"I am originally from Jaipur. I got AIR- 83 in NEET-UG. During COVID Lockdown, I studied online. After that, I switched to offline classes. While doing an internship at VMMC Hospital I could study for a few hours every day. My golden rule for preparation was to follow just one source for studying. My family is thrilled to know that I have become the topper. Even during my preparation, I used to take a day off every week to go meet my friends and chill. I used to go out even on special occasions like birthdays, new year. This is very important for everyone to relax once a week while preparing for the exam to reduce stress," Arushi said in a youtube channel.
