After two years of hard work, the toppers of the II PU examinations are elated after receiving their results. All of them stated that time management was key to their success while admitting that everyday revisions kept them sharp for the final examinations. While Simran Sesha Rao is the sole topper in the Science stream, there were two toppers in the Arts stream and four toppers in Commerce.
A student of NMKRV PU College in Bengaluru, Simran said that she was feeling ecstatic and overwhelmed after securing the highest marks of 598 out of 600 in Karnataka. She credited her success to her college, faculty and her family members who supported her throughout the two years. “I made a lot of sacrifices in these two years – from missing out on family gatherings to having no time to pursue my hobbies. “Now, it is all worth it,” she exclaimed. Following in the footsteps of her parents, she wants to pursue computer science engineering.
Commerce toppers said that they found their papers to be easy, although they said they spent many months preparing for their exams. “I was consistent in my preparation and mostly relied on the notes given by my teachers. I also noted down my own key points to remember important topics. To ensure I am not nervous, I treated these exams like regular exams. I have now enrolled for my B.com degree,” said Maanav Vinay Kejriwal, who studied in Jain PU College, Jayanagar. This CA/CMA aspirant scored a perfect 100 in Accountancy, Business studies and Economics.
