The twins shared their secret to success as well. Nishant was quoted saying, “I followed a routine. I made sure to study all three subjects daily. On topics that I found relatively difficult, I devoted more time. Achieving a set target, clearing exams and achieving good marks was our motivation.” 

They said that diligently following a fixed schedule helped them reach their goal. They also included physical activity in their daily routine to relax. Well, this sounds like an achievable plan, doesn’t it? What’s your secret to passing exams? Let us know in the comments below.
