Nimish Dwarkanath,
a final-year student
of BSc at Yuvaraja
College here, is on
top of the world. He
stood 11th among
the 8,000-odd
students who wrote
the IIT-Joint
Admission Test (JAM)
for physics.
The strenuous
examination is held for
admission to Master of
Science (MS) courses in
physics, mathematics,
chemistry and
computer science at the
prestigious Indian
Institutes of
Technology (IITs) and
the IISc. There are just
about 200 MS seats in
physics at all IITs and
IISc.
Nimish, son of
Dwarkanath and
Renuka S, is yet to
finish the BSc
examination. “I can’t
explain how it feels to
have secured the 11th
rank,” an amazed
Nimish said.
The boy said that he
had made up his mind
to take JAM
immediately after
enrolling in BSc. But
earnest preparations
began only after he
passed second year.
Nimish fully realised the
importance of the exam
and thus, began a
dedicated effort which
finally bore fruit.
The Department of
Physics, IIT, Kanpur,
has confirmed him an
MS seat. Nimish said
that his physics and
chemistry teachers at
the college guided him
for the test.
