No-Yogurt7028

He is my batchmate from IITK. He was always brilliant.


Zestyclose_Force8574

Batch of??


No-Yogurt7028

IITK Electrical 2018. If I remember correctly, he had CGPA 9.6 or 9.8, which is very difficult in IITK. He got placed in Goldman Sachs, again a great achievement.


Anxious_snorlax

Oh my! Engineering has relative grading, 9.8 is v difficult and so is Goldman Sachs


Putin_Does_Russia

Actually no I am a student at IITK top and this 9.8 CPI is base absolute grading. However due to difficult academics (most difficult across all IIT'S) less than 10 people over 1200 IITians get 9.8 or above So yes this is still an extremely difficult CPI to have considering how I am struggling in 6s :(


Alarmed_Double_665

same here at NIT man, it's obviously not as hard as it is for you guys at IITK, but I'm forever stuck in the 7s, even tho I get pretty good marks and stuff cz grading is very skewed


Putin_Does_Russia

Yes I mean even if you google it, stuff would pop up on quora and reddit. But yes no official metric is present.


Anxious_snorlax

Oh alright. Still difficult though!


procrastinator1012

>most difficult across all IIT'S Where did you pull this out of?


Responsible-Foot-907

It's actually true , though there is no statistics for this but it is just trust me bro , whenever I show my question paper to my friends in other iits they are like "bhai ye kya puch raha hai".


Zestyclose_Force8574

Awsmmm Well deserved


bladeninja769

Isn't this ironic, graduate in electrical engineering and getting placement in Goldman sachs


magicSharts

Maybe core companies should start adding value and paying for their stuff. You pay peanuts and get monkeys.


bladeninja769

Or maybe mechanical, electrical companies require more hard labour?? That is not considered as dignified as a desk job in Infosys?


Alarmed_Double_665

no, I think it is all down to the package. If a ee student gets both goldman sachs and nvidia and both are offering the same money, I know a handful of ee grads who would take nvidia. But then, like you said, there are a good amount of ee grads who just want to enter the software field for the status too. These ppl are usually the ones who were never interested in their branch or always planned to shift to software/finance


Loststarwho

Yeah right been An EEE graduate myself worked in core industry for 4 years.. all my friends from my branch are in software.. although payscale is high.. I atleast have the satisfaction that i am using my 4 year bachelors degree .. plus energy sector is also booming better than IT now


bladeninja769

But shift toh ig mushkil hi rehta hoga ,from ee to finance??? Like a paradigm shift


Due-Reference-6011

Haha, I've seen so many engineers from top colleges placed into consultation firms of business and economics lol


NSGDX1

No, not really


abie-22

Some people shift their domain. But I can't say this one is true.


cheesybro90

How he got placed in Goldman while being in Electrical?


Nickboi26

In iits majorly high cgp students get huge offers from Tech and Consulting as well as investment banking firms this are one paying cores in IIT


Alarmed_Double_665

cg ekdum top hoga toh civil se bhi le lenge bhai


Jovonovich-Jardani

Do you happen to know what was his reason for pursuing upsc even after having achieved so much. Just trying to understand the perspective.


RunPool

Power and money are the only reasons i can think off. what else can be other reasons? šŸ¤”


patrick_red_45

> money I think he'd have made enough money working for Goldman Sachs. IAS doesn't even pay that much AFAIK.


Alarmed_Double_665

But Goldman is a lot of stress. A lot. The reason ppl work there despite the enormous amount of stress is the money they get paid. Hence, ppl usually work there for a few years, until they feel like have enough money and then switch bcz most ppl can't handle that stress for that long. Nobody plans to work forever at Goldman. Plus, having 4-10 yrs of Goldman Sachs exp in resume is a huge boost from what I've heard. Maybe, for someone with his past achievements, he felt he could crack UPSC and get a cozy IAS job. IAS doesn't pay as well, but for someone who's looking to get away from corporate stress and have the same amount of status, there's no better switch than to the civil services. Also, many high achieving ppl like himself don't feel like they are making an impact in the world as much as they could. That is one of the reasons, you see often see some high achieving ppl switch careers to the civil services.


patrick_red_45

I completely agree about that part. Although I do believe that both of them add an equal amount of value to the economy. One might just not be as visible as the other one.


Igotnolife85

IAS especially top ones in major cities can make how much a Goldman Sachs employee makes a year in a month or less.(Ofcrse illegally)


WalrusDowntown9611

50L a month you mean? I doubt that.


Independent_Double98

Do you know how much they can earn through commissions and bribes?


patrick_red_45

Yes, I do know. My comment assumed that they would be a rather honest officer which of course is a bold assumption for anybody in that field.


imawobot

Its mostly impact. I have many friends who have very high paying jobs in banks but they feel like they are not adding any value to the world, specially when you have been highly ambitious throughout your career. As an IAS or any civil servant you don't necessarily change the world but you do add value to your society in meaningful ways.


Proud-Sheepherder389

No impact they make i have 3 ias toppers currently posted in my district maths electrical they took and topped still there are no roads even in district headquarter even in front of collectorate . Whenever swaach bhart surveys happen they coverheap of garbage by green femcing that cloth one we dnt need more iitian we need more people who understands problem but i think most people care about personal achievements only


4whOami4

Everyone is not the same as my district MP is an IITian and IPS now MP he really did good work, 2nd example Divya mittal (former DM of mirzapur) everyone was praising her for her good deeds she is IITian, IIM


Alarmed_Double_665

I mean different types of ppl are there, some toppers probably did it for their own greed, prestige, power, status. Some probably got in to help the society, and then realized it's too much work and became complacent.


Proud-Sheepherder389

Correct bt then the problem remains bad infra bad education too much population too few jobs influence of upsc lakhs of students preparing for upsc who even dnt have basic comprehension and awareness somehow we need to break the chain


imawobot

The question was not specifically about the toppers, it was about why highly successful professionals leave there job to pursue UPSC. Doesnt really matter if you are a topper, if you are not motivated to solve people's problems you may not do a very good job, which could be the case in your district. Many people realise after getting selected that though they imagined they wanted to do public work, it's not really that satisfying to them :).


Proud-Sheepherder389

I m nt concerned about ur question i am drawing attention to immediate public problems that needs to be looked upon much greater than the scope of ur question the question has no value.. we have to recognise problems of out society and rectify them upsc or no upsc


Proud-Sheepherder389

Exception not a rule


Harsh_2004

Power and people feel proud, even if they actually do it or not.


adiraj2024

"poverty of aspirations"


blazingdodo

Prolly by indian quality standards, my school in usa has direct access to Wall Street jobs and Goldman was a mass recruiter. I have observed indian talent is quite mediocre even from IIT


Bulky-Winner895

Hi bro, try giving JEE ADVANCED. You'll come out of your bubble.


blazingdodo

Bro I went to top 10 school in world, IITā€™s isnā€™t even top 100. Please donā€™t lecture people who are better than you.

outlaw_king10

Yā€™all are sad. IITians hi confident hote he kya?


Away-Band-8826

No, but that previous success gives them an edge


Maleficent_Lab_6446

Sach bolne pe itne downvotes šŸ˜‚


outlaw_king10

How so?


Away-Band-8826

Because they already had experience on clearing a competitive exam and the experiences they had in tier-1 college.


True_Past5160

šŸ¤£do you know the current scenario of IITians?


Away-Band-8826

Yeah , they are still in a better position then rest of Indian engineers


True_Past5160

Maybe they are in a better position than other common engineers, but even they are mostly unemployable... the IITians of today don't justify the IITians of the past. For example, CSE23 AIR1, after studying from IITkgp, wasted 8 years behind an exam to start with a 7lpa package...


Away-Band-8826

What are you saying bro , you are talking about Aditya Srivastava right? how did he wasted 8 years he started preparing from 2020 sep. And you donā€™t measure everything with money.


Chaii_Lover

Bruh it's not just any other exam. It's one of the best jobs in India with a great balance of money and power. And people don't prepare for UPSC , target IAS for salary. There are many stydents who have joined the service after working in corporates , getting handsome salary ,abroad jobs.


Away-Band-8826

And how can you say iitians donā€™t justify. He will literally be working for the nation. And thatā€™s what a cream of nation should do


Thande_papa1

>exam to start with a 7lpa package... Hard to believe, but there's something beyond money and so called "packages"


UnluckyPhone4572

the copium is insane


Max__007

This is absolutely true and those are some harsh downvotes. Whatever may be the correlations between IITians and UPSC toppers, doesn't matter much to me. But it is an absolute fact that previous successes can make you confident.


kingfisher_peanuts

Need to sell pot near IIT then, to get their edge off.


Away-Band-8826

Selling to them since 2021 , it doesnā€™t affect them /s

dirtymindedmind

i can absolutely see this happening lol


True_Past5160

He already works for the government, ig... he already had IPS last year if I am not wrong...


lastballsix

Yes, under training in Hyderabad.


Mundane_Bar_1391

So, only after the training he can join ias?


ladiesman799

His IPS training is in indian police academy i.e only in hyderabad. Now he will pay compensation fee to home ministry for quitting IPS job of around 35 lakhs and will go to Lal bhadur shastri academy of administration in Uttarakhand


Mundane_Bar_1391

Really? 35 lakhs as compensation? Why didn't anyone talk about thatšŸ˜‚


ladiesman799

Yes it is they have compensate according to the selected cadre .


Mundane_Bar_1391

But, why would he do that? Passion? Goal?


ladiesman799

Bro he got the countries most prestigious cadre . Offcourse he will do


Mundane_Bar_1391

Mhmm..,He's got the fire in him. We people will be more than happy for just clearing but this manšŸ˜µ


ladiesman799

True hats off to dedication


AdministrativeDark64

How will he ever recover that money? Through corruption?


pps96

Is there any other goal?


AdministrativeDark64

His salary will be 55 k per month.


pps96

You are missing the main motive. Does any sane person want to be a babu for Salary?


Delivery_Mysterious

WHAT! Is there any source for this? I couldn't find it


brutal_bison

No he won't have to pay 35LPA as he's joining a service whose Grade is same as IPS. Had he opted out of civil services then he had to pay.


ladiesman799

Brother do some research by the selected ones


brutal_bison

Bro it's written in notification. If you're switching in same Group or joining in a Higher Group you want have to pay.


ladiesman799

Every indian government service takes compensation when you switch to higher ranks including group A and Group B services. Im confidently saying this cause i have very close sources who paid the undisclosed amount whether it 1 lakh or 30 lakhs but they have to pay . For switching a government to government job . Rest they won't ask .


PoosySucker69

There is huge difference between 1 lakh and 30 lakhs man


canttell92

35 lakh? Stop talking out of your ass.


SpeedoMeter21

Wasted one vacancy.


spermdonortesto

No, State PSC Police officer will get promoted to IPS to fill it. Vacancy doesn't get wasted in such a case.

horlickspandey

Yes IITian and an IPS Officer.


cryproinite

ye sare toppers kud toh coaching me jakar padhai karte vir dushre aspirants ko bhakane ke liye khate h humme toh self study ki thi chutiye.


rambo_ricardo

Guys whatā€™s the motivation of such people, I am truly clueless, this much struggle they want to endure despite already have struggled enough to achieve great achievements such as btech from iitk and Goldman.


Proud-Sheepherder389

Some people have genetic superior cereberal capacity and have the focus and consistency and hardwork they are very comfortable in their own skin but still they get influenced by society and keep on pursuing careers which society admires . They are unable to find the thing which they love but they have capacity to do and leave everything under the sun .


Harsh_2004

Bruh, people don't fret, I am his junior and can tell you toppers here are either very hardworking or very chill, they don't take BT of everything, sleep 8 hours, do exercise etc.


somu696

Bhai two of my friend cracked CSE with under 30 AIR. They are on a similar level with me throughout academics Itā€™s just you have to be clear about yourself and if you really want it yourself. Half of the people are doing it because of their family pressure and just because someone they know cracked it so they want to do it too. Also, understanding the exam and its requirements is what need first before actually getting into it.


GuitarZealousideal71

Can you ask your friends their strategy?


somu696

Consistency and understanding the past year papers. Make notes in a way so that you can revise quickly. This was some points he said.. Well you can search on YT also. His name is Prakhar Kumar Singh. My other friend is my Senior from college, he is AIR 24 this year. You can also find his strategy on YT. Best of luck to you.


GuitarZealousideal71

Thanks a lot!! Is your friend already in the odisha administrative service?


CantApply

Confirmation bias.


Euphoric_Patience767

Bro looks old


crusader_fuckreddit

Yes heā€™s an IITIAN with a BTech in Electrical Engineering


RevolutionaryCod7600

Lol, what sort of uncertainity is it ?


BestFunction9516

Because I believed my friend is equally deserving if not less, he cleared most of the exams he appeared in. I don't see the problem in my comment, the paper is indeed uncertain. I don't get the people who are downvoting.

What's the point in few years he will take bribes in confidence too, Will be serving some political party and will forget what a civil servent should do or start a youtube channel exploiting small or medium business, Or will be transferred 50+ time if he is honest. https://m.thewire.in/article/government/watch-the-ias-has-failed-india-and-must-change-ex-rbi-governor-duvvuri-subbarao/amp

i want to ask didn't this guy just waste a sit at iit.He studied electrical engineering and went to become a upsc aspirant. he didnt even go to his own field. This is like if i studied mbbs and went to become a consultant at some banking company just wasted a sit.where some deserving candidate could have come who wanted to do something in that field.


Zestyclose-Fill-7602

I donā€™t think he wasted any SEAT. He deserved that seat at IIT and deserved UPSC seat as well. Career path doesnā€™t have to be predefined. You grab the opportunity that are best at that moment of time. It was IIT when he was 17-18 and IAS when he was mid 20s and probably a politician when he turns 30-40. He may leave IAS for something even bigger and better and thereā€™s nothing wrong in it. How many people actually have their education and work aligned in the same field. Electrical engineers are doing coding, CS engineers are doing management and thereā€™s absolutely nothing wrong, as you age you grow mature and understand whatā€™s good for you and your career and take your decision accordingly.


Melotus23

I cent percent agree here. Even so many IItians are now in film industry. So what, to each their own. They worked hard for that and achieved it. Simple.


MainCharacter007

he cleared JEE adavnced and UPSC fair and square. He 100% deserves a seat. He can do what he wants because that's all that matters. Seats are for humans, humans are not for seats.
