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

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

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).

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

Why isn't bestiality illegal in most states? If children can't consent, then animals DEFINITELY can't consent. Why is being a pedophile a crime but zoophilia is not?

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

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.

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

Anyway!

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.

“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).”

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

I vividly remember that evening.

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

Your credentials do not matter!

It lasted approximately 10 months.

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

Keep your ego aside.

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.

Worked for a marketing agency

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

I was alone in Delhi back then

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

“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.”

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

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

Found an empty bench..

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.

I looked around me

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

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

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

And, I had not made it.

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

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

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

All the best!

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

Searched for my roll number.

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.
