“I had set a time table for myself, which I followed rigorously. I always had the support and cooperation of my teachers and my parents. We were provided various modules to prepare for the examinations. After my classes, I used to dedicate four to five hours daily for my studies. On an average, academics took up around 18 hours daily. My efforts. and the wishes of my teachers and parents, have resulted in this fantastic result. Although I expected good marks, I didn’t expect to top the State.”
