From Failure to AIR 55: Anshu Kumar Shares How NPrep’s Video Lectures Became His Turning Point

Anshu shares How He Used NPrep's Video Lectures to Secure DSSSB (AIR 55)

✨ Anshu Shares How He Used NPrep's Video Lectures to Secure DSSSB (AIR 55)

He was told he would never walk.
He failed a major exam.
This is the story of how Anshu Kumar defied all odds and used a powerful, structured learning strategy to clear 9+ nursing exams.


🌟 A Story Beyond Ranks

Some success stories are not just about achieving a top rank; they are about conquering the impossible.
Anshu Kumar’s journey is one such story.

Born with a condition that affected both his legs, he was told by doctors he might never walk.
Today, he stands tall as the first government officer in his family, having secured AIR 55 in DSSSB and cleared over eight other competitive exams.

But his path was far from easy. It was marked by a significant failure that forced him to rethink his entire preparation strategy. His comeback story holds a powerful lesson for every nursing aspirant, especially on how to use video lectures to build an unshakable foundation.


🚧 The Initial Mistake: A Trap Many Students Fall Into

After graduating in 2019, Anshu began his preparation. Like many students, he was drawn to the vast world of free content available online. However, this unstructured approach led to a major setback.

"Meri sabse badi galti thi ki main shuru mein aate hi YouTube par chala gaya, jabki pehle theory strong karni chahiye thi. Is wajah se bohot negative marks aaye."
(Translation: "My biggest mistake was that I immediately went to YouTube, whereas I should have strengthened my theory first. This led to a lot of negative marks.")

In 2023, he failed the NORCET exam. The random videos and scattered information had left his conceptual foundation weak, resulting in costly negative marks.

👉 This failure became his ultimate turning point.


🔑 The Turning Point: The Power of Structured Video Lectures

Disheartened but not defeated, Anshu decided to change his method completely.
He joined NPrep and adopted a disciplined strategy centered around video lectures.

This is where his transformation began. His new formula for success was simple but profound:

  1. Watch the Video Lecture First → Build a deep, crystal-clear understanding of the topic.
  2. Immediate Application → Practice MCQs from NPrep’s Question Bank on that specific topic.
  3. Deep Analysis → Study the rationale for every single option, especially for wrong answers.

"Maine NPrep se theory padhna shuru kiya aur phir uske question bank se practice karta tha. Har galat question ke rationale ko a se z tak padhta tha."
(Translation: "I started studying theory from NPrep and then practiced from its question bank. I would read the rationale of every wrong question from A to Z.")

✅ This systematic approach of "Learn → Apply → Analyze" using NPrep's Video Lectures + Q-Bank became his winning strategy.


⚡ How NPrep's Rapid Revision Course Fueled His Success

Anshu specifically used NPrep's Rapid Revision Course. This course was the perfect tool for his comeback because it provided a comprehensive, high-yield summary of the syllabus in a short time.

  • 📘 Quality Content → High-quality notes from educators like Himmat Sir.
  • 📝 Integrated Practice → Mock tests, PYQs, and daily tests.
  • 🎯 Structured Learning → Video lectures gave the strong foundation he lacked earlier.

🧑‍🏫 Why Structured Lectures Work Better Than Random Videos

"Anshu's story perfectly illustrates the core pedagogical principle our video lectures are built on: Concept First, Application Second.

Our lectures are intentionally designed not just to state facts, but to build a story around a concept, making it intuitive and easier to remember."

👉 Example: When a student watches a lecture on Myocardial Infarction, they don’t just learn symptoms. They understand pathophysiology deeply, which helps them logically deduce priority nursing actions.

This is why Anshu’s shift from random YouTube videos to structured lectures had such a dramatic impact on reducing his negative marks.


🏆 The Victory: A Dream Realized, A Bigger Goal Set

This disciplined approach powered by video lectures quickly yielded results.

  • ✅ First, he cleared the Rajasthan CHO exam, becoming the first government officer in his family.
  • 🚀 He then cleared a series of 9–10 exams.
  • 🌟 Culminating in his massive achievement of AIR 55 in DSSSB.

Anshu’s journey teaches us that the right resources + right strategy = success.

His advice to aspirants is clear:

"CHO abhi mera chhota sapna poora hua hai. Mera asli target toh NORCET clear karke AIIMS mein jaana hai. Exam se daro mat, balki aisi strategy banao ki exam aapse dare."
(Translation: "CHO is a small dream fulfilled. My real target is to clear NORCET and go to AIIMS. Don’t fear the exam—make a strategy that makes the exam fear you.")
