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

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

I did not go back to my home.

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

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

I looked around me

It is almost impossible.

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

Keep your ego aside.

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

Which laptop should I buy if I can't use a specific AI tool on my phone like pictory.ai?

I was alone in Delhi back then

I vividly remember that evening.

Searched for my roll number.

Is it bad to sleep with music in your ears?

I was constantly staring into the ground

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

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

But, then it hit me hard.

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

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

“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.”

Dropped 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.”

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

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

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

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

My boss called me on a Saturday to let me know he that due to financial reasons, I was no longer needed effective immediatley. 3 days later, he sends me a text asking about work issues. How do I respond?

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

All achievers in their own way.

Why do I feel worthless most of the time?

The batch sizes were huge!

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.

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.

Would you join a gym or workout at home and why?

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

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

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

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

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

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

“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).”

Cleared multiple of them

Your credentials do not matter!

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

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.

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

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

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

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).

And entered the park.

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.

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

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

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

All the best!

And..

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

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…

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

And, I had not made it.

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

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

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

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

Found an empty bench..
