JEE Main and Advanced syllabus
Getting into a top tier engineering college in India is very difficult. Every year, only a handful of students among the lakhs of aspirants are actually able to get admission into these colleges. Although this can be disheartening to every student to not be able to get an admission after all that hard work, it is not the end of your career and you should never think that getting into an IIT is the only way to be successful in life. It’s true that getting into an IIT or the topmost NITs gives you an edge over other students, as you have the privilege of better facilities and infrastructure, but you can do equally well in a 2nd or 3rd tier college if you are determined.
Satya Nadella never went to an IIT, yet he is the CEO of Microsoft Corporation and hundreds of IIT graduates work under him, and he is not the only example. There are several other people like him. So getting an IIT tag is not what makes a person successful, but how you utilize and spend those four years that are provided to you definitely do.
