She was confident of having done well in the CET but had not expected the very first place in entire Maharashtra. She had made very dedicated preparations for two months before the test. During the pre-degree studies, she had made it a routine to revise the lessons for two or three hours after classes every day.

The result has brought her immense happiness to her and also to her parents, according to her. She credits her success to her hard work, support from the teaching staff and her parents and also to tuitions from Deodhar classes.

She is a step closer to her dream of becoming a doctor. Here’s wishing her all further success.
