Satyam Kumar, the 12 year boy from Bihar who made national Headlines after cracking IIT JEE 2012 has also become youngest to pass Class 12 Examination. He passed the Class 12 Examination of Central Board of Secondar Education (AISSCE 2012) with 85 percent Marks.
Satyam, a resident of Bakhorapur village in Bhojpur district, cleared IIT-JEE from the Mumbai zone with an all-India rank of 8,137. He has been the youngest yet to crack what is considered to be the toughest qualifying exam in the country.
Satyam is currently studying in Rajasthan’s Kota town, well-known for its IIT-JEE coaching centres. He stays with his younger brother and uncle. Satyam had also done his Class 10 from Modern School in Kota.
“We are happy and celebrating his rare success. After all, it is a matter of pride for the family, village and the state,” Satyam’s uncle Rampukar Singh told IANS over telephone.
Singh said, “CBSE officials informed us that Satyam is the youngest to clear Class 12. The entire village is upbeat because he has become a role model for others.”
The village celebrated his success by bursting firecrackers and consuming sweets when he cracked IIT-JEE May 18.
Satyam is busy preparing for next year’s IIT-JEE. After cracking IIT-JEE this year, he made it clear that he would not join IIT because of his poor rank. He will attempt next year for a better rank.
Kumar’s father, Sidhnath Singh, a farmer, is proud of him.
He said his son was intelligent since early childhood.
