Explanation

For an aspirational goal like topping the class, both 'hopes' and 'believes' are contextually appropriate. 'Selvi hopes she will top the class' expresses desire for the outcome. 'Selvi believes she will top the class' expresses confidence in achieving it. In competitive academic contexts, students often use both interchangeably when expressing their aspirations and confidence.
