It was summertime in Delhi. I was allotted a far-off centre in Najafgarh.
Searched for my roll number.

But, then it hit me hard.
All the best!
I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

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.
Your credentials do not matter!

So, hopefully, my answers help aspirants who need help.
After checking the PDF, I chained my cycle to a lamp post ..

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.
Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.
Hi booktokers! What are we currently reading? 😊📖
Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.
Cleared multiple of them
“Suryansh, let me tell you something. Do you feel the best of the best students from all over India prepare for this examination?”
The struggle was real. The teacher would non stop go through his lecture, and explain the concepts/ theory/ ideas etc.
Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams
2017 June - I appeared for the first time for the UPSC Prelims (after a year-long preparation)
A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.
.
The batch sizes were huge!
Relatively in a better position after my exam failures, but a void still exists!
A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.
I lacked a mentor when I needed one.
Anyway!
Keep your ego aside.
And, so I began preparing for the exam with high hopes and determination.
Appeared for the exam and instantly knew I would not be making it this time!
This is the very reason you will hear IIT, IIM, AIIMS graduates failing to clear 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…
In case you are wondering, how did my story end?
And..
I was constantly staring into the ground
It lasted approximately 10 months.
I was determined to clear the exam and then go back home.
Found an empty bench..
I vividly remember that evening.
I remember the very next day my coaching institute professor telling me -
“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.”
I looked around me
“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).”
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.

2016 I graduated from college. The same year I began preparing for the UPSC.
I was alone in Delhi back then
I parked my cycle near one of the parks en route to my PG.
I joined two coaching institutes - One for mains preparation and one for my optional subject.
“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.”
