Read edited excerpts here.
What was your preparation like?
I scored 96% in my class X Board exams and was the subject topper in Hindi with a 97, alongside a current classmate. My preparation started slow, but I picked up pace around November and stayed consistent until the Boards. I first solved NCERT and school worksheets before tackling other problems.
Which stream have you taken ahead and what are your plans?
I have chosen PCM as my stream and plan to take the JEE 2026 exam to pursue Mechanical Engineering.
How did your teachers support you?
The teachers at Apeejay are superb. They shared plenty of resources that helped in practice. The classroom teaching was quite interesting. Some of the questions discussed in class appeared directly in the examination.
How has your journey been at school so far?
My journey at Apeejay has been full of fun. I feel connected to this school and the people here.
Message for students appearing for class X Boards next year.
The Board exams are easy if you have the right approach. Practising Math and Physics is essential for improvement, so don’t avoid it. Follow whatever the teachers say as they have experience and will guide you to success. Finally, take all tests seriously. If you don’t score well at first, don’t stress — focus on improving. With consistent effort, your scores will increase just like mine did.
