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

I did not go back to my home.
What is your daily motivation and does it work?
Anyway!
I was constantly staring into the ground
Relatively in a better position after my exam failures, but a void still exists!
I was cycling from one of my coaching institutes back to my PG.
I vividly remember that evening.
All achievers in their own way.
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.
I lacked a mentor when I needed one.
Appeared for the exam and instantly knew I would not be making it this time!

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.
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 parked my cycle near one of the parks en route to my PG.

This exam has an element of probability that no one can predict.
Cut to 2-3 months post prelims. Results were declared.
I was determined to clear the exam and then go back home.
Cleared multiple of them
And, after all, it was a matter of great pride and respect.

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).
Searched for my roll number.
I had heard rumours going around that the results had been declared.
And entered the park.
Your credentials do not matter!
After checking the PDF, I chained my cycle to a lamp post ..

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

This exam has its own way of humbling you.
I prepared for the next 3 years (2016 to 2019)
All the best!
A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.
“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..
I looked around me
I joined two coaching institutes - One for mains preparation and one for my optional subject.
And, now working as a digital marketing freelancer for international clients.
“Suryansh, let me tell you something. Do you feel the best of the best students from all over India prepare for this examination?”
It lasted approximately 10 months.
And, I had not made it.
The struggle was real. The teacher would non stop go through his lecture, and explain the concepts/ theory/ ideas etc.
A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.
Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.
And, so I began preparing for the exam with high hopes and determination.
It was summertime in Delhi. I was allotted a far-off centre in Najafgarh.
“I have more than 20+ years of teaching experience.”
And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.
I write answers on Quora that help UPSC and other government exam aspirants.
Thousands of students swarming in Old Rajendra Nagar.
If we haven’t met, my name is Suryansh Sodhani.
“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).”
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 hurriedly opened the holy PDF.
I did not move for the next 30 minutes..
Found an empty bench..
