Biggest motivation
As a child I was always interested in Mathematics, so PCM was a clear choice in Class 11. I also have a keen interest in technology and have studied computer science since Class 6. I enjoy programming and coding and know the computer language Python. Due to my family, I knew about IITs and therefore, I always wanted to study in one of them.
My biggest inspirations have to be my father and brother, especially my brother who guided me a lot while preparing for IIT from making notes to organising everything.
What do I want to do in future
I want to invent, especially something that is very futuristic like the recently launched Apple VR headset. I want to develop technology that would help solve problems and improve the daily lives of people.
What was my schedule like?
I would make sure that I study for 8 to 10 hours consistently every day. I won’t study for 8 to 10 hours at a stretch but instead for 3 hours each and then take a break in between to refresh my mind. During the breaks, I would watch TV series, movies or listen to music. I particularly like Bollywood songs.
I had coaching for 3-4 days a week and one separate day for tests. For preparation, I stuck to my coaching material and NCERT, especially for Chemistry.
My favourite subjects
Mathematics is my strongest and most favourite subject. Physics too is nice. I just did not like inorganic chemistry that much.
Advice for students appearing for JEE
It’s a long journey, enjoy what you are studying. Focus on everything that you do, work on your weaknesses and turn it into your strengths. One thing I have realised is that group studies help. I made some great friends in Class 12 during preparation.
