Meet woman who did not go to coaching, secured AIR 1 in IIT PhD entrance, cracked UGC-NET, NIMHANS, also topped Class 12th board exam; she is…, hails from..
It is often believed that no obstacle is too big to overcome with real commitment and hard work. Damini Singh Brar, a 26-year-old, from Sanjauli, a small town near Shimla in Himachal Pradesh, demonstrates this belief. Damini Singh Brar has been able to overcome every hurdle because of her consistent focus to accomplish and work ethic that has allowed her dreams to become a reality while re-defining the meaning of academic success. Damini's commitment and innumerable hours of preparation enabled her not only to clear one of the most prestigious and difficult PhD entrance exams in the country, but to be at the top. She achieved All India Rank 1 in the PhD (Psychology) entrance at IIT Kanpur. Along with it, she also topped the PhD entrance exam of another leading institution in India, IIT Delhi. Damini topped the PhD entrance exam in Psychology at IIT Kanpur, claiming the All India Rank 1, as well as being ranked first in the PhD entrance exam at IIT Delhi. She has now decided to pursue a PhD at IIT Delhi, one of India's top institutes. But there's more! Damini also cleared (written exam) the test for PhD admissions for NIMHANS, Bengaluru and was invited for the interview. Earlier in 2024, she cleared the UGC-NET exam in Psychology in her first attempt, and this adds to her stack of achievements. You may find it hard to believe, but Damini was able to clear all such tough exams on her own and without coaching classes. She studied diligently through self-study, without attending any coaching classes. After hearing about her accomplishments, it's clear how brilliant she is academically. She was always an exceptional student. Damini does not just hold this status as an exceptional college graduate. She achieved her schooling as a top student in Shimla, then continued that as a topper in her Class 12 board exam. She consistently performed well from a very young age. After completing Class 12, Damini enrolled in Lady Shri Ram College for graduation in English Honours, which is one of the well-known colleges affiliated with Delhi University (DU). After that, she went on to complete her Master's in Applied Psychology from the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) Mumbai, which is one of India's leading institutes in the field of social sciences. It's important to notice that Damini comes from a poor family background. Her father Rajneesh Brar is a Sanitary Inspector with the Shimla Municipal Corporation, and her mother Meera Brar is a homemaker. Despite being from a poor family background, with few resources, she has made her family and hometown proud through her own hard work and effort. Everything she has achieved has been through her own doing. Today, Damini is an inspiration for millions of students in the country.

Balancing Boards and CLAT: A guide for class 12 students
For Class 12 students aspiring to crack the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT), managing board exam preparations alongside CLAT coaching can feel like walking a tightrope. Both milestones are crucial: board results often determine eligibility for further studies, while CLAT opens doors to India's premier National Law Universities (NLUs). The pressure is real, but the good news is you don't have to choose. With smart planning, consistent effort and a positive mindset, students can strike a balance between the and foremost, it is important to understand the timeline. CLAT is usually held in December, while CBSE and most state boards conduct exams between February and April. This means that students must juggle the rigours of CLAT preparation during their Class 12 academic positive aspect of CLAT being held earlier in the academic year is that it allows aspirants to focus entirely on their board examinations in the final months, without the added stress of preparing for CLAT. This insight comes from Rabmeet Kaur, Chief Academic Officer at Drishti IAS. KNOW THE DIFFERENCE IN DEMANDSCLAT tests aptitude—legal reasoning, logical thinking, comprehension, current affairs, and basic maths skills. Board exams, on the other hand, demand subject-specific knowledge and detailed answers. Preparing for both requires different approaches:CLAT requires prioritising mock tests, time-bound practice, and reading require focusing on textbooks, sample papers, and structured these differences early helps students manage their study schedules accordingly.A well-structured timetable is the first step toward achieving weekdays, I dedicate 2–3 hours to CLAT prep after-school hours and 1–2 hours to revising board on weekends, use one day for mock tests and deep CLAT prep; reserve the other day for thorough board short breaks, leisure time, and exercise into the routine to avoid burnout. Stick to the schedule but remain flexible enough to make adjustments based on performance and THE SWEET SPOT: OVERLAPPING SKILLSCertain aspects of CLAT preparation can significantly enhance performance in board examinations, and the reverse also holds. For instance:The reading and comprehension skills developed for the English board exams are directly useful for CLAT knowledge preparation for CLAT can help students stay aware of current affairs, and is useful for writing essays or reports in board reasoning hones your critical thinking, a skill that shines in both board answers and CLAT key is not to treat Boards and CLAT as entirely separate silos. By spotting these overlaps, you can streamline your efforts, making every study session count tests are non-negotiable for CLAT aspirants. Regular testing helps improve speed, accuracy, and confidence. By taking one full-length mock test every week, students can track their progress, understand question patterns, and fine-tune their strategies. Simultaneously, solving previous years' board papers helps build familiarity and confidence for school beyond studying—reflect and review. Evaluate your test performance, pinpoint your weaker sections and keep working on those areas. Progress comes from smart effort, not just hard ON GUIDANCEBalancing both exams need not be a solitary journey. Talk to teachers, mentors, and peers. Join a peer study group for CLAT preparation. Attend school revision classes diligently. If needed, seek professional coaching for CLAT, especially for sections like legal reasoning and quantitative is equally important to stay motivated. Law is a rewarding career path that offers immense scope. Knowing the 'why' behind your efforts can help you push through tough CLAT is done in December, shift your focus entirely to board exams. The foundational work laid out earlier will help you cover the syllabus more efficiently. Revise NCERTs, attempt full-length board papers, and consult teachers for any boards and CLAT is certainly challenging, but achievable, nonetheless. The key lies in time management, focused preparation and mental resilience. With a calm mind and consistent effort, students can do justice to both exams and set the stage for a bright future in law. It is not about doing everything at once—it is about doing the right things at the right time.
