IIT craze touched peak Nagpur got its first JEE Mains India topper

nagpur-jee-main-toppers

The year 2013 has significantly savored the joy of engineering entrance exams  in Nagpur, if the results of JEE Mains and Advance – the newly introduced gateways to engineering institutes and Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) – is anything to go by. Nagpur students ran past their previous performances to set new records in both engineering and medical entrance examinations. As the aspiring students performed exceptionally well in JEE Mains, the next level JEE Advanced – gateway to crack IIT also saw record number of students hitting the target. This year, the city came up with its first ever All India Topper in JEE Mains Chandra Malu who is also Maharashtra topper in JEE Advanced. The aspirants also showed their sheer dedication towards the entrance examinations.
However this extra ordinary inclination towards IIT frenzy took a toll on school going habit of the students who skipped classes to be with coaching institutes. Some coaching institutes somehow managed to get the tie up with the schools which facilitated the classrooms at the disposal of coaching institutes.
Over all, the scenario of coaching institutes has improved in 2013. The institutes offered coaching packages in the most professional way ever and yet delivered on its commitment too. For instance, IIT Home – the city’s prestigious coaching institute mastered the art with the highest number of qualifying students coming from their institute. However other institutes like ICAD and Resonance too performed relatively well in their all India performances.
Nisha Kothari, Managing Director of IIT Home said this year has been remarkable both for Nagpur and IIT Home as it was for the first time that student from the city made to the top in JEE Mains exam. Chandra Malu undertook his coaching at IIT-Home and went on to achieve all India number one position in JEE Mains and topped state list in JEE Advanced. “Out of the 400 students qualifying for JEE Advanced, 366 belonged to IIT-Home. And even record 111 students from IIT Home managed to crack JEE Advanced. So this year we have managed to achieve significant feat and brought the city pride,” Kothari added.
Sarang Upganlawar, Director, ICAD said, “We have been running our institute in Nagpur since 2004 and all through these years we have observed a whale of change in the students’ approach towards these competitive examinations. From 2004 to 2013, there has been a tremendous shift in the preparation methodologies. This year the students appeared for the examinations in the most professional way. And the parents turned out equally committed. We at our Tilak Nagar branch have the students coming from various directions of Nagpur to seek perfection in their performance. 2013 noticeably marked the beginning of never before study culture in the city. And this year students from ICAD had fetched exceptionally brilliant results in these entrance examinations.”
Bansal Classes from Kota was the new entrant this year in the IIT coaching bandwagon in Nagpur.  Though it contributed somehow to the number of successful students, the institute has lot more to achieve to set its root deep in the city.
Resonance, another coaching institute from Kota though boasted of their All India rankings, the figures that came lacked clarity and it only added to the confusion over the number of city students making cut in JEE mains and advanced examinations.

Kota Topper Story: Shitikanth IIT JEE 2008 Topper

Image
I gave JEE in 2009 and used to hear about this "topper" guy from the 2nd floor of my hostel. Topper of A1. I didn't pay too much attention. Then one day after my dinner my friends asked me if I noticed who was sitting next to me during the meal. I said no. They said it was the same guy. I didn't care much there either. I saw him for the first time in a cricket field. The lean stick-figure boy who didn't speak much. He had a ball in his hand and a single electric pole was being used as the wicket. I was fielding. I saw him bowl and all my senses absorbed after that was the clattering sound of the ball on the pole. That's when I was introduced Sitikanth. And the stories began! Once during class, V K Bansal (THE BANSAL of Bansal Classes) told us a story of when 2 weeks before JEE Sitikanth came to him, dejected and confused. Saying he had nothing to do. Bansal Sir gave him the toughest integration problems he had, thinking this should be enough to keep him a

The Most Brilliant Students of Kota Ever

Anuj Nagpal(AIR 190):  This guy was the most intelligent person I ever met. In hostel, he was one of the most fun loving guys, he only used to do the assignments of mathematics (only because it was taught to us by the director of the coaching). Though I was not in his hostel but my closest friends were in his hostel and used to tell me all the stuff they did at night. Late night chats, discussion about random things (which had no relation with JEE at all). There was a time when all feared Nagpal and used to say "Nagpal is gonna come and he is going to spoil our full night." That guy was much different from all other people I have ever met.  He got an AIR 190 only because we weren't taught inorganic chemistry, else he would have got much better rank than this.  He is AIR190 in JEEAdv 2014, AIR190(State rank 2) in JEEMain 2014, BITSAT score-398, CBSE 12th %- 97.6. Rajdeep(AIR 1700 in first attempt, AIR 1200 in second attempt):  This was the coolest guy I ever met, studie

How much You can get by Selling your IIT JEE RANK ??

Shubham Tulsiani says This is quite a common practice among institutes so I would like to address the trends too apart from the personal experiences and I'll also write on one aspect the question didn't explicitly ask  - offers  before  JEE Pre-JEE (class 12th) I had a couple of 'offers' - Some people from Akash Institute came over to my place to 'gift' me books to help me prepare for JEE. All I had to do was - guess what - yes, sign a form ! I was amazed at how insistent they were and despite me saying I didnt need the books and wouldn't sign,  they made me keep the books. They then visited / called me about 5 more times to get my signature (until I finally returned the unused books on their last visit and told my hostel guard to not allow them back). I later learnt that they had been giving these 'gifts' to some of my (well performing) batchmates in Bansal Classes too and unfortunately a lot of them had signed up too. I was also on
