Summary:

“In 2017, city topper Purva Garg had scored AIR 96 and second rank among girls in IIT JEE results. Meerut: City students once again shined as the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) announced the results for the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Advanced on Sunday.Meerut boy Akshaj Bansal emerged topper from the city by scoring all India rank (AIR) 164. During my school days, I studied more for IIT and prepared for Class XII boards only when the exams were approaching. He was closely followed by another Meerut boy, Deepankur Kansal, who scored AIR 167 after dropping a year.While Bansal scored 263 of 360 in his first attempt, Kansal cracked the exam by scoring 262 marks.Bansal also topped his school by scoring 98.6% in CBSE boards. Having said that, difference between rank 96 and 164 comes down to only two wrong questions..
