Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

I did not go back to my home.

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

2016 I graduated from college. The same year I began preparing for the UPSC.

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

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

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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.

Your credentials do not matter!

Its year 2041, and president Hunter Biden has ordered every republican who sweared at him to be arrested and shot. I am on my way to the death row listening to the cheer of the Liberal mob chanting death death death. How can I escape?

“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 was constantly staring into the ground

And..

Sometime ago, the Iranian Minister said that a US Navy aircraft carrier would be an easy target for 300 speed boats armed with Katyusha rocket launchers. Is this true?

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

I did not move for the next 30 minutes..

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

Anyway!

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

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

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

All the best!

I was alone in Delhi back then

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

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

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

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

It is almost impossible.

And, I had not made it.

Worked for a marketing agency

I had heard rumours going around that the results had been declared.

The batch sizes were huge!

“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).”

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.

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

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

There is no mathematical formula where you know that if the inputs are controlled, you can achieve X outcome.

I vividly remember that evening.

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).

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

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

In my head, it was a do-or-die situation for me.
