After this accomplishment, Mridul had a word with the media website, The Indian Express, he said, “After achieving cent percent marks in March session, I did not appear for the April session but took the May session as a practice test for the Advanced exam. Since the sessions were delayed, it allowed me more time to prepare for JEE Advanced and worked well for me to test the waters right before the exam.” 


He was then asked about the secret behind his success. He proudly replied, “Consistency has helped me in achieving this. Self-motivation is the key. Teachers, parents and friends can motivate you but no one can do it 24X7. I focused on debugging the problems in my preparation strategy instead of beating myself up for every mistake.”
