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

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

I looked around me

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

All achievers in their own way.

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…

I am interested in gang stalking tactics. How do covert agents use street theater and false narratives to torment targeted individuals?

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

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

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

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.

All the best!

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

“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).”

“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.”

And..

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

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

What is your review of "Regent", episode 5 of Season 2 House of the Dragon?

Found an empty bench..

It is almost impossible.

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

It lasted approximately 10 months.

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

Searched for my roll number.

As a woman, what would be you response to a male friend’s offer of a full body massage?

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

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

I did not go back to my home.

“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.”

Cleared multiple of them

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

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

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

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

Do you regret being married to your current wife?

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

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

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

Why do you think they're treating Diddy worse than Tate? Is it because of racism?

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

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 vividly remember that evening.

.

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

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

Anyway!

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

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

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.

And, I had not made it.

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

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

And entered the park.

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

Keep your ego aside.

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

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

Dropped them

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

But, then it hit me hard.

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).

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

The batch sizes were huge!

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

I was constantly staring into the ground

Worked for a marketing agency

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

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

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

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

I was alone in Delhi back then

Your credentials do not matter!

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