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

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

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

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

How an atomic nucleus can have two different shapes with only slightly different energy levels - Phys.org

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

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

And, I had not made it.

But, then it hit me hard.

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

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

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

Why do people keep saying they have evidence and have presented it that proves you're wrong even though they have none and haven't presented anything? Furthermore, what do they think you're wrong about?

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

Dropped them

And entered the park.

What I have noticed is nearly every girl I try to connect with whom reject me are in their early 20s why is that the case?

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

And..

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

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

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

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

I was constantly staring into the ground

Found an empty bench..

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

Keep your ego aside.

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

It lasted approximately 10 months.

Has anyone had a romance scammer start messaging them on Quora? How do you know if the person is scamming you? What do you do?

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

I vividly remember that evening.

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

Why does my girlfriend keep asking me if I love her?

All the best!

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).

“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.”

Measles case confirmed in eastern Iowa - KCRG

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

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

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

Do you think Andrew Tate and Nigel Farage are part of a "similar phenomenon"?

I was alone in Delhi back then

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

Your credentials do not matter!

Searched for my roll number.

Anyway!

.

All achievers in their own way.

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

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

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

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

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

Cleared multiple of them

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

I looked around me

I did not go back to my home.

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.

“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).”

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

It is almost impossible.

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

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

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

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

The batch sizes were huge!

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.”

Worked for a marketing agency

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.
