Asharam Choudhary completed his initial days of education in a government school in his village. Asharam later got admission into Navodya Vidyalaya. After completing his higher education he had enrolled with the Dakshina Foundation with Bundela's help. He then simultaneously prepared for the AIIMS exam while studying for his class +2 exams. Asharam scored 707, All India rank and 141 rank in the OBC category. Asharam even secured 2,763 All India rank in the National Eligibility Entrance Test (NEET).
Asharam's aspired to become a doctor ever since he was just 10 years old. He recalls that when he was studying in class 5, he visited a ‘Jhola chaap’ (an unqualified practitioner) with his father. The doctor prescribed a couple of medicines and earned Rs 50 in no time. He so far had seen his father work hard all day long just to earn that Rs 50 a day. It is then when he decided he wanted to be a doctor and fight away the hardships of his families. Atrue example of Rags to Riches.
