Yatharth is now preparing for the JEE Advanced exam as he hopes to get into a college of his choice. “I want to study computer science at IIT Bombay,” he said. “I didn’t expect to get such a high score and be the outside India topper. I was expecting a good score but honestly, I hadn’t expected it to be this good. The result has exceeded my expectations.” “Now I am focusing on preparing for the JEE Advanced.

My first choice of college would be the IITs in India. If I am able to get a good rank, I would love to study at the college that I’ve been aiming for a long time,” added the IHS Oud Mehta student. The JEE exams are conducted in two parts – JEE Mains and JEE Advanced. This year over 1.2 million students appeared for the NTA JEE Mains 2024 exam.
