Focused Study and Adequate Breaks Enable Aakash Institute’s Mrinal Kutteri from Hyderabad to Become National Topper by securing AIR 01 and scoring a perfect 720/720 in NEET UG 2021
● Mrinal bags AIR 01 thanks to his training at Aakash Institute
● Finds NCERT books and Aakash study materials highly useful in cracking the NEET exam
Hyderabad, November 01, 2021: Following a well-balanced routine marked by focused sessions of study and adequate breaks, Mrinal Kutteri, a student of Aakash Institute Hyderabad has scored a perfect 720 marks in NEET UG 2021 and secured AIR 01. Once a chemical engineering aspirant, Mrinal decided to be a doctor as a class 9 student when he realized that the medical field would give him a better opportunity to serve the society, and a career in healthcare would always be interesting and challenging.
“From day one, my mentors at Aakash Institute asked me to study National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) books thoroughly. Initially I found the NCERT material and other resources from Aakash quite in-depth and exhaustive. But I quickly got into the habit of studying intently for short durations of about 45 minutes and taking a rejuvenating break of 10-15 minutes after that. This proved to be productive, and I could score well in tests,” Mrinal says. For him, breaks mostly meant playing video games or watching TV. His parents – software engineer mother and HR consultant father, did not have to breathe down his neck, as Mrinal had the willpower to get back to his studies after every short break.
“I did not leave my hobbies while preparing for NEET. I think that to do so would have been counterproductive,” Mrinal opines. He says that the lockdown period was a double edged sword. Though there was no time wasted on travel, studying from home could be very distracting. Hence, he made sure that he had an environment optimized for focused study. For instance, he did not have a mobile phone near him when he studied. “I reduced my interactions with friends during the last month before the NEET exam. But I did not cut myself off from the outside world in the name of NEET.”
Commenting about the stupendous success of Mrinal, Mr Aakash Chaudhry, Managing Director, Aakash Educational Services Limited, said, “The entire team at Aakash was rooting for Mrinal, who was one of our brightest students. We found him very confident and consistent. He had the right frame of mind and the headspace needed for his study. He also never missed an opportunity to clear his doubts with his teachers and mentors. He was always the first one to turn in the assignments. The interesting thing about Mrinal is that he never allowed himself to come under any undue pressure or stress. We congratulate Mrinal for winning in style. We wish him all the best with his higher studies and a fulfilling career in medicine.”
Mrinal thanked his teachers and mentors at Aakash for pushing him to improve his performance but without pressuring him. He mentioned that the mock tests he took at Aakash almost every alternate day boosted his confidence in cracking the final NEET exam.

● Sonit who secured AIR 56 credited Aakash Institute’s structured and streamlined coaching sessions for his success
Bengaluru, November 02, 2021: The easiest way to win distractions is to eliminate them was the success mantra for Sonit Sai Reddy Vasipalli, a student of Aakash Institute in Bangalore, who obtained AIR 56 with a score of 705 out of 720 in NEET UG 2021.
One of the things he did, as he was preparing for NEET during the lockdown, was to make sure that there was no smartphone around him. “When you have a phone next to you, it is very hard not to check it. It is not about you or anybody else. It is quite natural,” he feels. The mobile phone he was using for accessing video lectures and other study materials did not have any social media app. “These apps were designed to suck you in and kick you out of your focus,” he reasons. To be 100% fool proof, he even made an arrangement of not knowing the password of the smartphone – every time he had to use it, he explained why he needed it to his mother and asked her to unlock it.
When it came to subjects, it was not easy for Sonit to decide on whether to pursue Physics, Chemistry, Biology or Physics, Chemistry, Maths. He was happy learning both till Class IX. But he realised that he had to make a decision soon, if he were to score high in a competitive exam. Sonit chose the former as he started developing a liking for biology. His mother, who was working as a biochemist and who quit her job to be available for Sonit and his younger sister, helped him make the right decision.
Though Sonit could save time as he did not have to travel to the centre for his classes and tests during the lockdown, he did not know how to use it. He says: “Here is where Aakash came into the picture. The institute had introduced a structure to his preparations from the beginning till the end. It gave me resources like NCERT Maps, diagrams, and formula books. I got new perspectives of the same subject. I did not feel bored.”
His mother pointed out that the staff from Aakash called her quite often to make sure that Sonit was not following his schedule and was not facing any difficulties with his preparations during the lockdown.
Sonit found physics extremely interesting, but he was comparatively weak in organic chemistry. He read over and over again but he could not make much progress. So he tried new ways of conquering the subject. One of them was listening to explanations from Aakash’s staff and writing short notes. With time, he was making progress. Sonit’s future goal is to realise his potential and make a difference to the society in whatever way possible. He is looking forward to joining a reputed medical college.
In his comments about Sonit’s achievement,Mr Aakash Chaudhry, Managing Director, Aakash Educational Services Limited, said, “One thing so special about Sonit is that the moment he knows that he has a potential in something, he makes all the efforts to achieve his full potential. It is not about competing with others, rather doing his best. I think this attitude is what helped Sonit to score big in NEET. I have no doubt that he will shine in whatever he chooses to do in his life. I congratulate Sonit and appreciate his parents for their support and guidance to him.”

Shield your eyes the right way to enjoy the glow of Diwali festivities
Every year during Diwali, hospitals see considerable increase in cases of firework injuries
Lack of awareness on safety for lighting crackers and not using protective eye gear are responsible for the majority of these injuries.
Bangalore / November 1, 2021: Fireworks are used worldwide to express festivity and cheer especially in India during Diwali.But if the fireworks are not handled under supervision or guidance it could lead to injury to skin and eyes. These eye injuries can cause serious and irreparable damage to vision. Every year during Diwali, hospitals notice several fold increases in firework injuries. Lack of awareness on safety for lighting crackers and not using protective eye gear are responsible for the majority of these injuries. Most susceptible to injuries during Diwali are members of the pediatric age group who are not under the supervision of responsible adults.
“Firework injuries are responsible for a large number of ocular injuries. Generally, patients complain of a foreign body sensation, ocular pain, reduced vision, redness, tearing and photosensitivity or photophobia. The most common injuries include hyphema, eyelid injuries, traumatic iridodialysis, retinal detachment and corneal abrasion,” said Dr Venkatesh Babu, Consultant, Ophthalmologist, Dr. Agarwal’s Eye Hospital Bengaluru
Fireworks can also cause lid and ocular surface chemical and thermal burns. This in turn can lead to corneal opacity and blindness. Sometimes it causes globe perforation and intra ocular foreign bodies in the eye due to projectile injuries. This can lead to irreversible loss of vision, added Dr Venkatesh Babu.
Therefore, this Diwali, it is imperative that one uses protective eye gear while bursting crackers and while children should actually not be allowed to burst crackers at all, if they have to, they must do so under strict parental supervision.
“Ideally fireworks should be set off outdoors in a clear area, away from houses, dry leaves or grass or other flammable materials. One should always keep a bucket of water nearby for emergencies and for pouring over fireworks that fail to ignite or explode. Never light fireworks in a container, especially a glass or metal container and never try to relight or handle malfunctioning fireworks. Just soak them in water and dispose safely. Even spectators can be at risk so it is advised that safety instructions be followed and fireworks be viewed from at least 500 feet away,” said Dr Venkatesh Babu.
Further, projectile fireworks, like rockets and bombs, which are responsible for the majority of injuries, should be strictly avoided. Even the seemingly harmless sparkler fireworks can be dangerous, as they burn at more 1093 degrees celsius, therefore sparkler mishaps have also been known to create serious eye injuries and even death.
The DO’s and DON’ Ts in case of eye injuries caused due to firecrackers:
Don’t use any eye drops without doctor’s advice.
Don’t rub your eyes
Don’t rinse your eyes
Don’t apply pressure
Don’t remove any objects that are stuck in the eye.
