“Learning a subject or concentrating on a particular topic just for enjoyment and not just for mere marks is where I made the difference. I had to put in a lot of effort as the preparation for JEE-advanced was very tough. My study time started from 6.30 a.m. in the morning and continued till 8.30 a.m. in the evening,” said the young topper. 

Shishir loves to play Rubik’s cube, watch videos on YouTube and also at time plays Badminton to ease his stress. 

“My parents were my biggest motivation who constantly supported me, analysed my mistakes and provided critical feedbacks to further work on them. They have also ensured that I have a good health to carry on,” said he.

“I also owe a lot to my Organic Chemistry teacher whose guidance has helped me to go a long way.”
