RISE has played an important role in my selection to IIT. Teachers provided with assistance whenever needed, helped me with the doubt clearance and used to motivate continuously. Moreover, consistency matters a lot. Studying consistently for 4-5 hours everyday and revising simultaneously, was my key to success. Communication blockades, lack of motivation, and sometimes not getting good marks even after preparing well, were some challenges that I faced constantly but could overcome them all with the support of teachers and my perseverance. It feels good to see Kashmiri students getting into IITs. I hope in future more students will make it to IITs and other great educational institutions of the world with the guidance and support from RISE.
