
In case you are wondering, how did my story end?
I said, “Yes! I believe so.”
I vividly remember that evening.
It lasted approximately 10 months.
All the best!
Cleared multiple of them
I lacked a mentor when I needed one.
Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams
“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.”
Found an empty bench..
Relatively in a better position after my exam failures, but a void still exists!
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.
But, then it hit me hard.
