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).

I prepared for the next 3 years (2016 to 2019)
Relatively in a better position after my exam failures, but a void still exists!

“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).”
I write answers on Quora that help UPSC and other government exam aspirants.
And, after all, it was a matter of great pride and respect.

The batch sizes were huge!
This exam has an element of probability that no one can predict.

I had heard rumours going around that the results had been declared.
In case you are wondering, how did my story end?
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.

2016 I graduated from college. The same year I began preparing for the UPSC.
I vividly remember that evening.
I was constantly staring into the ground

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.
It lasted approximately 10 months.

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

All achievers in their own way.
Your credentials do not matter!
And, I had not made it.

Keep your ego aside.

Cut to 2-3 months post prelims. Results were declared.
I parked my cycle near one of the parks en route to my PG.
