PRASHANT ARYA

I am Prashant Arya, a student of XII standard (Year-2012)studying at Resonance. Last year I participated in the KVPYfellowship examination and cleared both its stages, written as well as personal interv iew successfully. The entire process

was a great learning experience for me.

The written examination helped me brush up all my basics as it focused more on the concepts than on tough and lengthy

calculations. After getting selected for the next stage, I was actually nervous for the interview, mainly because of face to face

interaction. But I have to say, the panel of examiners made it a really fruitful and fun experience. They were very polite and

informal, asked me about my areas of interest and questioned me accordingly. I was given sufficient time and encouragement

to explain my answers. There were challenging questions too but they were more interested in the approach than the final

answer. They even asked me about my future goals and gave me valuable advice regarding the same.

After this process, I have gained a lot of self confidence and my knowledge and presentation skills have certainly grown.

I also want to thank the KVPY authorities for being very cooperative when I requested them for a change in my interview

venue due to some reasons and they managed it.

I feel obliged that I was a part of this process which has boosted my determination and my desire to keep learning.

PALAK JAIN

Id say the interview was easy goingnothing to be tense about. It is more of a cordial discussion. We

werent asked very probing questions or high level subject based questionsjust the basics.

I want to share my views about facing the interview .

For performing well at the interview:

1. Select the subject at which you are best as your favourite subject.

2. Study the topics which are a part of your syllabus . But study them deeply.

3. While preparing for the interview :

Maths : See to it that you have learnt the proofs of many formulae but not just mugged up. As many of

the questions they ask are proofs of some difficult formulae but not solving the problems.
