Which is the toughest? IITJEE or UPSC?
I have experienced the toughness of both and got ranks in both.
IITJEE: IQ> Hard work> EQ
UPSC: Hard work> EQ> IQ
Comparing every aspect of these exams: strategy, mindset, challenges.

Syllabus:
IITJEE: Physics, Chemistry and Maths

Transparency:
IITJEE: Transparent.
UPSC: Nearly opaque.
In the IITJEE, the candidate learns about his performance on the next exam day. IITs share everything openly.
Even the UPSC topper cannot predict what will happen at any given stage.
