Avira Banerjee : My preparation was rooted in consistency and discipline. I studied for 8 to 10 hours a day, making sure to go through previous years’ question papers and re-read all the NCERT textbooks thoroughly. I also focused on mock tests, especially for the subjects I found more challenging. This approach helped me understand patterns and manage time better, while also boosting my confidence. My subject teachers were catalysts in improving my understanding of the subjects that I had. My dream is to become a civil servant. Music has always been a big part of my life. I love singing—it's almost like therapy to me. My mother, Antara Banerjee, is the principal of a school.
