PCB Topper: Preesha Shinde with 98.4% says...
“I was expecting about 95 percent. I want to become a doctor. I am inspired by my Nanu (Dr BD Khandelwal). My father (Akshay Shinde) is regional head and mother (Dipti Shinde) are my inspiration. I have seen him helping people and I like that feeling. I gave NEET. It went well. I am blessed with a supportive family. I went to school and coaching that took 10 hours and apart for them, I had 3 hours of self-study. I had to prepare subjective for CBSE and objective for NEET. We had 2 pre-boards before the exam. During lockdown, sitting in front of the screen was very difficult. It was easy to get distracted. It was very tough to keep focus. I often paint and listen to music to relax.”
