Toppers’ Triumphs
“I hadn’t joined any coaching classes and relied entirely on self-study, dedicating 4-5 hours daily. Two months prior to the exams, I increased this time to 7-8 hours per day. While I had always aimed to score a 100%, I was surprised and delighted when I saw my SSC board result – I had actually scored a perfect 100%! Being one of the state toppers is an incredible feeling. My family, teachers and friends are very proud. I must say that balancing my hobby of Bharatanatyam with academics is what kept my mind fresh and helped me achieve my goal.

During school days, I studied consistently for 4 hours daily. Before the exams, I dedicated all available time to studies. I aimed for a percentage above 95%. Achieving 100% is a tremendous accomplishment. My family, friends and relatives have congratulated me, expressing their pride. I am ecstatic and grateful that my year-long efforts have paid off. My score includes 97% in academics and 3% from my dance exams at Gandharva Institute for Kathak. This success is a result of the unwavering support of my school, teachers and parents. Their guidance and help were crucial. I am deeply grateful for their contributions to my achievement.”

“Every day throughout the year I used to meticulously plan my schedule a night in advance. My focus was on completing specific topics daily. As evidenced by my family’s happy faces and my incredible achievement of 98.80%, without relying on any sports or cultural quotas, I can say that my hard work paid off. I am immensely proud of my high scores across all subjects. The joy and relief I feel are indescribable. This accomplishment is a testament to my dedication and the unwavering support of my family and teachers. I am motivated to continue striving for even greater heights.”

“Balancing a packed schedule throughout the year, I always ensured that I got time for self-study. My focus was understanding concepts rather than rote learning. I got 97.60% in the 10th boards. While I had aimed for a still higher score and was hence slightly disappointed, my family’s joy and the encouragement from friends, teachers and neighbours lifted my spirits. Their support made the achievement more special. I am incredibly grateful for everyone who stood by me during this journey. I am determined to learn from my mistakes and improve my study methods to excel in my future exams. This accomplishment is a proud moment for me and my loved ones.”
