The second and third positions have been bagged by Siddhartha Biswas from Kendriya Vidyalaya, RK Puram and Raskhit Malik, a visually-impaired student of Amity International School, Noida. They have scored 484 and 482 marks respectively.
Unlike others, Rakshit, who aspires to pursue a career in the field of education or join the Indian Foreign Services, did not take coaching classes to prepare for the exams. Infact, he told News18, that it isn’t difficult to achieve this score if one has the support of parents and teachers.
