2016 I graduated from college. The same year I began preparing for the UPSC.

Worked for a marketing agency

A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.

What is the meaning behind people claiming to hear voices of God in their heads without anyone else hearing them? Is this a sign of mental illness or possession by an evil spirit?

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

I had heard rumours going around that the results had been declared.

Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.

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

Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams

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

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

The struggle was real. The teacher would non stop go through his lecture, and explain the concepts/ theory/ ideas etc.

I joined two coaching institutes - One for mains preparation and one for my optional subject.

“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.”

It was summertime in Delhi. I was allotted a far-off centre in Najafgarh.

But, then it hit me hard.

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.

Keep your ego aside.

“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.

So, hopefully, my answers help aspirants who need help.

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

This exam has its own way of humbling you.

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

I looked around me

I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.

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

I vividly remember that evening.

And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.

Do drop in a message, would be happy to talk.

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

The batch sizes were huge!

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).

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 did not move for the next 30 minutes..

Your credentials do not matter!

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

Appeared for the exam and instantly knew I would not be making it this time!

I was cycling from one of my coaching institutes back to my PG.

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