Paramita Malakar, WBCS Officer, UPSC CSE, AIR 812, Offline Classroom Student of Foundation Batch
Paramita Malakar’s journey to success is one of grit, determination, and the invaluable support of the right guidance. This inspiring woman from West Bengal never gave up on her dream of cracking the UPSC Civil Services Exam. Her story is all about hard work, perseverance, and the valuable guidance she received from Educrat IAS Academy. Â
Paramita’s path wasn’t linear. After graduating in Physics, she worked at TCS for seven years before joining the State Bank of India. In 2020, she secured her current role as Sub Divisional Information and Cultural Officer (SDICO) under the West Bengal government. But Paramita’s ambitions soared higher.Â
The UPSC CSE first captured Paramita’s attention in 2018. She began preparing while juggling her job at TCS. Facing setbacks in her initial attempts only strengthened her resolve.Â
Paramita approached Educrat IAS Academy after her impressive showing in the 2022 mains exam. The academy was immediately struck by her dedication – she hadn’t taken a single mock test before! Despite the limited time, Educrat helped Paramita hone her skills. Though she missed the final cut-off by a mere 4 marks, her spirit remained unbroken.Â
The year 2022 proved to be a turning point. Paramita not only secured the SDICO position but also aced the first two stages of the UPSC CSE. This success continued in 2023, where she again cleared the preliminary and mains exams, and delivered an impressive performance in the interview stage with Educrat’s support.Â
Paramita’s determination is truly remarkable. Dejected but not defeated, she continued taking Educrat’s prelims test series. This boosted her confidence to attempt the exam again.Â
Balancing her government job with UPSC preparation was no easy feat. Paramita’s true warrior spirit shone through. She defied all odds, taking a staggering 28 mock tests for the 2023 mains, often scheduling them for Sundays after fulfilling her work commitments. Her dedication even saw her write a full-length test at the academy despite being unwell.Â
The exceptional focus and perseverance Paramita displayed, coupled with the expert guidance of Educrat IAS, finally paid off. She cleared the UPSC CSE mains yet again, proving that hard work and the right support are a powerful combination. Â
Paramita Malakar’s story is an inspiration to all UPSC aspirants. It highlights the importance of self-belief, unwavering determination, and finding the right support system.
