After checking the PDF, I chained my cycle to a lamp post ..
And..
This exam has an element of probability that no one can predict.
Why do women consider 80% of men as unattractive?
But, then it hit me hard.
“I have more than 20+ years of teaching experience.”
.
I said, “Yes! I believe so.”
Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.
In case you are wondering, how did my story end?

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

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.
Dropped them
Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams
I was alone in Delhi back then
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, so I began preparing for the exam with high hopes and determination.
If one says, they can help you crack the exam with X AIR, it is difficult to do so.
“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.”
And, after all, it was a matter of great pride and respect.

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

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

This exam has its own way of humbling you.
I was cycling from one of my coaching institutes back to my PG.
And entered the park.

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..
Searched for my roll number.
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.

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.

It was summertime in Delhi. I was allotted a far-off centre in Najafgarh.
2017 June - I appeared for the first time for the UPSC Prelims (after a year-long preparation)
I lacked a mentor when I needed one.
The batch sizes were huge!
“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.”
A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.
Found an empty bench..
I joined two coaching institutes - One for mains preparation and one for my optional subject.
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!
2016 I graduated from college. The same year I began preparing for the UPSC.
I write answers on Quora that help UPSC and other government exam aspirants.
And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.
All achievers in their own way.
“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).”
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?”
I did not go back to my home.
It is almost impossible.
Your credentials do not matter!
I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.
I remember the very next day my coaching institute professor telling me -
I had heard rumours going around that the results had been declared.
Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.
If we haven’t met, my name is Suryansh Sodhani.
Relatively in a better position after my exam failures, but a void still exists!
I vividly remember that evening.
This is the very reason you will hear IIT, IIM, AIIMS graduates failing to clear the UPSC.
I was constantly staring into the ground
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.
