But, then it hit me hard.
I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

It is almost impossible.
And, after all, it was a matter of great pride and respect.
Dropped them
Searched for my roll number.

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

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.
Keep your ego aside.
And, so I began preparing for the exam with high hopes and determination.

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

2016 I graduated from college. The same year I began preparing for the UPSC.
I looked around me
Does eating bread before bed make you fat? If so, why?
It lasted approximately 10 months.
I joined two coaching institutes - One for mains preparation and one for my optional subject.
This exam has an element of probability that no one can predict.
I vividly remember that evening.
Relatively in a better position after my exam failures, but a void still exists!

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.
All the best!
And, now working as a digital marketing freelancer for international clients.
Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams
And entered the park.

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.
So, hopefully, my answers help aspirants who need help.
There is no mathematical formula where you know that if the inputs are controlled, you can achieve X outcome.

The batch sizes were huge!
Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.
I write answers on Quora that help UPSC and other government exam aspirants.
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.
Found an empty bench..
Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.
2017 June - I appeared for the first time for the UPSC Prelims (after a year-long preparation)
I was alone in Delhi back then
I was determined to clear the exam and then go back home.
Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.
It was summertime in Delhi. I was allotted a far-off centre in Najafgarh.
And..
After checking the PDF, I chained my cycle to a lamp post ..
And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.
In my head, it was a do-or-die situation for me.
I had heard rumours going around that the results had been declared.
Do drop in a message, would be happy to talk.
I was cycling from one of my coaching institutes back to my PG.
I did not go back to my home.
If one says, they can help you crack the exam with X AIR, it is difficult to do so.
“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.”
Appeared for the exam and instantly knew I would not be making it this time!
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).
Anyway!
This is the very reason you will hear IIT, IIM, AIIMS graduates failing to clear the UPSC.
And, I had not made it.
All achievers in their own way.
I lacked a mentor when I needed one.
If we haven’t met, my name is Suryansh Sodhani.
I did not move for the next 30 minutes..
In case you are wondering, how did my story end?
The struggle was real. The teacher would non stop go through his lecture, and explain the concepts/ theory/ ideas etc.
“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).”

A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.
I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.
I was constantly staring into the ground
This exam has its own way of humbling you.
