But he chose to focus on the task in hand, instead of worrying about the future. The rest was history. Sarthak Aggarwal, the student of Delhi Public School in Vasant Kunj, emerged as the topper of this year&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.askiitians.com\/school-exams\/cbse\/class-12.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>CBSE class XII Board exams<\/b><\/a>, with 99.6 % marks in the Science stream!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sarthak, in an interview said that <b>Class XII\u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a0board exam<\/b> is an important juncture in every student&#8217;s life, as it marks a transition from school to college. He too gave a lot of significance to these exams as he wanted to pursue a graduate degree in economics and admission to the best college would have depended entirely on his marks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The primary reason why he has been able to achieve his goal in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.askiitians.com\/school-exams\/cbse\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Class 12<sup>th<\/sup> CBSE results<\/b><\/a>, is because of his clarity in approach that too right from the word go. Sarthak strongly suggests that everyone should decide on a\u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a0career objective first, and strive hard to achieve it, and very importantly, making sure not to digress. In spite of everything, a\u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a0straight line\u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a0is the shortest distance between two points.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">His success may have been extraordinary, still the\u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a0path\u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a0towards it can be summed up in the age-old adage \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u20ac\u0153 \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00cb\u0153Practice makes perfect\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2.\u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a0 Though this is nothing new, but he still wanted to share it with everyone. He worked immensely hard and studied between 10 to 15 hours a day for <b>Class 12 CBSE board exams<\/b>. He got constant guidance from his parents and teachers and made sure that he learnt from every mistake.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sarthak\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s main focus was to correct his shortcomings and to reinforce what he already knew. About that, his teachers worked hard and relentlessly, thus making sure that every possible error was taken into consideration.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<div align=\"center\">\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\/\/ <![CDATA[\ngoogle_ad_client = \"ca-pub-1973513311082962\"; google_ad_slot = \"6209276339\"; google_ad_width = 336; google_ad_height = 280;\n\/\/ ]]><\/script><\/p>\n<ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another tip he wanted to share with everyone is that, the Internet is not just Facebook and Twitter. Internet has boundless opportunities for learning via interactive\u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a0animations,\u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a0question banks and video lectures. He made extensive use of these tools when he needed to go beyond what the books could offer. This practise gave him required knowledge in quick time and such knowledge from any other source in such a less time is practically impossible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Finally, Sarthak gave a last message to everyone that simply try and give your best shot, and don\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2t think too much about the <b>12<sup>th<\/sup> Class results<\/b>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.askiitians.com\/online-study-packages.aspx?utm_source=banner%20blog&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=ecom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"BOOST your IIT JEE\/AIPMT preparation through our self study packages\" src=\"https:\/\/www.askiitians.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/2014125-153120170-5704-Boost-banner_new.jpg\" alt=\"BOOST your IIT JEE\/AIPMT preparation through our self study packages\" width=\"715\" height=\"194\" \/><\/a> Sarthak confessed that the happiness he got from writing his\u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a0<b>12<sup>th<\/sup> Class Board exams\u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a0in<\/b> the best possible way, was far greater than all the glitter that followed his <b>CBSE results<\/b>.
