Student of FIITJEE coaching, Utkarsh who takes inspiration from his father — a qualified engineer himself — told The Indian Express that he “obviously like computers. But the interest began with mathematics and physics.”
Talking about his MHT-CET result, Utkarsh said, “When I appeared for CET, there was no clarity on whether I will qualify for IIT seat. I gave my 100 per cent in order to get admission to a good engineering college, if not IIT. I am glad knowing the score, but my path is different now.”
Utkarsh expressed that lockdown did not allow him to meet friends but “it helped save a lot of time spent on the commute to educational institutions.”
When not studying, watching videos on YouTube and making paper planes helped de-stress while studying as he believes quality is more important than the quantity of time spent studying.
This year, in the PCM group, a total 13 students have scored 100 percentile and 14 candidates have earned the perfect score in the PCB group.
