JEE Main 2023 Toppers – Nipun Goel and Nikunj Goel

Twin brothers Nipun and Nikunj Goel from Hapur, Uttar Pradesh, scored 100 and 99.99 percentile in the first session of the JEE Main exam, respectively. The brothers supported one another while also engaging in friendly competition.

Nipun says they have helped one another over the last two years. The fact that their plans and preparation methods coincided worked in their favour. Nipun added that whenever one of them got stuck on a subject, they brainstormed and looked for a solution.

The siblings are now aiming to get admission to either IIT Delhi or IIT Bombay’s Computer Science Engineering (CSE) department. They had to travel 35 kilometres, four days a week, to FIITJEE, Meerut, to attend JEE classes.

They urge students to review their daily lessons independently and make time for self-study. It is also crucial to ensure that they properly attempt all class tests, as this will help the aspirants learn how to manage their time.

Nipun and Nikunj love watching the show ‘Shark Tank’ on television.

The UP boys haven’t seen the second season yet because they were too preoccupied with preparing for the JEE Main. Ashneer Grover, their favourite shark, is also absent from the show this season.

In the future, the brothers hope to be featured on the show, pitch their idea for a start-up, and receive funding for it.

Dyanesh Shinde, one of the top 20 candidates scoring 100 percentile in the exam, is from Maharashtra’s Chandrapur district but has relocated to Rajasthan’s Kota. He spent the last five years preparing for the exam in the city. 

Dyanesh, who aspires to join IIT, is pleased to have received a perfect score on his first attempt and will now devote his full attention to JEE – Advanced preparation.

Dyanesh attributes his success to self-study and coaching guidance.

Dyanesh’s mother, Madhavi Shinde, who lives with him in Kota, says Dyanesh has been determined to earn a degree in engineering and was more than willing to relocate for good guidance. 

Dyanesh hopes to study Computer Science or Aerospace Engineering at IIT.

Only five minutes separated the births of the identical twins, whose father, Anil Kumar Sinha, is a school principal. 

Every day, the brothers would study for seven to eight hours. The Bihar boys are overjoyed with the results and hope to gain admission to IIT and pursue computer science engineering.

Their father says that, even as little boys, his two sons had remarkable diligence and work ethic. Furthermore, they share the same tastes in both food and clothing. Chilli Paneer and Chilli Chicken, for instance, are two dishes that make them drool.

Harshul Sanjaybhai Suthar of Ahmedabad hopes to follow in his elder brother’s footsteps and pursue computer science engineering after he aces the JEE Advanced in 2023. Harshul is one of 20 students who secured 100 percentile in the exam.

Sanjaybhai Suthar, Harshul’s father, is a civil engineer, and his mother is a homemaker. His elder brother is studying B.Tech. in Computer Science at NIRMA University.

The Ahmedabad boy says his interest in math and computers prompted him to prepare for the JEE exams. As he analysed his brother’s B.Tech. curriculum, the decision solidified. By Class 12, he was set on pursuing a B.Tech. in Computer Science from IIT Bombay.

The topper claims to have put in between eight and ten hours of study time per day in order to ace JEE Main. 

He relied heavily on the available coaching material, test papers, and NCERT books to get ready for the exam. Harshul adds that when it comes to preparing for chemistry exams, NCERT books are the best for conceptual understanding.
