JEE-Main 2026—Following Faculty Guidance is the Mantra for Success: Kabir Chhillar
JEE Main: All India Rank 1
Father: Mohit Chhillar (IITian)
Mother: Priyanka Chhillar (Private Teacher)
Date of Birth: July 30, 2008 Kabeer Chhillar, a classroom student at Allen Career Institute, Kota, has secured All India Rank 1 in JEE Main 2026 by achieving a perfect score of 300 out of 300 marks. For the past two years, Kabeer has been a regular classroom student at Allen Career Institute. He belongs to Gurugram. This achievement is the result of his consistent hard work, precise strategy, and self-analysis. Kabeer’s father, Mohit Chhillar, is an IITian currently employed at a private company, while his mother, Priyanka Chhillar, is a teacher at a private school. Prior to this, Kabeer had passed his 10th-grade examinations with 98 percent marks. Kabeer stated, "I attribute the primary reason for my success to the guidance provided by my faculty members; additionally, I adopted a unique approach to my studies. This is because, during self-study, I prioritize both my attention span and the quality of learning. After every test, I conducted a self-analysis and focused most intensely on the specific areas where I identified shortcomings. I fine-tuned my study strategy before every examination. Alongside taking regular mock tests, I conducted a deep analysis of every paper, which led to continuous improvement in both my accuracy and time management skills. Having clear conceptual clarity is paramount. Rather than rote learning, my greatest strength has been my ability to truly understand every topic and apply that knowledge. I broke down my studies into small, manageable targets, created concise notes, and made regular revision a habit. To avoid repeating mistakes, I would focus on my weaknesses after every test. I also spared time to spend with my friends, which helps me stay mentally refreshed. My goal for the future is crystal clear. After completing my B.Tech in Computer Science from IIT Bombay, I wish to pursue higher education at the world’s number one institution, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
Discipline, Strategy, and Focus—This Is My Formula for Success: Arnav
JEE Main 2026: All India Rank 05
Father: Dr. Buddhiprakash (Geography Teacher)
Mother: Nidhi Gautam (Government Teacher)
Arnav Gautam, a classroom student at Allen Career Institute, has secured All India Rank 05. A resident of Kota, Arnav has been a regular classroom student at Allen Career Institute, Kota, for the past six years. Prior to this, he had passed his 10th-grade examinations with 95.8 percent marks. Arnav shared that preparing for national and international Olympiads at ALLEN helped strengthen his academic foundation. He participated in the OCSC for the Junior Science Olympiad in 2023, the Astro Olympiad in 2024, and the Physics Olympiad in 2025. Furthermore, he won a Bronze Medal at the Asian Physics Olympiad in 2025. ALLEN Career Institute played a significant role in this success of mine. I believe that while self-study is crucial, the support of coaching is equally essential for receiving the right guidance. When preparing for exams like the JEE, the immediate resolution of doubts is vital—something that is made possible only through the guidance of experienced faculty members. I always kept a clear target in my mind: that I had to achieve this goal. My next objective is to secure a good rank in JEE Advanced and pursue a B.Tech degree in Computer Science at IIT Bombay.

Shubham shared that during his exam preparation, he focused most on rectifying his mistakes; he strengthened his weak topics by practicing them repeatedly. “I engage in self-study for 6 to 8 hours daily. I revise the topics taught in class on the very same day and regularly analyze my preparation level by taking mock tests. I focus on concepts, as having clear concepts makes it easier to solve problems. I handled the pressure of the exam in a positive manner. I always kept my focus on my goal and maintained faith in myself. Currently, my entire focus is on JEE Advanced 2026, as pursuing a B.Tech degree in Computer Science (CS) from IIT Bombay is my dream.”
