Hailing from a humble family, in Gujarat, Prerna Agarwal wouldn’t have it any other way than to take a drop-year to achieve her desired score in JEE. She scored around 75 percentile on her first attempt in JEE. Though she had prepared with all her dedication, something was amiss at her first attempt. She identified that she wasn’t working on her minor mistakes as much as she needed to.
 

She watched the YouTube videos of Vedantu and could notice good improvements in her studies. Thereafter, Prerna chose to join Vedantu for her JEE preparation in the drop year. She took the scholarship test and earned herself an incredible discount for the fee, as well. She says that the best thing about Vedantu is the motivation given to all students by our Master Teachers in the classes. She opted for a personal mentor to address her doubts.

In middle school, she faced difficulty in scoring in Maths. However, she has been improving since Class 10, and now, with the tips and tricks shared by our Master Teachers, Prerna finds Maths to be the most interesting subject. Defying all odds, she has proven that she can achieve her goals. She liked the energetic environment maintained in the online classes of Vedantu. She is relieved to have all the study resources and strategies from our mentors.

She suggests the JEE aspirants learn and focus on Chemistry and not mug up the concepts of Physics. She adds that with practice they can grow their interest in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics.

At this young age, Inbazhagan realised that taking risks and investing time in academics were important for him. He got to know about Vedantu through our YouTube channel, and he took VSAT before pursuing our online classes. Covering the syllabus of two years in 6 months made him feel exhausted at times.

It made him even more determined to work harder toward his goals. 


He found Mathematics to be the toughest subject and prepared it very strategically for JEE.
