How UPSC changed my life? | Failure, Depression and Success

A lot of you keep asking me in the comments section why I didn't join the civil services despite clearing the exam. So here's my story. This isn't just about the service; it's about how I panicked, completely lost it, cried, and overcame the most depressing phase of my life.

UPSC Civil Services Exam is one of the most prestigious exams in the country. It has three parts, the Prelims exam, the Main exam and the Personality test, which you need to clear in order to become an IAS or IPS officer. All other Group A services of the Government of India recruit people through the UPSC Civil services exam itself and because of this, there is a lot of competition in this exam. Hence, your UPSC preparation should be strategic, informed and well planned.

Your UPSC preparation should not be based on blind adherence to any program. Rather you should give a thought about how your are preparing. The best way to go forward is to study the blogs and tips given by previous year toppers about how to go about UPSC CSE for all three stages of UPSC Prelims, UPSC Mains and the Personality test also known as the UPSC Interview, and then make your UPSC preparation strategy accordingly.

Doing static subjects like polity, economy, environment, geography and history for your UPSC preparation is a solid bet to increase your chances of clearing this exam. But this must all be supplemented by current affairs for best effect.

I am a person who knows you since Studento 2.0 ❤

I remember, that I used to practice in court and in my leisure hours, I used to watch your videos to strategically plan my preparation. I am of the thought that UPSC can never be taught to anyone. It can only be guided. And if there are mentors like you, who shove the truth to your face but at the very same time give a ray of hope through hardwork, consistency and determination, i can definitely say that aspirants can be relieved. You and UPSC PREP team won our hearts again when you showed the truth as to which Upsc topper has taken which course on your platform like clear water. That was a tremendous step by your platform, adding more to your credibility. I don’t know whether i am going to fulfil my dream, but the outlook which you gave to this exam will certainly be the part and parcel of my life ever-long. Thank you so much Sir and thank you so much to complete UPSC prep team for your efforts.🙏🏻❤️

I am lost my confidence in 2022 and still fighting for it to get it back . I went into the Depression and still fighting with anxiety .

[adrijachoudhury]

I have met a few UPSC aspirants who failed and I have seen them breaking down and eventually turning into arrogant and egoistic human beings to mask their pain. That made me quite demotivated to appear for this exam.But you are really an inspiration. You fit perfect to the quote that, a true teacher is like a candle which consumes itself to light the way for others.
Thank You.

[Justhuman]

You are a winner ❤❤ After all you have gone through you are still continuing .

[AkhtarjiEdu]

Openly speaking.
You had a very hard time even though you were keep going and today you are assisting many aspirants.
May God bless you and gives you strength.
More power to you sir

Seeing such people of grit makes me humble.

मैंने यह अनुभव किया है कि यदि आपको रूटीन में सफलता मिल जाती है तो सफलता की खुशी नहीं होती अपितु दूसरे खुश लोगों को देखकर दुख होता है और व्यक्ति उदासी में डूब जाता है । व्यक्ति समझ नहीं सकता कि लोगबाग इतने खुश क्यों है जबकि उसे कोई खुशी अनुभव नहीं हो रही ।

Abhijeet sir stands tall after rising from ashes! I remember how one shorts video of you just 7-8 days before prelims’24 changed my perspective about end tak jhagarna for your cse dream. And I did fight till 4:30 pm that day.

Best thing is to say whatever is right
Expression is best than suppression
Suppression causes a lot of mental turmoil.
Let s face it whatever we are going through and be proud of it
And thank you sir for such podcast
It gives hope
