Identical twins from Noida score perfectly identical marks in CBSE class 12 exams

The twins not only look identical but seem to possess identical intellect.

Manasi Singh and her twin sister Manavi, residents of Uttar Pradesh's Hathras district, who look alike, will henceforth, also share another unique thing in their lives.

The sisters, who had appeared for class 12 examination of the CBSE Board, have secured identical marks surprising not only their teachers and family members but also the residents of Hathras town.

Both sisters, who were students of a private school at Greater Noida, scored 95.8 per cent marks. What made their results more surprising was that they secured equal marks in all the five papers-English, Physics, Chemistry, Computer Science and Physical Education.

CBSE class 12 results were declared on Monday.

The twins said that they did not expect to score equal marks, though they studied together. ''We did study together but we did not expect to get identical marks in all the papers,'' said Manasi.

The sisters also have similar interests in many other aspects of life. For instance, both liked badminton and both of them want to become engineers.

According to their teachers, there was a difference of only one per cent in their marks in the class 10 examination. In their internal examinations, conducted by their school, also they often secured identical marks.

Earlier also, there have been instances of twins securing identical marks at board examinations in different parts of the country.
