Mythili Mishra, 2nd topper of CBSE class XII exam

Mythili Mishra of Amity International School, who achieved a second rank in the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) class XII exams, wants to become an IAS officer.

With 99 per cent marks, she is also the Uttar Pradesh state topper.

Mythili wants to procure a bachelor's and master's degree in Political Science and then aspires to be an IAS officer. Both her parents are advocates.

17-year-old Mythili loves to paint and read.

When she checked her results at home after they were declared on Monday, she did not know that she was the second topper in the country. It was only when calls started pouring from her school and the media.

Mythili says she used to study regularly for 4 to 5 hours per day after attending school. And during exams she studied for over 12 hours daily.

Always present in the class, she said she never bunked classes.
