CBSE Class 12 Result 2024: Meet remarkable students redefining academic success

The recent CBSE results have captivated everyone with outstanding performances by the students. Notably, the girls of Apeejay School, Kharghar, have achieved remarkable success, each scoring 95% and above. 

This achievement is truly commendable and calls for celebration. In a recent interview, the students shared their study routines and the pivotal roles they played during their exam preparation journey.

Delving deeper into their experiences reveals the dedication and strategies that contributed to their exceptional results. Their achievements are not just a testament to their academic prowess but also to their perseverance and commitment to excellence.

Richa Handa, the topper of the school from the Science stream, has made her school proud by securing an impressive 96.4%. Her outstanding performance not only reflects her dedication and hard work but also brings honour and recognition to her school. 

Another impeccable achiever and a topper from the Humanities stream — Anushka R Nikalji — who said: Don’t procrastinate studies till the last moment. Keep revising every then and now.

‘I am incredibly proud to have achieved the top position in my stream after a year of dedicated hard work. Seeing my mother happy made the accomplishment even more fulfilling. Economics was particularly challenging for me, so I invested extra time and effort into mastering it’ says Anushka.

Consistency throughout the year played a crucial role in Anushka’s success redirecting her great board exam results!

“Psychology is my favourite subject, and I even achieved a perfect score of 100 in it. The school teachers were instrumental in providing a friendly and enriching learning environment, which greatly contributed to my exponential growth,” Anushka shared.

To manage her stress levels, she enjoyed cycling or expressing herself through poetry and journaling. Her career aspiration is to work in the field of Psychology, building upon her passion for the subject.

“I believe in maintaining a regular study routine with frequent breaks. When taking breaks, I avoid using my phone to prevent distractions and dopamine rushes that can hinder focus. Instead, activities like going for a walk help refresh my mood and prepare me to return to studies effectively,” Anushka said.

Abhinav Nair, also a student of the Science stream who has scored 95.2% said: Revision and regular practice is more than enough

“My primary study hours were in the evening, and I emphasised thorough revision to reinforce my understanding of the material. I attribute my success to the invaluable guidance of my teachers and the unwavering support of my parents, who played a pivotal in my achievement. I focused on gaining a deep understanding of the concepts rather than relying on special study methods, finding the content from school books sufficient for my preparation,” Abhinav said and added that his favourite subject is Physics and despite the increased difficulty of the exam this time, he has exceptionally scored 95 in the subject. He is now all set to pursue a career in Electrical Engineering.

Spriha Pandey, who scored 94.2 % and topper of the Commerce stream from the school said: Practice your academics daily as school studies are most important

‘The outcome was surprisingly beyond my expectations, reaching over 90%. It was both a shock and an exhilarating moment for me. I owe immense gratitude to my Business Studies and Accounts teachers for imparting invaluable insights that contributed significantly to this achievement,” Spriha said, who dedicated two hours each day to Accounts and Cconomics, along with almost two hours to Business Studies.

Whenever stress crept in, she found solace in conversations with her parents, who consistently supported and calmed her. Additionally, comedy shows played a vital role in easing her stress levels during her CBSE Board exams.

‘The school faculty was instrumental in my success, guiding me not only on subject matter but also on exam strategies and problem-solving approaches. For students taking the exam next year, I suggest balancing studies with making friends and enjoying school life, as this phase will never return. However, maintaining focus and dedication in studies is equally essential,” she advised who is set to pursue a Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com) degree followed by a Company Secretaryship (CS).
