In an exclusive interview to Hueiyen Lanpao at Zenith Academy today, Md Ismat expressed extreme happiness over his success and showed gratitude to almighty Allah for His blessing in securing the coveted top position in the All India Senior Secondary Certificate Examination (AISSCE), 2012 . The topper gave all credits for his grand success to his parents, teachers and well wishers and also thanked S Manaoton, Secretary of the school for his immense support towards achieving his goal.

Md Ismat informed that normally he studied for around 6 hours a day but increased the duration of study to 8-10 hours when the examination approached. Md Ismat said that he plans to graduate in Physics and become an IAS officer in future. However, he also has the desire to become a scientist one day, he hastened add, saying he enjoys reading various science books/magazines.

In his message to the students of Manipur, Md Ismat said that one ought to control his/her desire, direct their action to a specific aim, live simple and think high rather than paying more attention to fashion and luxury items. He also suggested that full focus should be given to their studies.

Father of Md Ismat MV Basirur Rahman, who is a teacher at Lilong Chagaipokpi Lower Primary Madrassa, said he is overwhelmed by his son's achievement. "Ismat's weak health and financial problem in the family acted as obstacles in his study. However, he has defied all odds and came out successful", the proud father added.

"Impossible is not in my mind and I have the strong conviction that everything is possible when a man is determined. And it is this belief which helped me in my examination," a jubilant Ismat told this reporter minutes after the results were declared.

"After passing my Class X examination I thought of studying in some schools in Imphal considered to be among the best ones in Manipur but I could not because of the acute financial difficulties faced by my families," he recalled.

"All was not lost as Sir SM Singh the management secretary of Zenith Academy, Imphal accepted my request to study in the school at the barest fees and with his kind guidance and advice I have come out with flying colors," he said. " I'm planning to study at St Stephens , New Delhi and work hard to top the civil services exams," Ismat , who treats books as his best friends, said.

"My happiness knew no bounds. My son Ismat has done it and I think he would definitely become a leader to guide thousands of poor students to become great personalities," an emotional Bashirur Rahman said.

With his guidance, I have come out with flying colours," Ismat said.

Post the launch of Contin­uous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) system, Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) class 10th results that were declared on Thursday saw many toppers. There are hundreds of students who have scored a perfect 10 in Cumulative Grade Point Average.
“I am pretty sure I will get an A1 in all the subjects, so there is no anxiety as such. Also there is no tension whether I score 95 or 96 per cent,” says Varnika Chawla of Delhi Public School, R K Puram.
Any student who has secured between 91 and 100 in a subject, has an A1 and a grade point of 10. Thereby any student who has scored more than 91 in every subject has a grade point of 10 and hence qualifies to be labelled among CBSE Class 10th toppers.
Scores between 81-90 fetch an A2 grade or 9 points; 71-80, B1 or 8 points; 61-70, B2 or 7 points; 51-60, C1 or 6 points; 41-50, C2 or 5 points and 33-40, D or 4 points. D is the qualifying grade, and those scoring between 21-32 E1 and 20 and below-E2 will be required to improve their performance.
SBOA school has 142 ten-pointers out of 687 students who appeared for Class X exams and DAV Gopalapuram, produced over 100 ten-pointers. Not just these, there are many schools across the nation that have a huge number of ten pointers and it is hard to figure out the actual CBSE Class 10th toppers this time.
