Seshadri Iyer from Mumbai’s Borivali is among 28 candidates who scored a perfect 100 percentile in MHTCET 2023. The result of the common entrance test is released today. This student of Nirmala Memorial College, however, is anxiously awaiting his NEET result. “I want to pursue medical for higher education,” said Iyer who appeared for MHTCET in the PCB group.
He continued, “It is my dream to join the medical field. I love to help others and there is no better way to do this than saving lives.” Watching television series such as Grey’s Anatomy, Good Doctor has been his favourite pass time. “But that was before I started preparing for NEET, that is, after Class 10. During the past two years, reading non-academic content has been my stress-buster. Reading encyclopedia or searching facts on current affairs on Google,” he said.
Iyer also appeared for JEE Main too and scored 95 percentile. “But I missed the deadline to register for JEE Advanced, after Main,” he said adding that this wasn’t a disaster for him like others as his focus is on medical.
“Appearing for all other competitive exams is a backup plan,” said the topper who appeared for the Maharashtra state board exam for Class 12 and scored 87 per cent. He shared how he studied only for three months to prepare for the board exam. Iyer studied at Arihant Academy for NEET as well as CET.
