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

Anyway!
All achievers in their own way.
What do you think about Anthony Scaramucci saying that JD in JD Vance stands for "Just Dull?"
And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.
This is the very reason you will hear IIT, IIM, AIIMS graduates failing to clear the UPSC.
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.
What are some ways to cope with paranoid thoughts about being gangstalked or targeted individuals?
It was summertime in Delhi. I was allotted a far-off centre in Najafgarh.
Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.
I was constantly staring into the ground
It lasted approximately 10 months.
I remember the very next day my coaching institute professor telling me -
Searched for my roll number.
.
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.
And..
Why do I get spun and then want big fat cocks to suck?
A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.
A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.
“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, so I began preparing for the exam with high hopes and determination.
There is no mathematical formula where you know that if the inputs are controlled, you can achieve X outcome.
I joined two coaching institutes - One for mains preparation and one for my optional subject.

So, hopefully, my answers help aspirants who need help.
2017 June - I appeared for the first time for the UPSC Prelims (after a year-long preparation)
This exam has an element of probability that no one can predict.
If we haven’t met, my name is Suryansh Sodhani.
I parked my cycle near one of the parks en route to my PG.
Found an empty bench..
I looked around me
I said, “Yes! I believe so.”
All the best!
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).
.
“Suryansh, let me tell you something. Do you feel the best of the best students from all over India prepare for this examination?”
Cut to 2-3 months post prelims. Results were declared.
And, now working as a digital marketing freelancer for international clients.
And, I had not made it.
Keep your ego aside.
I did not go back to my home.
I vividly remember that evening.
This exam has its own way of humbling you.
Dropped them
I prepared for the next 3 years (2016 to 2019)
Appeared for the exam and instantly knew I would not be making it this time!
And, after all, it was a matter of great pride and respect.
Worked for a marketing agency
But, then it hit me hard.
Relatively in a better position after my exam failures, but a void still exists!
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…
“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 was determined to clear the exam and then go back home.
In my head, it was a do-or-die situation for me.
I had heard rumours going around that the results had been declared.
I was cycling from one of my coaching institutes back to my PG.
The batch sizes were huge!
Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.
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 did not move for the next 30 minutes..
“I have more than 20+ years of teaching experience.”
Cleared multiple of them
“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).”
2016 I graduated from college. The same year I began preparing for the UPSC.
In case you are wondering, how did my story end?
After checking the PDF, I chained my cycle to a lamp post ..
Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.
I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.
I write answers on Quora that help UPSC and other government exam aspirants.
Your credentials do not matter!
