academics

I did my schooling in Audarsha Vidyalaya, in Tirupati from 1987 to 1997. The one good thing I learnt in this school is to be punctual.

Then I moved to Sri Vidyaranya Junior College, one of the famous colleges in Tirupati. Here is where I developed my basic skills in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. I was motivated by many a intelligent people to actively participate in education.

Among one Lakh students I secured 156th rank in EAMCET, an entrance examination held jointly for engineering and medical programmes.

Unable to stay away from home, I have decided to study in Sri Venkateswara University which is one of the good universities in Andhra Pradesh in the department of Computer science. I was attracted by Algorithms, Data structures, Database systems and finally in Distributed Systems when I finished my final year project. I was attracted very much by the teaching style of two of the professors K.V. Madhumurthy, and M.M.naidu which attracted me towards teaching. They were real gems in their fields.

Then I got 99.15 percentile in GATE score with little hard work(I dont know how). One of my friends got into IISc Bangalore to hoist the flag of our university. I got direct admission at IIT Guwahati. I got selected for the M.tech Sponsored program in IIT Madras which was sponsored by Texas Instruments, for a course in digital signal processing. I also got selected in BARC. I believe only GATE Score has got me all these things. Nothing fascinated me except IITB . Atlast I made it into KReSIT where I always wanted to be in.( Actually, I did not know about KReSIT until I applied for it.)

My cumulative performance at the end of second semester is 8.35.

And recently, I got placed in Veritas. I will be joining Veritas in August 2005.
