Mother of all services, i.e. IAS is a hard nut to crack and success belongs to those who are physically, emotionally, and psychologically competent enough to handle the stress and failures. It is a journey of determination, hard work, and perseverance. In the middle of insurmountable pressure, aspirants of civil services deal the cut-throat competition. Long study hours, handling expenses, living alone, health concerns, and peer pressure has a devastating effect on the minds of civil services aspirants. They feel physically, emotionally, and psychologically drained. The present study included 90 aspirants randomly selected from old Rajendra Nagar and Mukherji Nagar areas of Delhi, which is a hub for civil services aspirants. Results indicate that moderate amount of stress was prevalent in second or third attempt aspirants, as compared to high examination stress in first attempt of aspirants and maximum in last attempt of IAS aspirants. The case studies depict the areas of concern, hardships, and the sufferings of these aspirants in their journey of an aspirant to a civil servant.
