The results also underscored the dominance of the southern region, with candidates from Telangana, Andhra Pradesh and other states featuring prominently among the top scorers.
Aasna’s achievement is a perfect example of how hard work and consistency lead to success. In an interaction after the result, she shared valuable insights into her preparation strategy, family support, and future dreams.
HOW DID AASNA PREPARE ON THE EXAM DAY?
Aasna said she remained calm, confident, and fully focused on the day of the examination. Rather than starting any new topics at the last moment, she chose to revise her personal notes along with the short notes prepared by her teachers. This helped her stay clear with concepts and avoid unnecessary stress before the exam.
“Revision gave me confidence before entering the exam hall,” she said through her preparation approach.
WHAT WAS HER STUDY SCHEDULE DURING PREPARATION?
According to Aasna, consistency played the biggest role in her success. She followed a disciplined study plan and effectively balanced her school academics with JEE preparation through regular practice, timely revision, and proper time management.
“It’s not about studying for long hours one day, but studying sincerely every day,” said Aasna while sharing the secret behind her success.
When asked whether she expected such an exceptional result, Aasna said she believed she could achieve it if things went well. Her confidence reflects the mindset of a topper.
WHAT WAS HER JEE MAIN SESSION 1 SCORE?
Aasna revealed that she had scored the 99.49 percentile in JEE Main Session 1. While it was already an excellent score, she treated it as motivation to push herself further and refine her preparation for Session 2. With greater focus, consistent revision, and dedicated practice, she significantly improved her performance to an outstanding 99.9982287 percentile.
“I was happy with my Session 1 result, but I knew I could do even better. That motivated me to work harder for Session 2,” Aasna added.
WHOM DOES SHE CREDIT FOR HER SUCCESS?
Aasna humbly credited her achievement to her teachers and family. She acknowledged their continuous encouragement, guidance, and unwavering support throughout her preparation journey.
“I owe this success to my teachers and family, who supported me at every step and always believed in me,” she said.
WHAT ARE HER FUTURE GOALS?
After excelling in JEE Main, Aasna has now shifted her complete focus to JEE Advanced 2026, aiming to continue her impressive academic journey. Her long-term ambition is to pursue Computer Science Engineering from IIT Bombay, one of the country’s most prestigious engineering institutes.
She is now preparing with renewed determination to achieve her next big goal.
Aasna also shared that she largely stayed away from distractions such as excessive social media use during her preparation phase. However, she believed in maintaining a healthy balance and would occasionally step out or take short breaks to refresh her mind.
According to her, staying disciplined while giving oneself time to recharge is equally important for long-term success.
MESSAGE TO FUTURE JEE ASPIRANTS
For students preparing for JEE, Aasna’s advice was simple: believe in yourself and stay dedicated to your goals. She emphasised that self-confidence, regular practice, and consistency are the key ingredients for success.
According to her, students should trust their preparation, remain focused during difficult phases, and never lose motivation, even when challenges arise.
Mallavarapu Aasna’s success has made Telangana proud and once again showcased the dominance of southern states in national-level competitive exams. Even though no girl candidate secured a perfect 100 percentile this year, Aasna’s 99.9982287 percentile proves that excellence does not need a perfect round figure to shine.
As she now sets her sights on JEE Advanced and IIT Bombay, her inspiring journey sends a strong message to aspirants everywhere, that with discipline, confidence, and perseverance, no goal is out of reach.
