I'd like to become a Dakshana Scholars and hopefully attend IIT because I dreamt from childhood that I will become an IITian. In one way this is my aim. Right from the beginning I wanted to become a successful engineer and serve my country. My parents have a dream that their son becomes a good engineer. I want to convert this dream of theirs into reality. My elder sisters also wish that I get into IIT and take my parents to a better place to live. I wish to fulfill their dreams.
I heard about IIT from my seniors and family members. I had heard about the quality of IIT. Since then I have dreamt of going to IIT and have made this my aim in life. I got to know about the competition for IIT and I want to face it. I am confident that if I receive the right guidance , I will make it to IIt and study in one of the most prestigious colleges of our country.
If I am able to clear the IIT examination and if I am able to get a good job then I would like to help other Dakshana scholars which would encourage them further and the country?s talented students can reach high places.
This is the reason that after becoming a Dakshana scholar, I want to get into IIT.
