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

Dropped them

I lacked a mentor when I needed one.

What is the worst emotional pain you ever felt as an adult?

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).

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.

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

And, now working as a digital marketing freelancer for international clients.

Can being annoyed be a sign of getting angry?

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

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

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

What's your take on Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? How has it affected you?

And entered the park.

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

2017 June - I appeared for the first time for the UPSC Prelims (after a year-long preparation)

Cleared multiple of them

Anyway!

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

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

I looked around me

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

Keep your ego aside.

I did not go back to my home.

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

“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).”

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 was constantly staring into the ground

I vividly remember that evening.

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

Worked for a marketing agency

“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.”

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.

If we haven’t met, my name is Suryansh Sodhani.

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

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

“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.”

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

I prepared for the next 3 years (2016 to 2019)

It lasted approximately 10 months.

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 alone in Delhi back then

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