Covid-19 pandemic helped Aryan study and prepare better during the academic year. “The video lectures were recorded and hence, we could view the lecture again and again. Also, teachers have been really cooperative in clearing all my doubts,” he said. Aryan aspires to become a software engineer and take non-medical stream in Class XI.

Jeevanjot, also a student of St. Stephen’s, shared the top spot. She used to study for five-eight hours a day. She appeared for the pre-board exams in offline mode. She drew inspiration from her parents and wants to crack the IIT-JEE and pursue non-medical in the next class. Tanisha Gupta and Anav Jain from Little Flower Convent School, Panchkula, also topped the tricity in the Class X exams. Tanisha dedicated four hours a day to her studies. She will choose the medical stream and prepare for NEET. Anav said he liked to read books and play lawn tennis in his free time. He studies for eight to 10 hours a day and will opt for the non-medical stream.
