He achieved an All India Rank of 2,273 out of 1.80 lakh candidates who appeared in IIT JEE Advanced 2024. It may be noted that 14 lakh aspirants appeared JEE Main 2024.
Kartik had earlier scored 99.92 percentile in JEE Main 2024 for which the cut-off was 93 percentile marks for the general category students. He was ranked 1,315 in All India Ranks as per JEE Main 2024.
Earlier, he scored 91.2% marks in CBSE’s Class XII exams this year from Sant Gyaneshwar School, Delhi. Earlier, he achieved 95.2% marks in class X from Hope Academy in 2022.
He aspires to get admitted into IIT Mumbai, one of the most prestigious institutes of the country.
It’s a dream come true not only for him but also for the entire Jain community and all the well-wishers. Kartik claimed that his mother Khushbu Patni was an inspiration and motivated him to give his best in the JEE Main.
