CBSE Class XII Result 2026: Toppers reflect on their success stories 

Once again, the students of Apeejay School, Mahavir Marg, have demonstrated remarkable academic excellence by securing outstanding results in the CBSE Class XII Board Examinations. Their achievements reflect months of perseverance, consistency, and disciplined preparation. Behind every impressive score lies a story of dedication, support from teachers and families, and a clear vision for the future. Here’s a look at how these achievers prepared for success and what aspiring students can learn from their journeys.

Bhurvi Madan: Consistency Led to a Stunning Score

Commerce stream topper Bhurvi Madan scored an exceptional 98.4%, a result that exceeded even her own expectations.

Recalling the moment she checked her result, Bhurvi shared, “I felt really overwhelmed and happy when I saw my result. Honestly, I never expected to score 98.4 percent. I was expecting around 95 percent, but this result came as a very pleasant surprise for me. It was a very emotional and memorable moment because all the hard work finally paid off.”

Her preparation strategy was simple yet effective — consistency. Instead of burdening herself with complicated plans, she focused on regular revision and conceptual understanding.

“I did not follow any complicated strategy. I just tried to stay consistent because consistency is the key and small steps make a big difference. Sometimes we feel like a small topic can be done later, but gradually things start piling up. I revised regularly, focused on understanding concepts, and connected topics with real life,” she said.

Bhurvi credited her teachers and school for their unwavering support. “I am really grateful to my school and all my teachers for constantly supporting me and solving my doubts. I would especially like to thank my class teacher, Ms. Shruti, who always gave me extra time after school to practice and improve. Her support and dedication truly meant a lot to me.”

Looking ahead, Bhurvi plans to pursue B.Com (Hons.), preferably from Delhi University or Mumbai University, while also exploring Chartered Accountancy and career opportunities in finance.

Riddhi Khatter: Turning Passion into Purpose

Another Commerce achiever, Riddhi Khatter, secured an impressive 97.6%. Reflecting on her success, Riddhi said, “It was quite overwhelming seeing the result, as it finally felt like all the time and hard work had paid off. What made it even more special was seeing my family so happy and proud.”

Balancing academics with extracurricular activities, she maintained a disciplined schedule and focused more on understanding concepts than rote learning.

“My preparation strategy focused on maintaining consistency and managing my time efficiently alongside extracurricular commitments. I studied for around 4–6 hours a day, focusing mainly on concept clarification rather than memorisation. In the later months, I focused mainly on giving tests, which really helped me strengthen my preparation,” she explained.

Riddhi acknowledged the constant guidance of her teachers and family. “My school and teachers played an extremely supportive role throughout my preparation, always helping clear my doubts whenever needed.”

Interestingly, despite being from the Commerce stream, Riddhi has chosen a creative career path. She now plans to pursue Interior Design from ISDI at ATLAS SkillTech and dreams of building a successful future in the design industry.

Arnav Gupta: Hard Work and Discipline Pay Off

Science stream achiever Arnav Gupta secured a stellar 97.4%, making his family and school immensely proud.

“I felt extremely happy and proud when I saw my result. Scoring 97.4% was a very special moment for me as it reflected all the hard work, consistency, and support I received from my parents and elder sister,” he shared. 

Arnav credited his school for helping him identify weaknesses and improve continuously. “My teachers were very supportive. The school exams helped me analyse my performance and weak areas in various subjects, which helped me improve my score,” he said.

He scored highest in Chemistry and Music, balancing academics with creativity. “Chemistry is one of my favourite subjects because I enjoy understanding concepts and problem-solving, while music helps me stay relaxed and balanced during my studies,” he added. 

Arnav now aims to prepare seriously for NEET and pursue a career in medicine.

Kritika Gupta: Excellence Through Dedication

Science student Kritika Gupta scored an excellent 96.4%, showcasing determination, focus, and consistent effort. Her achievement reflects the importance of discipline, smart preparation, and the strong academic support system provided by the school and teachers.

Anahat Pall: Focused Learning for Remarkable Success

Commerce student Anahat Pall secured an impressive 96.2% and described the moment as unforgettable. “I was on cloud nine when I got to know that I scored 96.2% in my 12th board exams. I felt that my hardwork, resilience and determination has paid off,” she shared.

Rather than studying for long hours, Anahat preferred focused, concept-based preparation. “My preparation strategy was not much of long hour desk sittings, rather it was focusing on topics primarily and concentrating on concept-oriented study,” she explained.

She expressed heartfelt gratitude towards the Commerce and Economics departments and acknowledged her teachers for constant guidance. “Every single teacher was a helping hand. Also Apeejay School has helped me achieve this score,” she said.

Anahat now plans to pursue Global Accounting & Finance Certifications and establish herself in the financial sector.

The outstanding achievements of these students once again reaffirm Apeejay School, Mahavir Marg’s commitment to nurturing excellence, resilience, and future-ready learners.
