Despite the physical discomfort, he aced the paper. 'My parents said they'd be happy even if I just passed, but I surprised them. This shows that last-minute study isn't everything—consistent learning matters,' said Dhanush, who has been a topper since Class M Kulkarni, another student who scored full marks, credited her teachers and a focussed approach. 'I didn't study all the time. I believe in qualitative learning over quantity. I had aimed for 625 and was confident I could do it. Now, I want to prepare for NEET and pursue medicine,' she SN from Bengaluru emphasised the role of family and foundational knowledge. 'My parents never pressured me. I never took tuitions, but always revised what I learned at school on the same day. My foundation was strong, and that made all the difference,' she shared.A multi-talented student, Jahnavi has also cleared exams in Mahabharata, Ramayana, and Hindi Praveena, while learning classical music and the veena. 'I've been securing first rank for nearly nine years,' she Namitha, scoring 625 was a dream come true. 'I dedicated my entire day to studies and received strong support from my school. They even extended hours during the exam season to help us prepare better,' she said. Namitha now plans to pursue commerce and believes, 'Studying shouldn't feel like a burden. Don't mug up, understand what you read.'Thanya RN, another perfect scorer, swore by self-discipline and late-night study sessions. 'If I wasn't satisfied with my preparation, I'd study till 2 or 3 am. I didn't attend tuitions but made sure I understood everything before sleeping,' she said.
