Had a turning point (love life) where i went against my family and I thought leaving full fledged studies and give tutions but my family supported me....thanks to them.....but I was prepared since then....ppl started doubting and pouring sympathies as if I can't do it...may b I still can't but I never needed their superficial sympathies....I cleared pre this time with a job n very less time to study....may b I won't clear mains or won't be able to make to final list.... But friends remember one thing, this is just an exam....100s of ppl become ias and similar number is and other services... Only few actually gain respect or r even contented with their lives...at the end of the day u shud have that feeling even when u fail..baaki duniya to bakwaas karegi aur wo aapke ias,ips ke baad bhi karegi...just b truthful to urself....

You had the balls to do what you did. Others did not. And remember, the grass is always greener on the other side. Go outside, workout in the morning, join a library for studies and limited amount of social life.. Find a gf.. Who is stopping you? We are all limited by our thoughts, not capacity.

bhai this is correct that civils is not everything and even 10-20% IAS leave their job for various reasons.
But please enlighten what else can be done? and how to start that when anyone has no job experience before with 4 year of gap after graduation.
Bhai there can be no generalised answers on wat can be done...but depending on ur background there r many things u can do...one option u r well aware of and I believe u r doing it and will continue doing it..continue ur preparation... If u r in a situation of financial emergency luk side by side for an alterative job...'chhoti badi kuch bhi chalegi as long as u r able to meet the days end...coaching,tuitions or some low profile govt. job....dun b shy and take it as a step...dun b emaraased ki I was preparing for civils and so how can I take it....be modest and yet aspire high...kaisi job hogi tat depends on wat ur academic background is and seriously give few days for tat....agar financial issues nahi hai to mast prepare karo....
Second attempt and once again failed to clear even pre. Got around 165 combined last year and was expecting 98 this time, and was just hoping to sale through somehow. Totally devastated and not sure if it is worthwhile to go in for another attempt.
Age 24, 1.5 yrs of corporate experience.
Cleared CDS 2, 2014 (OTA) and waiting for SSB, Allahabad (wont be eligible for another attempt) Cleared SSC tier 1 2015, really doubt if I can make it through tier 2 CAPF results pending (again hoping to just sail through - wont be eligible next year) MPPSC - Hard to keep this as a fallback option, bloody losers take ages to give final postings.
Failed IBPS and SBI and all Insurance AO papers once. Never prepared for even once minute for any of these and not sure if it is a good idea to leave UPSC for sometime and prepare for one of these seriously?
To be completely honest with myself, I know I did not give even my 50%, let alone 100%..but then again I really dont know if I can give 100% concentration, I know for a fact that I am not able to put in the required hours (god knows why!).
If someone is in a similar situation, please give me some suggestions as to what to do ? I am really scared to sit back at home for another year and prepare, but I also know that UPSC wont happen with a full time job. Need some time-pass job to calm down the family and take my time with UPSC.
