How did you prepare for the exam?

I prepared for the exam by diligently studying the NCERT textbooks, which provide a strong foundation and cover the core concepts in detail. Additionally, I followed the books recommended by the school, which offered in-depth explanations and practice problems to enhance my understanding. Consistent revision, solving previous years’ papers, and focusing on weak areas further strengthened my preparation.

For me, the most challenging part was mental ability as it was lengthy and I felt short of time but managed to complete it.

Which is your favourite subject and why?

My favourite subject is Economics as it provides insights into how the economy functions and offers a wide range of career opportunities related to finance. I also like Math though it was not a part of the exam.

How did Apeejay School support you in this journey?

My subject teachers were extremely supportive and supported me by providing worksheets and clearing my doubts whenever required.

What’s your ambition?

I want to pursue Economics (H) in future. Moreover, I am looking for growth and development in whichever field I work in the future.
