Lucknow: Students from Lucknow who secured admission to prestigious undergraduate management and professional programmes, including those offered by the Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs), recently shared their success stories and valuable preparation tips with aspirants preparing for the 2027 admission cycle.

The Topper’s Talk, organised by SuperGrads by Top Rankers at its Hazratganj office, brought together successful students who shared insights from their preparation journeys, including time management techniques, study strategies and approaches to entrance examinations.
SuperGrads prepares students for entrance examinations for IPM programmes as well as undergraduate programmes at IIM Bangalore, IIM Kozhikode, TAPMI, Symbiosis, Narsee Monjee, NICMAR, NFSU Gandhinagar and various undergraduate programmes at Delhi University, among others.
The success story of Shreshtha, a Humanities student from CMS Mahanagar, was among the highlights of the event. She prepared for her entrance examination alongside her Class 12 board examinations and has also completed Sangeet Visharad in Indian classical vocal music.
Another Humanities student, Aishwarya Khanna, took a one-year gap to prepare for the entrance examinations and eventually achieved success. Sharing her experience, she said that the additional year of preparation and hard work now feels completely worthwhile.
Meanwhile, Rashika, a PCM student from CMS Gomti Nagar, successfully balanced her board examinations with entrance exam preparation. To manage her time effectively, she would wake up at 4:30 a.m. every day and dedicate the early hours to her studies.

Jeshna, a student of CMS Mahanagar, prepared with SuperGrads for two years. She continued her entrance examination preparation alongside her board examinations and successfully secured admission.
The event also highlighted the achievement of a student who secured a 100% scholarship at Ashoka University, demonstrating the diverse opportunities available to students through focused preparation and the right guidance.
Vishal Sharma, Centre Director, Top Rankers, said, “Success in undergraduate entrance examinations today is not limited to securing good marks. Consistent preparation in the right direction, effective time management and discipline towards one’s goal play a crucial role in a student’s success. The achievements of our toppers, who come from diverse academic backgrounds, demonstrate that with the right guidance, every student can work towards securing admission to their dream institution.”
The toppers advised the 2027 aspirants to focus on consistent preparation, regular practice, mock tests, effective time management and a clear understanding of concepts. They emphasised that with proper guidance and disciplined preparation, students from Humanities, PCM and other academic backgrounds can successfully compete for admission to some of the country’s leading undergraduate programmes.
The Topper’s Talk, organised by SuperGrads, aimed to connect the experiences of successful students with the upcoming batch of aspirants and provide them with practical insights into entrance examination preparation.
