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

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.”
I lacked a mentor when I needed one.
I was cycling from one of my coaching institutes back to my PG.
I did not go back to my home.

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.
All the best!

It was summertime in Delhi. I was allotted a far-off centre in Najafgarh.
And, I had not made it.
A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.
I was constantly staring into the ground
I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

I joined two coaching institutes - One for mains preparation and one for my optional subject.
I vividly remember that evening.
I remember the very next day my coaching institute professor telling 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).”
“I have more than 20+ years of teaching experience.”
“Suryansh, let me tell you something. Do you feel the best of the best students from all over India prepare for this examination?”
Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

In case you are wondering, how did my story end?
There is no mathematical formula where you know that if the inputs are controlled, you can achieve X outcome.

And entered the park.
“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.”
Dropped them
A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.
I had heard rumours going around that the results had been declared.
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…
This is the very reason you will hear IIT, IIM, AIIMS graduates failing to clear the UPSC.
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).
2017 June - I appeared for the first time for the UPSC Prelims (after a year-long preparation)
I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.
All achievers in their own way.
But, then it hit me hard.
If we haven’t met, my name is Suryansh Sodhani.
Found an empty bench..
I parked my cycle near one of the parks en route to my PG.
2016 I graduated from college. The same year I began preparing for the UPSC.
And..
I was alone in Delhi back then
Relatively in a better position after my exam failures, but a void still exists!
I said, “Yes! I believe so.”
Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.
Anyway!
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.
After checking the PDF, I chained my cycle to a lamp post ..
And, so I began preparing for the exam with high hopes and determination.
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.
Cut to 2-3 months post prelims. Results were declared.
I looked around me
I write answers on Quora that help UPSC and other government exam aspirants.
If one says, they can help you crack the exam with X AIR, it is difficult to do so.
This exam has an element of probability that no one can predict.
So, hopefully, my answers help aspirants who need help.
In my head, it was a do-or-die situation for me.
This exam has its own way of humbling you.
Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.
Appeared for the exam and instantly knew I would not be making it this time!
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.
It lasted approximately 10 months.
Worked for a marketing agency
I was determined to clear the exam and then go back home.
