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

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

Keep your ego aside.

Is it possible to remove producers’ voice tags or vocals from a beat (like purchase your track today)?

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

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

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

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

All achievers in their own way.

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, I had not made it.

It lasted approximately 10 months.

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

What does it mean when someone says "I'm feeling frisky"?

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

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

Anyway!

When British people write X after everything, are they being serious or trying not to be awkward?

I was alone in Delhi back then

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

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

I did not go back to my home.

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

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.

“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.”

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

“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.”

But, then it hit me hard.

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

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

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

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

Worked for a marketing agency

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

Found an empty bench..

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

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

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

.

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

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

It is almost impossible.

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.

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

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).

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

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

I vividly remember that evening.

Searched for my roll number.

The batch sizes were huge!

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

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

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

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

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

Your credentials do not matter!

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

Dropped them

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.

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

I was constantly staring into the ground

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

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

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

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

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

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

I looked around me

All the best!

And entered the park.
