I know it’s a very clickbait title but this is something that I have been asked multiple times. Why would I choose a startup over working in one of the most prestigious companies in the world? The answer to choosing a company isn’t simple if you are in the tech world for passion and not just for money. I will try to cover what my reasons were, what was working right and what wasn’t in this blog which might help others in a similar position to make a more judicious decision. ...

I personally don’t have any materialistic wants apart from my skin care routine, but there is just one thing that I look forward to the most i.e. exploring new places.

I think people these days are more willing to give up and accept circumstances as fate without treading away from the path they are walking on and just trudging along it for eternity. But you know what is one of the most beautiful thing in today’s world? A person willing to fight against the circumstances for something they believe in, for something that won’t let them sleep through night silently, for something that makes them dream in day light. ...

While New Year wasn’t a reason for me to go on a trip but it was more on the side that I visit North Sparsely these days so this served two purposes: I can meet my beloved friends of the North Visit the Himalayas which gave me a new direction and spine restrictions in life.

Competition happens at the bottom. People at top are collaborating. I read these words on Ravi’s status and immediately it hit me as something I have tried to pursue since my very first month in college. Collaboration has been a key factor in my overall mental well being aka happiness throughout my career and overall life advancement. Enough with Competition After going through 3 years of JEE coaching and having participated/succeeding in about all of the competitive exams including IJSO, RMO, KVPY, IChO, and JEE Advanced, I decided to put my foot down on competing. ...

It was time to return back to campus after partially recovering from the tragic happenings of 09/26/2022. Detouring from Marudhar My dad came to drop me over for registration in December. We took the infamous Marudhar Express from Jaipur to Varanasi Junction in 2AC oblivious of what was about to unfold. The compartment was shaking too much for some reason I couldn’t even sleep and my neck started hurting badly. It was just so painful that Papa and I decided to just drop at Agra Cantt Railway Station only. First thing, I vomitted then we took a cab to some hotel, I ate something and again vomitted so slept on empty stomach. ...

End of an Era I was a student at FIITJEE Jaipur since class 10th for 3 years. I devoted myself to one goal cracking JEE so that I could work on computers. I was fascinated by Excel, operating systems, browser scripts, video games and more. I was able to clear many competitive exams throughout the journey but let’s begin with the day of JEE Advanced.

I went for paper 1, took a good nap in the car under the shade of a nearby tree during break and then gave my paper 2. ...

Why we need our Campus? Do you remember? Do you remember waking up early feeling that morning 🌅 breeze🍃 on your way to the examination centre where you probably gave the most crucial examination of your life? Making through those two years of constant efforts, strenuous days, full of ups and downs. All that for what a subscription to online classes? Do you think the admins are aware of what struggles we went through to make it into the prestigious institution📜 named IITs? I am aware you all have heard this multiple times, and yes, you all agree, so why hasn’t anything changed yet? It is probably because we have lost hope facing numerous denials for our request from the Mussolinis and Hitlers of our institution. ...
