One aspect that has worked for JEE Advanced 2023 All India Rank 1 Vavilala Chidvilas Reddy was his ‘consistency’. “I maintained a consistent study routine, dedicating regular hours to learning and revision,” said Vavilala. The son of government school teachers, Vavilala now aims to get admission into IIT Bombay. He wants to pursue BTech in Computer Science Engineering.
A native of Hyderabad, he started his JEE Advanced preparation journey in class 11th. He said that starting early helped him to lay the foundation for the exam by strengthening his understanding of fundamental concepts in physics, chemistry, and mathematics. “This early start allowed me to gradually build my knowledge and skills over time,” said Vavilala.
He bagged AIR 15 in the JEE Main 2023. He scored 341 marks out of 360 or 94.74 percentile in the exam. Further, he earned a spot in the INMO First Level Olympiad selections. He completed his class 12th from CBSE. He achieved a perfect 10/10 GPA in class 10 and 987/1000 in his class 12 exams.
In an exclusive interview with News18.com, the top rank holder emphasised understanding concepts deeply rather than merely memorising them and said this approach helped him to tackle complex problems and apply his knowledge effectively during the JEE Advanced. He advises future JEE aspirants to focus on building a strong conceptual foundation in all subjects.

“Regular and consistent practice is key to improving problem-solving skills. Seeking guidance from mentors for clarification or concepts, maintaining a positive mindset, staying motivated, and managing time effectively is crucial for success,” he said.
Vavilal Chidvilas said that his preparation strategy for JEE Advanced revolved around three key elements — comprehensive understanding, practice, and self-discipline. To get acquainted with examination patterns he solved a wide variety of problems from different sources, including previous years’ papers and mock tests, to enhance his problem-solving skills.
A student of Infinity Learn By Sri Chaitanya, he said the last two months before the examination were ‘critical’ as he tried to consolidate his knowledge and refine exam-taking strategies. “During this period, I focused on revising all the subjects comprehensively, solving numerous practice papers, and analyzing my performance to identify areas for improvement. Mock tests and simulations helped me simulate the exam environment and build my confidence. The focused preparation during these months helped me enhance my speed, accuracy, and overall performance in the actual examination” said the JEE Advanced 2023 topper.
The top rank holder scanned the entire question paper to get an overview of the sections and questions. Then, he opted to start with the section that he felt most comfortable with and confident in. “This approach allowed me to maximise my efficiency and build momentum as I began solving the paper,” said Reddy. For his last-minute preparations, he went through important formulas, concepts, and key points and engaged in activities that helped him feel relaxed.
