Achieving top marks in the CBSE Class 10 results is no small feat. It’s considered a pivotal moment in a student’s academic journey, marking the culmination of years of hard work and dedication.  Let’s meet the shining stars:

Manvik Kashyap, who delivered an outstanding performance and secured the first position with an exceptional score of 98.8%. His remarkable achievement reflects not only his academic brilliance but also his unwavering dedication, disciplined approach, and consistent hard work throughout the year, setting a truly inspiring benchmark for his peers. –

Nitya Mangesh Langhe and Srijana Raje and Aarav Sharma from Apeejay School, Nerul who achieved outstanding results and showcased exceptional performances in the board exams.

Nitya Mangesh Langhe who scored an impressive 98.2% in the board examinations described the result as both surprising and deeply rewarding, reflecting on the dedication and effort invested throughout the academic year. Sharing the moment of the result declaration, the student said, “When I got my results, I was honestly surprised. At first, I didn’t even believe the score and checked it multiple times just to be sure.” The sense of disbelief soon turned into joy as the result finally sank in. “Once it finally sank in, I felt extremely happy, as all the hard work over the year seemed worth it. Seeing my parents’ reaction made the moment even more special,” the student added.

The student emphasised that teachers played a crucial role in this achievement by providing consistent support and motivation during the preparation period. “My teachers played a very important role in my preparation. They were always there to guide and motivate me, especially during times when I felt stressed or unsure,” the student shared. Teachers not only cleared doubts regularly but also provided revision material and helped identify areas requiring improvement. According to the student, their encouragement and constant support throughout the year helped maintain focus and confidence during the preparation process.

Talking about the preparation strategy, the student explained that consistency and planning formed the foundation of the study routine. Instead of following a rigid timetable, the student preferred setting flexible and achievable daily goals. “My preparation strategy mainly focused on planning and consistency,” the student explained. Regular revision was also an essential part of the process. Topics were revised every one or two weeks to ensure better retention and understanding. In the final month before the examinations, the focus shifted to solving sample papers. “In the last month, I focused on solving as many sample papers as possible, which helped me improve my answer writing, manage time better, and get familiar with the exam pattern,” the student noted.

Managing stress effectively was another important aspect of the preparation journey. Whenever studies became overwhelming, the student took short breaks, went for walks, or stepped away from books for a few minutes to refresh the mind. Completing assignments well before deadlines helped avoid unnecessary last-minute pressure. The student also highlighted the importance of proper sleep and short breaks between study sessions to maintain concentration and prevent burnout.

Looking ahead, the student aspires to clear the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) and pursue a deeper interest in mathematics and physics. “I hope to continue learning and eventually build a career in a field that allows me to apply these subjects in solving real-world problems,” the student said, expressing strong determination to achieve future academic and professional goals.

Srijana achieved an impressive 97.6%, delivering an outstanding academic performance.  Reflecting her strong command over both languages and core subjects, she scored 100 in English, 99 in Hindi, and 98 in Science.

“I am satisfied,” said Srijana as she shared her feelings about the result. She further credited her teachers for playing an important role in helping her improve academically. “Teachers were helpful and gave me great tips to improve, and that was a determining factor,” she shared.

Talking about her preparation routine, Srijana emphasised the importance of maintaining a healthy balance between studies and personal well-being. “I exercised and slept a lot for my brain. Sleeping for 8 to 9 hours helped my performance and kept my mind clear,” she explained. Interestingly, she did not attend any tuition classes and relied on self-study. “I studied in a traditional way and followed a daily routine. The hours of study depended on the task,” she added.

She believes in completing tasks within a set time limit to stay disciplined and productive. Looking ahead, Srijana plans to opt for the Science stream and pursue her interest in Physics.

Aarav Sharma delivered an equally commendable performance, securing an impressive 97.6%. His achievement stands as a testament to his dedication, perseverance, and consistent effort, reflecting a strong commitment to excellence and making him a true source of pride and inspiration for the school community.
