UP Board Topper Prachi Nigam Score: Once Trolled For Looks, Former UP 10th Topper Gets 91.2% in Class 12

Two years ago, Prachi Nigam, a student from Uttar Pradesh’s Sitapur district experienced one of the biggest achievements of her life when she topped the UP board exams for class 10. But her happy day soon turned into mental harassment as people started trolling her for looks. Prachi stayed strong and ignored the trolls, and has now once again achieved another brilliant score. The student from UP has now scored 91.20 per cent in her Class 12 board exams.

Prachi has achieved an impressive score of 99 in Mathematics, 96 in Hindi, 95 in Chemistry, and 93 in Physics. The only subject where she did not score above 90 is English, in which she scored 73. The former class 10 topper and now a class 12 graduate has told local media that her goal and focus in on cracking JEE, due to which she wasn't able to achieve above 90 in English.

Nigam had made headlines in 2024 for topping the UP class 10 exams with a score of 591/600. While many mocked her for her facial hair, Prachi did not give up. She had revealed back them that she wants to become an engineer and thus wants to study at an IIT after class 12. Prachi has since then being studying to achieve her goal, and has now scored a brilliant 91.20 per cent.

"When the UP results were announced, my picture went viral; many people trolled me. At the same time, there were those who supported me. I want to thank everyone," she told local media. "However, God has made me, I am okay with it. For those who feel there is a difference, it doesn't matter. Even Chanakya was trolled, and he did not care. Similarly, I also don't care and will focus on my studies"

Back in 2024, Prachi was affected by the trolls and had even, for a moment, wished that she didn't top the UP board exams. "If I had a few fewer marks, I would not have topped and got famous. Maybe that would have been better. I don't care much about the situation because I have been facing this for a long time. People see girls with hair and feel weird about it because they have not seen this before," she had said in an interview with BBC.
