Jaipur: A quiet boy, mostly engrossed in studies, Tanay, from a village near Pilani in Jhunjhunu district, secured All India Rank 13 in NEET-UG. He also topped the OBC-NCL category, as per the NTA's statement.
The trick that worked for Tanay was regular revision along with his coaching preparations instead of keeping it for the last moment. "Whatever I learnt, I would revise it within three-four days of studying to test my knowledge. If I lacked somewhere, I would correct it immediately when the concept was still fresh in my mind so that the foundational knowledge was strong," said Tanay. He said that he kept building on the foundational knowledge and moved to more complex questions.
Inspired by his elder sister, who is already pursuing MBBS from Churu Medical College, Tanay said that the preparation journey was slightly easy for him as he was guided at home too. "With tips from my sister, regular practice of test papers, and family's motivation, my preparation journey was mostly smooth. I used to play volleyball at times with friends in Sikar, which helped me refresh my mind," he said.
Tanay's mother Sunita moved with him from Pilani to Sikar two years ago so that he could prepare for NEET-UG. "During the first year, only Tanay and I were in Sikar; later, his father and brother also shifted to Sikar for better studies. Though Tanay was educated in Pilani we moved to Sikar for better opportunities, and the proof is here," said Sunita.
Speaking about Tanay, she said that he would wake up early to study, taking breaks only for meals and speaking to friends or teachers to clear his doubts.
