The recent announcement of the JEE Mains 2024 session 2 results brought happiness to many households.?However, the idea that engineering is mostly dominated by men was reinforced by the fact that out of the 56 candidates who scored a perfect 100 NTA score this year, only two were female - Sanvi Jain from Karnataka?and Shayna Sinha from Delhi.
Sanvi Jain, who secured the 34th rank, is one of the two female toppers.?
In an interview with JEE Nexus by Unacademy, she discussed the challenges she encountered during her preparation for the exams. Jain opened up about the difficulties she faced while getting ready for the tests.
She said, "I had both ups and downs. Sometimes, I would not score well; then, I would have to see where I was going wrong in my concepts. Sometimes, I faced hardships while studying organic chemistry as it required me to memorise a lot. I did face some challenges, but I succeeded."
The JEE (Main) exam is conducted for admissions to various engineering courses, including the National Institutes of Technology (NITs), Indian Institutes of Information Technology (IIIT), and other centrally funded technical colleges.?
It serves as a prerequisite for the JEE (Advanced), for which registration will begin on Sunday. Only applicants who meet the NTA's cut-off for the JEE (Advanced) exam based on their JEE (Main) performance are eligible to appear for it.
