CROWNING GLORY
M Sai Teja, who bagged the perfect 100 score in JEE MAINS (session I), said, “I gave my best in the JEE MAIN exam and secured a 100 percentile. In the next main (section ii), and advance I want to score the same. I studied for 9 to 13 hours every day, which helped me score good marks. To relax, I used to play table tennis on a regular basis, which helped me cope with stress. I intend to study CSE at IIT-Bombay and eventually start my own company.”
Muthavarapu Anoop, another student who scored a perfect 300 marks, said, “I could achieve the result due to constant support and guidance from his lecturers and parents. Currently, my focus is on upcoming advanced exams. I want to study the Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) programme at IIT Bombay.
Rohan Sai Pabba said, “I had no expectations about marks, just went and gave my best. I prepared for 10–12 hours without watching TV and also limited my usage of other electronic gadgets. My father, who is a software professional, played a crucial role in guiding me. I want to join the CSE programme at the IIT-Bombay.”
Hundekar Vidith said, “Every day, I solved different practice papers and wrote 10-15 mock tests, which helped me do well on my entrance exam. It is my dream to join IIT-Bombay. Unlike others who move abroad for higher studies and jobs, I want to stay back in the country and do something here.”
Sriyashas Mohan Kalluri, who is also an accomplished archer and a Khelo India athlete, said, “Academics do not mean you have to sacrifice your other interests. I have done my best in academics and also in archery.”
Tavva Dinesh Reddy said, “I studied for 8–9 hours. Apart from doing the 45-minute study method, I also solved more complex problems for the JEE preparations. I plan to pursue computer science at either IIT Bombay or IIIT Hyderabad.
