Success stories always have a common starting point in dreams. However, the actual success can only be achieved with proper planning, hard work, and the right environment. A student of B.Sc (Hons.) Physics from Chandigarh University, Mr Sarvesh Gupta, has made headlines for achieving the coveted All India Rank 1 in IIT JAM 2026 (Physics).

While Sarvesh's accomplishment is nothing short of outstanding, it is important to note that it came after rigorous preparation and a conducive learning environment. As part of his interaction, Sarvesh discusses how he evolved from a budding student passionate about physics to a national topper.

Sarvesh credits his success to the quality teaching at Chandigarh University, which emphasises understanding concepts, research, and practical knowledge. The presence of qualified teachers, state-of-the-art labs, and competitions provided him with the perfect atmosphere to develop and refine his problem-solving skills.

For Sarvesh, mentorship and academic coaching played an essential role in his success. Through regular evaluation, doubt-clearing sessions, and a curriculum tailored for national-level entrance examinations like IIT JAM, he could ensure proper preparation for the test.

As an NAAC A+ accredited institution, Chandigarh University is renowned for its high-quality educational experience, industry-aligned programs, and robust research culture. The university has been instrumental in enabling its students to rank highly, find global placements, and pursue further studies at some of the best universities in the world.

After securing the rank, Sarvesh will commence his Integrated PhD program in theoretical physics at TIFR, Mumbai, one of India's premier research institutes.

The achievements of students like Sarvesh are not only a testament to their hard work and determination but also to the institution that fosters such talent. They motivate other students to strive for greatness and aim for the highest ranks and research institutions.

Thus, Sarvesh Gupta's extraordinary success story shows us what is possible when we work hard, believe in ourselves, and receive the appropriate guidance.
