10 Lakh Aspirants in the Exam ?



Less than 50,000. The question should also cover who is a true aspirant. Is a person taking coaching and attending classes daily is a true aspirant? No. Is someone who is preparing for 2–3–4 or even 5 years a true aspirant? No. Then who is a true aspirant?
 

One who takes UPSC because of peer pressure or parents pressure or because everyone is doing so or because it gives you reputation in society saying that you are preparing for UPSC, or because you are not doing anything i.e. you are jobless and have to say something to people, or even if you are studying because you want to do it genuinely but you are not able to put your heart and all your efforts into it, you are not a serious aspirant.
 
Serious is one who knows this is what he wants, is ready to put all that it takes and is consistent with his efforts.
And trust me, there are not many.
Luck works only in objective exams, that too at times. With exams which screens at so many levels, it's your hard work and dedication. However, if a person who has prepared really really well and still not able to appear in the exam itself because of some emergency say he met an accident, that is pure luck. So as long as you save yourself from such mishaps, luck won't contribute much in the exam.
