Sagar Parmar

While perfectly healthy high scorers in the SSC exams are being celebrated for their feat, there is a whole tribe of those who have aced the exams despite debilitating illnesses. One such is 16-year-old Sagar Parmar who gave his exams with a tumour in his brain. He would head for Tata Memorial Hospital (TMC) for his radiation session after his papers every single day. He studied for six hours after that and brought home an impressive 78.68 per cent.
