In a fun chat with the achiever, we learn about his study strategy and how his school helped him in this journey. Read edited excerpts:

Raghav, what is the secret behind this success?

Consistency and keeping up with the school and other study material together. One has to study daily with a systematic approach to achieve such a score. I studied upto 12 hours a day in the last phase of the preparation but, I had started preparing from class 11 itself.

Which was your favourite subject and which was a bit tough?

I loved Physics but I was struggling a bit in Biology. So, I revised it countless times until it went in my head and I began feeling confident.

Was the self-study time divided subject wise?

We had so many mock exams, and since the exams were obviously held subject wise on different days, I kept studying for the particular subject exam I had ahead.

And how did Apeejay School, Noida support you?

The school teachers cooperated and solved all my doubts. They were so understanding. My friends are all into the science stream and were preparing for competitive exams, so I had a good atmosphere of learning around me.

The next step in your career now is…

Becoming a doctor by finishing my MBBS. I would like to follow in my grandfather’s footsteps, he is an ophthalmologist and he inspired me to become a doctor.
