Let us discuss his exceptional JEE journey, the challenges faced, and how the Matrix Academy played a big role in his achievement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1024\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.matrixedu.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-5-1024x473.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8731\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.matrixedu.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-5-1024x473.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.matrixedu.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-5-300x139.png 300w, https:\/\/www.matrixedu.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-5-768x355.png 768w, https:\/\/www.matrixedu.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-5.png 1031w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Background<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rishabh\u2019s target was clear- IIT Bombay.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rishabh\u2019s father works in the Merchant Navy, and his mother is a homemaker. He believes all the credit for his achievements goes to his parents and mentors. His uncle, who is a teacher, played an advisory role by providing encouraging communication during his low times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Challenges Faced<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rishbah joined Matrix JEE Academy in class 11 and chose the Foundation program. His 2-year journey was filled with significant ups and downs. Let us discuss the challenges he faced and also how he overcame them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Low confidence:<\/strong> Rishabh mentioned he struggled with low confidence, and it was hard for him to believe he could achieve a higher rank. After discussing this in personal counseling sessions at Matrix, he was able to shift his perspective. He used to believe that his mock scores were the maximum he could do, but our mentors made him understand that potential is not limited and he can always do better.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Inconsistency and backlogs: <\/strong>Rishabh initially had many backlogs due to the new coaching environment. He believes that backlogs are distressing as things keep piling up if not taken care of at the right time. Further in his journey, he avoided backlogs by maintaining consistency and regularly attending the classes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Time constraint and notes: <\/strong>Another strategy he applied for better time management is using Matrix notes to highlight<strong> <\/strong>crucial points instead of making short notes on his own. This saved him a lot of time.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Social media distraction: <\/strong>He advises students to focus only on coaching materials and the NCERT. Social media distracts students as the JEE content over there is repetitive.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Postponing doubt resolution:<\/strong> Rishabh followed one rule throughout his JEE journey &#8211; clearing doubts immediately on the same day. Matrix doubt counter helped with instant doubt clarification.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ignoring extra assignments from Coaching: <\/strong>One regret Rishabh had during the last days of JEE preparation was not solving the extra assignments provided at Matrix. He initially felt they were not important. After giving the JEE exam, he realised those questions were similar to the JEE paper. Now he advises Matrix students to take all assignments seriously.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Panic during the exam:<\/strong> Rishabh panicked seeing the difficult questions in the JEE Main paper. As per Rishabh\u2019s experience, the JEE paper is unpredictable in nature, and it is normal to panic. Hence, his advice to JEE aspirants is to maintain a calm demeanor and focus on doing their best.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Setting the right priorities:<\/strong> When the JEE Main 2025 results were out, Rishabh was not satisfied with his score. He talked about this with AG sir (Matrix JEE mentor), who helped him set his priorities right. Rishabh realised that JEE Main is just one step towards IIT Bombay, and his focus should be on the next step, which is cracking JEE Advanced.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-75\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.matrixedu.in\/blog\/top-10-jee-coaching-institutes-in-india\/\" style=\"background-color:#127e56\"><strong>Top 10 JEE Coaching Institutes in India<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00a0How Matrix Academy Helped During The Journey?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Matrix provided an organized system, which made it easier to maintain discipline and consistency.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The personalized counselling system at Martrix helped Rishabh realise his potential and set higher goals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rishabh mentions that Matrix improves the quality of study materials and notes every year.

His early test scores were average. This was because Gaurav was not aware of the high peer competition at Matrix. This became a turning point in his journey as he realised he needed to step up to meet this competition level. Let us discuss the challenges he faced and how he overcame them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Health issues:<\/strong> Gaurav fell ill just four days before the JEE Advanced exam. Matrix mentors reminded him of what the 2-year journey taught him. Showing belief in his potential, they encouraged him to maintain composure and resilience and not lose confidence.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Creating balance:<\/strong> To cover the topics he missed due to his illness, MatLab helped.
