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

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

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

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

All the best!

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

The batch sizes were huge!

All achievers in their own way.

And, I had not made it.

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

Why do men prefer low-maintanence women?

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

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

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

If Russia needs the resources to fund the war in Ukraine, why doesn’t it throw open its doors to visa free western tourism? Enough people would be interested, & it would start to get some hard currency as €, CHF, £, SEK, $, JPY in the tills at shops.

“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 was constantly staring into the ground

Debitis voluptas voluptatem ea sit.

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

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.

“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.”

Women like what they hear while men like what they see, it that true?

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…

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

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

Is Claude AI better than ChatGPT for Alexa?

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

Anyway!

It is almost impossible.

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

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

“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.”

Why didn't my ex fight for our relationship? He gave up so easily.

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

Searched for my roll number.

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

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

I was alone in Delhi back then

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

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

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

In your humble opinion, why does the narcissist mistake kindness for weakness in some people?

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

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

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.

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

And entered the park.

I've had tinnitus in my right ear for 2 years. I sleep with one earbuds in my left ear, but at the lowest possible sound volume, white noise. Is it considered safe to do so?

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

Keep your ego aside.

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

I looked around me

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

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

But, then it hit me hard.

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

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

.

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

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

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

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).

Worked for a marketing agency

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

Dropped them

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

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.

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

I did not go back to my home.

Cleared multiple of them

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

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

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

Found an empty bench..

And..

I vividly remember that evening.

It lasted approximately 10 months.

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