"Being a lawyer has always been my ambition as a child. Thus, I put all my strength in the preparation of CLAT," says Saumya while talking to Education Times.

"Law is a very interesting subject since it has the power to cause social changes. Also, as a lawyer one gets to connect with the society; hence I chose Humanities in class XI to improve my knowledge and understanding of social sciences," says Saumya, who wants to become a judge.
