I have scored 85% in examination of 10th standard and am awaiting the 12th standard results. I aspire to be a mechanical engineer and I shall be appearing IIT-JEE and AIEEE entrances soon. I might not be too confident about getting a good IIT-JEE rank but I am determined to make it up in AIEEE. I have heard that NIIT University offers NU Scholar Search Programme to those with merit.
