‘Not much active on social media’

I took around 50 mock tests for session 2. I secured 99.92 percentile in session one and 99.96 percentile in session 2. I devoted around 8 hours to self-study daily. My strategy was to solve less difficult questions first then the hard ones. Accuracy and speed are my success mantras. Now, I am focusing on JEE Advance. I want to become a data scientist. My father is a government servant and mother a homemaker. I play badminton and chess to burn stress. I am not much active on social media.

‘Used WhatsApp to exchange study notes’

I got 99.9648 percentile in session 2 which is a bit lower than the earlier one – 99.9650 . Discussion with friends is my success mantra. I dedicated five hours daily for self-study. Talking with parents and friends were my stress busters. I am not on social media. I only use WhatsApp to exchange study materials. My future plan is to make a career in computer or data science. Now, I am concentrating on JEE Advance preparation.

‘Stopped using social media in class 11’

I used to spend around eight hours on self study daily and consistency was my success mantra. I stopped using social media when I was in Class 11. My percentile in session 2 was less than session one as I had to prepare for my Board Exams and Session 2 exam simultaneously. Now, I am preparing for JEE Advance. I have interest in Electronics or Engineering Physics and I want to make a career in either. My mother is a wellness coach and father is senior advisor in Atal Bihari Vajpayee Institute of Good Governance and Policy Analysis. I talk to my parents, friends and teachers whenever I feel stressed.
