“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).”

Keep your ego aside.
I vividly remember that evening.
This is the very reason you will hear IIT, IIM, AIIMS graduates failing to clear the UPSC.
Appeared for the exam and instantly knew I would not be making it this time!

And, I had not made it.
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, 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.”
Also, simultaneously prepared for other exams
I was determined to clear the exam and then go back home.

Worked for a marketing agency
If one says, they can help you crack the exam with X AIR, it is difficult to do so.
It was summertime in Delhi. I was allotted a far-off centre in Najafgarh.

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.
It lasted approximately 10 months.
I write answers on Quora that help UPSC and other government exam aspirants.
And crushed myself and ‘my expectations’ on it.
All the best!
