TNI Bureau: While the media widely covered Soyeb Aftab from Odisha who scored a full 100% in the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) 2020 – a perfect 720, Akanksha was forgotten in the process.
Akanksha Singh too scored a perfect 720 – same feat achieved by Soyeb. However, she lost the top rank to Soyeb due to her younger age – a factor taken into account in the National Testing Agency’s tie-breaking policy.
