Balance study and play, say Class 12 toppers

New Delhi: Balancing study with play is the formula for success, say
students who have topped the Class 12 CBSE exams.

Nikhil Pandhi from Vasant Valley school of Delhi, who scored 97.5
percent in humanities stream says he was regular in studies and had
fun as well.

"I am very happy that my hard work was fruitful. I did not make a time
table but eventually a time table was formed. I would get up at 6.30
a.m. But never studied all night. One has to be consistent... at the
time of studying, focus on studies, and at the time of having fun,
have a lot of fun," he said.

"You must understand what you are writing. If you understand it you
can write it in simpler manner," he said.

Second topper from the school, Riya who got 97 percent, says selective
study was the key.

"I studied in the morning, 4 a.m. to 6 a.m., I did selective study and
focused on what I felt was important," said Riya.

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) Class 12 results for
seven regions in the country as well as foreign and Gulf centres were
announced on Monday. IANS
