Identical twins are sure to be used to people mistaking them for each other. With some of them even sporting similar behaviour, it naturally becomes difficult for others to distinguish between the two. While in some cases, although their physical appearances remain the same, they two could be as different as two different individuals. But, Rohan and Rahul Chembakasserill from Mumbai are not just identical twins with similar traits, but they got the same marks in ICSE Class 12 Exam! The duo scored 96.5 percent in the recently declared results. From Jasudben ML School in Mumbai's Khar area both the boys plan to pursue Science for their career.
Talking about the similarities, their mother Sonal Chembakasseril said, "They don't just look exactly the same but have same habits too. They always fall ill together and feel hungry at the same time but scoring exactly the same marks has also took us by surprise. Rohan and Rahul have studied together in school. They even do their revisions together at home."
The results for the Class 12 and Class 10 exams were declared last week by The Council for the Indian School Certificate Examination (CISCE). Girls outshone boys in overall scores with 64 students getting more than 99 percent.
In the Class 12 exam, 49 students got more than 99 percent in the Class 12 exam, while 15 students scored more than 99 percent in the Class 10 exam.
Seven students from across the country scored 99.5 percent in class 12, the second position of 99.25 percent was shared by 17 students. The third highest score was 99 percent, bagged by 25 students. (With inputs from PTI)
