I'd like to become a Dakshana Scholar and hopefully attend IIT because myself ?Shrikant Gaikwad? belong to a poor family. From my childhood itself, I have faced many financial problems in the way of my education. Being a poor boy, I did not receive good quality education. Due to the poverty I could not afford to join a private school. My education was going on this way. Then I cam to know about a golden opportunity of Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalalaya. By studing hard, I got into the screening test of this school and got ed. That was the turning point of my education life. Now when I was in the 10th grade, I came to know about the Dakshana?s IIT-JEE coaching. I now found another golden chance. From then onwards my ambitions rose higher. I was now determined to get into the ?AIR-30? students getting into IIT-JEE. The students clearing the IIT examination have a different standard of living and have a different kind of respect in the society. My wish to become an IITian became more determined and I got too much motivated through this Dakshana Scheme. The teaching given at these centres is also of top-quality.

Being a middle-class poor boy and having lack of education, I never dreamt about getting into IIT and cracking this exam. But from now onwards I have the determination in my mind that I can do it by hard work and lot of motivation.

Thank You!
