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

Why do a lot of women have a crush on my boyfriend when they know he is in a relationship with me? I am starting to feel insecure too. What should I do?

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).

Your credentials do not matter!

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

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.

What do gang stalkers want?

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

I did not go back to my home.

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

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

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

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

Is there a correlation between sweating during sleep and high body temperature and sugar levels?

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

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

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

All achievers in their own way.

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

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.

Anyway!

“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.”

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

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.

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

Dropped them

And..

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

I was constantly staring into the ground

.

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

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

I vividly remember that evening.

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

Keep your ego aside.

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

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

“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.”

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

But, then it hit me hard.

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.

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

And, I had not made it.

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

It is almost impossible.

“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).”

Searched for my roll number.

If one says, they can help you crack the exam with X AIR, it is difficult to do so.

Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.

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

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

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