I learn from mistakes and become stronger — Om Prakash Behera
Om Prakash Behera of Allen Career Institute has obtained a perfect score of 300 out of 300 in JEE Main January session exam. His NTA score is 100. Om Prakash said that while preparing for JEE Main and JEE Advanced, he follows the guidelines of teachers only.
For JEE Main, Om Prakash mainly focused on NCERT syllabus. The graph of marks kept fluctuating in weekly mock tests but I tried to give my best, he said adding that after every test, he used to do self-analysis and see which mistakes were responsible for getting less marks.
“In the next test, I would try not to repeat those mistakes. My success mantra is that instead of focusing on what has already happened, I focus on what is happening. I do not have a phone because it distracts the attention. Currently, I am busy preparing for JEE Advanced. I do self-study for about 8 to 9 hours daily. I want to do B.Tech. from CS branch of IIT Mumbai,” he said.
Om Prakash, a resident of Bhubaneswar, Odisha and a regular classroom student of Allen Kota for the last three years, has passed Class 10th with 92 per cent marks. Om Prakash likes to read novels. He lives with his mother in Kota. Om Prakash’s mother Smita Rani Behera is a college lecturer in education subject in Odisha, but, to give better care to her son during studies, she has left her job and is living in Kota for the last three years. His father, Kamalkant Behera is an officer of Odisha Administrative Services.
Arnav Singh has obtained 100 NTA score in JEE Main January session exam. Arnav, a resident of Bhopal in Madhya Pradesh, has been a classroom student of Allen Career Institute since 2019.
Saying that his current focus is on JEE Advanced 2025, Arnav said: “I seriously complete whatever homework I get after class every day. Along with practice, doubts also come out from homework. The more doubts you clear, the stronger your grip on the topic will be. I study for 10-12 hours daily.”
His father, who is a faculty of Mathematics in Allen, has been his constant motivator.
“Many times he also clears my doubts. Earlier, I had secured 97 per cent marks in 10th class. Currently, my focus is on JEE Advanced. IIT Bombay is my dream institution, therefore, I am trying my best to get the top rank so that my dream can come true,” Arnav added.
Rajit Gupta, a resident of Mahavir Nagar in Career City Kota, has brought laurels to Kota, the Kashi of education, by scoring 100 NTA score in JEE Main January Session.
Rajit is a regular classroom student of Allen Career Institute. Earlier, he has passed 10th class with 96.8 percent marks.
“My main focus was not to repeat the mistakes, because only when mistakes are removed, the foundation of your subject becomes strong. Happiness is my key of success. I remain happy in every situation,” he said.
“I am currently in class 12th but whenever I get a chance, I play with the children of the colony. I am confident about my preparation. I had not even seen the answer key. My father told me to get the answer key once but I said, ‘Papa, don’t worry, I will qualify for Advanced’. However, I never strictly followed a schedule for studies because it creates unnecessary pressure. So I used to study only when I felt like it, but for whatever time I studied, I used to study well. I used to study further in the topic only after clearing my doubts. Allen is the perfect institute for preparing for exams like JEE. Here, apart from the teachers’ guidelines and Allen’s study material, you do not need to get distracted anywhere. Currently, the focus is on JEE Advanced. Father Deepak Gupta is a sub-divisional engineer in BSNL and mother Dr. Shruti Agarwal is a professor of home science subject in JDB College.”

He credits his success to the weekly tests that improved his performance and the regular doubt-solving sessions that strengthened his grip on the topics. Now his main focus is on JEE Advanced.
