“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.”

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

I said, “Yes! I believe so.”

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

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

This exam has an element of probability that no one can predict.

“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).”
