And entered the park.
And, so I began preparing for the exam with high hopes and determination.
Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.
I was alone in Delhi back then
In my head, it was a do-or-die situation for me.
I parked my cycle near one of the parks en route to my PG.

“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 said, “Yes! I believe so.”
Appeared for the exam and instantly knew I would not be making it this time!

And, I had not made it.
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 looked around me
“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.”
I vividly remember that evening.
After checking the PDF, I chained my cycle to a lamp post ..
It is almost impossible.
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).
It lasted approximately 10 months.
Found an empty bench..
Cut to 2-3 months post prelims. Results were declared.
I was cycling from one of my coaching institutes back to my PG.
And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.
I write answers on Quora that help UPSC and other government exam aspirants.
I lacked a mentor when I needed one.
“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.”
.
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.
Searched for my roll number.
And, after all, it was a matter of great pride and respect.
Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.
Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.
I did not move for the next 30 minutes..
I joined two coaching institutes - One for mains preparation and one for my optional subject.
.
And, now working as a digital marketing freelancer for international clients.
I remember the very next day my coaching institute professor telling me -
So, hopefully, my answers help aspirants who need help.
“Suryansh, let me tell you something. Do you feel the best of the best students from all over India prepare for this examination?”
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.
The batch sizes were huge!
I was determined to clear the exam and then go back home.
Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams
The struggle was real. The teacher would non stop go through his lecture, and explain the concepts/ theory/ ideas etc.
I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.
