We Indians are strange. For 1000 seats, 11 lakh candidates appear for UPSC exams.
For 16k seats, 22 lakh candidates appear for IIT-JEE exams.
For 35k seats, 1.2 crores candidates appear for Railways NTPC exams.
Statistics suggests, more than 99% of all these candidates will fail to get a seat.
Honestly. Why the need for dependence of these seats?
If you want to take such big risks where probability of success is 1%, logically, you should get into business. Odds of success and happiness in business are far better.
It’s an irony. People don’t want to start ‘risky’ business but want to try their hands on these ‘high failure rate’ examinations.
While business brings in money, these positions brings in social status. That’s where India got wrong.
We need to make risk taking small business owners feel proud about themselves. While, most of these people are looked down upon, they’re the back bone of Indian economy.

It’s a job security people look for they do not want risk family by doing business.
But I agree with skills can be in 1% of what you want to achieve.
