And, so I began preparing for the exam with high hopes and determination.
I looked around me
After checking the PDF, I chained my cycle to a lamp post ..

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.
And, I had not made it.
Worked for a marketing agency

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

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.
Do drop in a message, would be happy to talk.

Your credentials do not matter!
.
A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.
This exam has an element of probability that no one can predict.
But, then it hit me hard.
I said, “Yes! I believe so.”
I have a "fat pussy" and I'm super self cautions about it. Do guys think it's gross?
In my head, it was a do-or-die situation for me.
Anyway!
Searched for my roll number.

Found an empty bench..
In case you are wondering, how did my story end?
Cut to 2-3 months post prelims. Results were declared.
“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).”
Dropped them
If we haven’t met, my name is Suryansh Sodhani.
Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams
I vividly remember that evening.
And..

“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 have more than 20+ years of teaching experience.”
All the best!
What is the more common way to say "you're welcome" in French: “De rien” or “Pas de problème”?
Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.
It is almost impossible.
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…
All achievers in their own way.
I did not go back to my home.
I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

There is no mathematical formula where you know that if the inputs are controlled, you can achieve X outcome.
It lasted approximately 10 months.
I parked my cycle near one of the parks en route to my PG.
Why would my nipples hurt when I touch them?
It was summertime in Delhi. I was allotted a far-off centre in Najafgarh.
I write answers on Quora that help UPSC and other government exam aspirants.
Appeared for the exam and instantly knew I would not be making it this time!
I had heard rumours going around that the results had been declared.
2017 June - I appeared for the first time for the UPSC Prelims (after a year-long preparation)
I was constantly staring into the ground
Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.
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.
I was determined to clear the exam and then go back home.
And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.
And, after all, it was a matter of great pride and respect.
This exam has its own way of humbling you.
This is the very reason you will hear IIT, IIM, AIIMS graduates failing to clear the UPSC.
Keep your ego aside.
And entered the park.
So, hopefully, my answers help aspirants who need help.
I prepared for the next 3 years (2016 to 2019)
The batch sizes were huge!
2016 I graduated from college. The same year I began preparing for the UPSC.
If one says, they can help you crack the exam with X AIR, it is difficult to do so.
Relatively in a better position after my exam failures, but a void still exists!
I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.
I did not move for the next 30 minutes..
And, now working as a digital marketing freelancer for international clients.
I remember the very next day my coaching institute professor telling me -
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.”
The struggle was real. The teacher would non stop go through his lecture, and explain the concepts/ theory/ ideas etc.
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.

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