I’d like to become a Dakshana scholar and hopefully attend IIT because I am confident that I can get into IIT. I used to live with my uncle who only has a small tea shop. He cannot spend a lot of money on my education. Before I passed the FIIT-JEE admission test, attending IIT was only a dream for me. After getting the first rank in this test and my 10th class performance, I am very confident with this opportunity for IIT-JEE preparation. Now I am sure that I will easily pass the IIT-JEE-09. I want to become an IIT?ian so I need the help of Dakshana foundation because of family?s economic condition. My father is not well. In the past when my father was well, my mother, brother and I lived with my grandparents. After my grandfather died, we moved to live with our uncle. In these circumstances, I am sure that I will score 100% rank and not just simply pass the IIT-JEE. In this way, Dakshana has provided me a very important opportunity to prove myself and to reach a very honorable position in my society. This is why I want to become a Dakshana scholar.
