The class 12 student didn’t become a recluse in order to top the CBSE exams. Topping the boards was not a target for her. Nevertheless, she wanted to do her best and score well. “I always made a point to take part in all activities in the school and that is important for your overall development. While studying at home, I made sure that I studied not more than one hour at a stretch. I used to take short breaks so I can reach out for the next session,” she added.
Oman toppers in different streams of Class XII are as follows: Science – Sneha Ann Reji (Indian School Darsait – 98.6%); Commerce – Sana (Indian School Al Seeb – 97.2%); and Humanities – Karishma Kalis (Indian School Muscat – 99.2%).
