Academic Journey and Preparation
Srajan credited his success to consistent hard work and a balanced study routine. He emphasized the importance of understanding concepts rather than rote memorization. "I focused on clearing my basics and practiced previous years' question papers. Time management during the exam was crucial," he added. His teachers at the coaching institute also played a pivotal role, providing guidance and encouragement.
The topper's favorite subjects are Physics and Mathematics, which he found challenging but rewarding. He plans to pursue a degree in Computer Science or Electronics and Communication Engineering at a top college in Karnataka.
