“Being thorough with your NCERT books is enough to get through JEE Mains. The exam was easy. I practised NCERTs and previous years’ question papers. I also appeared for national level Olympiads which not only gave me a sense of where my preparation stands at the national level but also helps me represent my country in my own way,” said Arora.
A teen from Patiala, Jayesh Singla of Punjab who secured overall rank four refused to use the phone after class 10. He used a basic phone without WhatsApp. His father told indianexpress.com that Singla loved Physics and mathematics. While his parents are both doctors, he opted for non-medical for the love of science.
