First Attempt
On the day of the exam, I entered the crowded exam hall. I swiftly tackled the physics section in approximately 45 minutes. Chemistry followed and then came the challenging math section. I solved only 4-5 questions initially. I alternated between chemistry and math, revisiting questions until the last minute. After rechecking all my answers, I left the exam hall. I scored around 180 marks in the first attempt, securing a 98.7%ile. With this confidence, I knew I would get a good NIT with a CSE branch.
