Sought guidance from elder brother
Khushi Mahawar has become the city topper by scoring 99.4 percent. Her elder brother has also passed the board exam in class 12th this year. He has secured 82 percent. Whenever there was any doubt in science or mathematics, I used to seek help from my elder brother. Both of us brothers and sisters stayed away from internet media. Both of us used to study together. We sometimes used smartphones for online studies. I used to set chapter wise targets every day and study accordingly. She also used to revise the chapter which she had read, so that it gets completed. Time management and discipline is very important. After studying for half or an hour, she used to talk to my parents or brother. My dream is to become an engineer. Reason: I will study further by taking PCM on the 11th.
