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

I was alone in Delhi back then
And entered the park.
2016 I graduated from college. The same year I began preparing for the UPSC.

Do drop in a message, would be happy to talk.
If we haven’t met, my name is Suryansh Sodhani.
“Suryansh, let me tell you something. Do you feel the best of the best students from all over India prepare for this examination?”
What is the most gay experience with your dad?
I was cycling from one of my coaching institutes back to my PG.
It lasted approximately 10 months.
All the best!
Do you believe that Jesus was God on Earth?
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.
Found an empty bench..
“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..
“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).”
This exam has an element of probability that no one can predict.

Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.
Worked for a marketing agency
This exam has its own way of humbling you.
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.
Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams
Cleared multiple of them
A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.
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.

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).
Relatively in a better position after my exam failures, but a void still exists!
I prepared for the next 3 years (2016 to 2019)
What are some common historical misconceptions?
I had heard rumours going around that the results had been declared.
I looked around me
I vividly remember that evening.

Searched for my roll number.
Cut to 2-3 months post prelims. Results were declared.
I was determined to clear the exam and then go back home.
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…
In my head, it was a do-or-die situation for me.
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 said, “Yes! I believe so.”
After checking the PDF, I chained my cycle to a lamp post ..
And, now working as a digital marketing freelancer for international clients.
Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.
It was summertime in Delhi. I was allotted a far-off centre in Najafgarh.
And, so I began preparing for the exam with high hopes and determination.
I was constantly staring into the ground
The batch sizes were huge!
Anyway!
Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.
I lacked a mentor when I needed one.
And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.
I did not go back to my home.
A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.
Your credentials do not matter!
All achievers in their own way.
I write answers on Quora that help UPSC and other government exam aspirants.
And, I had not made it.
Appeared for the exam and instantly knew I would not be making it this time!
“I have more than 20+ years of teaching experience.”
There is no mathematical formula where you know that if the inputs are controlled, you can achieve X outcome.
But, then it hit me hard.
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 is the very reason you will hear IIT, IIM, AIIMS graduates failing to clear the UPSC.
It is almost impossible.
I parked my cycle near one of the parks en route to my PG.
Keep your ego aside.
I joined two coaching institutes - One for mains preparation and one for my optional subject.
I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.
I remember the very next day my coaching institute professor telling me -
I did not move for the next 30 minutes..
“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.”
If one says, they can help you crack the exam with X AIR, it is difficult to do so.
