Cracking the UPSC Exam at an early age

Cracking the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) exam at an early age can bring a number of benefits to the candidate. Some of these benefits are:

1. Early career progression: By cracking the UPSC exam at an early age, a candidate can start their career in the civil services at a younger age. This can lead to faster career progression and the opportunity to take on more responsibility and leadership roles earlier in their career. If you become an IAS at a very young age, chances are there that you can go on and become the Cabinet Secretariat, which is the top bureaucrat of our country.
2. More time for career growth: By starting their career earlier, a candidate has more time to learn and grow within their chosen field. This can lead to a more fulfilling and successful career overall. 
3. Higher salary and perks: Civil servants in India are among the highest paid government employees and receive a number of perks and benefits. By starting their career earlier, a candidate can enjoy these benefits for a longer period of time.
4. Increased job security: Civil servants in India have a high level of job security, with many serving for decades in their chosen field. By starting their career earlier, a candidate can enjoy this security for a longer period of time.
5. Ability to make a difference: Civil servants have the opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of the people they serve. By starting their career earlier, a candidate can make a difference in the lives of others for a longer period of time.
6. Youth factor: Our bureaucracy is plagued with traditionalism, a reason why it is so lethargic. Recruitment of young people into the system may bring in the fresh energy and zeal that your people carry in them.
7. Sense of accomplishment: Cracking the UPSC exam is a challenging and competitive process and achieving success at an early age can bring a sense of accomplishment and pride to the candidate.
8. Opportunity to pursue higher education: Many civil servants go on to pursue higher education, such as a master’s degree or a PhD. By starting their career earlier, a candidate has more time to pursue further education and enhance their knowledge and skills.
9. Role model for others: By achieving success in the UPSC exam at an early age, a candidate can become a role model and inspire others to pursue their dreams and ambitions.
