Rehaan Kothari

Hi, I am Rehaan Kothari, and my greatest asset is my curious nature! I see the world as a gigantic puzzle waiting to be unraveled. My favorite instruments for experimentation, research, and innovation are physics and mathematics. Being a Cambridge World Topper in Maths, I like learning about how numbers and logic affect the world we live in and economics is interesting to me because it explains how the real world works. Outside of school, I am passionate about sports, such as martial arts, where I have achieved till Black Belt 3, football and cricket. I also enjoy playing the guitar because it provides me with a different rhythm to express my creativity. All projects, whether it is research, innovation or social impact, seem like an adventure to me because I believe that curiosity leads to the creativity.

Community Engagement

As an IBDP student, I have always been actively involved in community service and social initiatives. Serving as the Director of the Rotary Interact Club of Mumbai GenX, I have had the opportunity to lead and contribute to various projects that focus on emotional, psychological, and mental health awareness among youth. Our club regularly organizes sessions and discussions that encourage people to speak openly about mental health and build a supportive community around well-being. Beyond that, we also engage in social awareness and environmental causes, especially during Ganesh Chaturthi, where we promote the idea of eco-friendly celebrations. Instead of immersing idols in the sea, we set up artificial water tanks for visarjan to protect marine life and prevent water pollution. Through these initiatives, I have learned the importance of compassion, teamwork, and sustainable living, realizing that meaningful change begins when awareness is transformed into action.
