Moral support of my parents and brother, well planned study, guidance from Principle, intrinsic motivation, moral and technical study support of my friends are the major contributors of my success. Q. What strategy/study plan did you follow while preparing for the exam? Ans. First of all for 4 months you have to forget everything apart from studies. Th e fi rst thing is to stop using all social networking sites for 4 months. I made a strategy of not to be in touch with the social networking sites – I even stopped using my Smartphone. In last 4 months, I studied for 12 to 13 hours a day. I used to take Th ree subjects (one theory, one practical and either DT or IDT) in day so that I could always be energetic throughout the day. I never ignored Institutes’ Study Material. I prepared my expected mark sheet; I prepared long-term plans, broken down long-term plans into weekly plans. I used to celebrate the achievement on Sundays after achieving weekly targets with my friends. I have planned for revising the entire syllabus for three times and implemented the same.
