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

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

The batch sizes were huge!

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.

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

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.

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

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

How did Nickelback gain a large fan base despite criticism of their music?

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

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

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).

Searched for my roll number.

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

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

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

I vividly remember that evening.

Scientists Unveil a Method to Give Every Human the Ability to See in the Dark - The Daily Galaxy

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

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

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

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

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

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

What happened to everybody's thick skin? It used to be that people really didn't get offended, now however, everybody gets offended by the least little thing.

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

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

But, then it hit me hard.

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

Worked for a marketing agency

Keep your ego aside.

Anyway!

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

Your credentials do not matter!

And..

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

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

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

.

And entered the park.

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

Dropped them

I did not go back to my home.

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

“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).”

I was constantly staring into the ground

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

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

And, I had not made it.

It lasted approximately 10 months.

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

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

“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.”

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

All achievers in their own way.

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

“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.”

All the best!
