<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

Vaishnavi said her medical entrance exam<\/a> preparation began in Class 8 when she decided to seriously pursue medicine. She later joined Chaitanya\u2019s MPL programme for medical aspirants and continued her preparation with the institute until Class 12.Speaking about her mock test routine, she said full-syllabus tests were gradually increased during the preparation phase. \u201cWe started with one full-syllabus mock test a day around December and slowly built it up. Towards the end, we were attempting around two mock tests every day,\u201d she said.According to Vaishnavi, the structured test practice helped her deal with the pressure associated with NEET. She said that while the exam can feel mentally challenging, becoming more prepared and enjoying the learning process can help reduce fear.<\/p>\n

\u2018I never counted study hours; I focused on completing my daily targets\u2019
<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

Sharing her time management approach, Vaishnavi said she did not measure her preparation based on the number of hours spent studying.\u201cI personally never counted the hours. For me, it was about creating a schedule every week for the entire week and completing what was planned for each day,\u201d she said.She added that finishing the assigned tasks was her priority, regardless of the time it took. \u201cIf it is 12 am or 1 am, it does not really matter. The main thing is completing the tasks that I had decided to finish for the day,\u201d she said.Advising NEET aspirants, Vaishnavi said students should not lose hope during the long preparation journey. \u201cTwo years is not a short time, but keep practising. Believe in yourself and the books you have around you. Keep revising your NCERTs \u2014 they are the gold standard,\u201d she said.She also stressed the importance of maintaining health during preparation. \u201cStay as positive as you can because it requires a lot of positivity, and do not neglect your health. Sleep is just as important,\u201d she added.<\/div>\n
