Mahi Agarwal challenges

Her journey was not without challenges. Mahi faced backlogs during her preparation but refused to give up. She shifted from live to recorded lectures, using increased playback speed to cover missed topics and revise efficiently.

“I had some backlog, so I started watching recorded lectures on increased speed,” Mahi recalled.

She was open about her weak areas, especially in Law, and worked relentlessly through writing practice, consistent revisions, and reliance on teacher-provided notes. Her disciplined study schedule and persistence helped her overcome every obstacle.

Mahi’s story highlights how focus, adaptability, and a never-quit attitude can turn setbacks into success.

“There were many times when I felt very demotivated, especially when I used to study alone,” she said.
“At that time, the teachers were very supportive — they motivated us a lot in class.”
“Sometimes I felt like maybe I wouldn’t even pass, but my family always supported me, saying, ‘Yes, you’ll definitely bring good results.’”
“And it’s because of their support that I’m standing here today.”

Now, with her Foundation success behind her, Mahi is preparing for the CA Intermediate and Final levels with renewed determination. Her journey from a small town to achieving a top national rank stands as proof that discipline, guidance, and self-belief can turn any struggle into achievement.
