Crossed the Rubicon but just like Rana Pratap, could not conquer the capital Chittor :(

Final result of Civil Services Examination 2012 was announced today and based on the written examination and interview, i was expecting somewhere below 200 All India Rank but  got 545 AIR instead. This has been a story of my life, i have had always got middle rank/grades (in 12th, in IIT-JEE, in B. Tech and now in Civil Services Exam), fate has been kind to me but definitely no too kind.  I was heartbroken exactly about 364 days back, on 4th May 2012 and now i am in different mood. During my preparation of last couple of years, i have learned hell of new things, read hell number of books, written voluminous notes and mugged up even non-required things. The best lesson a civil service aspirant can learn from my adventure/misadventure is to remain focused. I dedicate whatever i have achieved today to my father who must have smiled today in heaven and i pay my regards and thanks to my close friends (I will not belittle them by naming them, but they will understand if they read this) who have helped me in my bad and not so bad times. 
Now i hope that God will help me out in fulfilling heavy responsibilities (that will come with this job)  towards my countrymen. Amen.
