2016 I graduated from college. The same year I began preparing for the UPSC.
In my head, it was a do-or-die situation for me.

Do drop in a message, would be happy to talk.
Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.
“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.”
Qui eaque occaecati facere et.
A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.
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?”

I prepared for the next 3 years (2016 to 2019)
And, so I began preparing for the exam with high hopes and determination.
I vividly remember that evening.
Relatively in a better position after my exam failures, but a void still exists!
This is the very reason you will hear IIT, IIM, AIIMS graduates failing to clear the UPSC.
I had heard rumours going around that the results had been declared.
.
It is almost impossible.
A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.
Cut to 2-3 months post prelims. Results were declared.
It lasted approximately 10 months.

There is no mathematical formula where you know that if the inputs are controlled, you can achieve X outcome.
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.
This exam has an element of probability that no one can predict.

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.
It was summertime in Delhi. I was allotted a far-off centre in Najafgarh.

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.
And, after all, it was a matter of great pride and respect.

Searched for my roll number.
I was cycling from one of my coaching institutes back to my PG.
This exam has its own way of humbling you.
