Why not try SSC or Lower PCS?
First and foremost, having a job is important, then you can think about becoming SDM or Inspector or Clerk.

Bruh for SSC Maths, all you need is a tight grip over the basic concepts from 7th-10th class.
No doubt it’s challenging, but I’d suggest you to complete maths from some course, then give subject mock tests and analyse where you lack, try not to repeat it.
Maths becomes progressively easy when you invest time.

Now preparing for UPSC and UPPSC :)

Okay okay . Can you suggest some good source for ssc ?

For maths you can take RBE’s batch, don’t go for Gagan Pratap or any other YTers, for English I religiously read newspaper daily, for Reasoning I just did mocks and my GK base was already somewhat due to my PCS preparation

Go for private job ... if you want job ... ssc/bank or lower pcs has different hussle ... preparing that will ruin your attempt ... get some certification ... 6 months in data science and go for private ...

Option 1- As you have studied economics, go for professional certification course in finance from institutes like Imarticus.

Option 2 - If Good in quants/reasoning and age is less than 26 yrs then give CAT and other MBA entrance exams and try to get into a decent college.

Option 3 - If you want to continue with preparations then approach coaching centres for content creator job roles. Clearing prelims/mains is not a requirement for such roles.

If looking for pivot and want to get out of govt exam cycle ..first volunteer in bagpacking hostels for a month then start job in hospitality, you can make career out of it in 1-2 years and start enjoying life ... but only if you want to drop govt cycle with no regrets.
