JEE Advanced 2025: Jalgaon resident Maijd Husain secures AIR 3, says focus and self-confidence key to success
Majid Mujahid Husain, a resident of Jalgaon and studied at Burhanpur, secured third rank in the JEE Advanced 2025, result of which announced on Monday morning.
Majid along with his twin brother Sajid prepared for the exam by taking admission in a school in Burhanpur to avoid undue pressure and hustle bustle of the big cities. He secured 97%marks in class 12. His brother Sajid has also been selected and secured 1600 rank in the exam.
On his success, Majid said, 'I studied here in Burhanpur as I wanted to avoid unnecessary mental stress. A big city and coaching might have given exposure to students but it has no role in deep understanding of concept. I am glad that my teachers and family helped me in studies and supported mentally a lot.'
'I used to study 12-14 hours a day and concentrated more on understanding the concepts. After success in Mains, I spent 10-12 hours for revision. I was expecting good rank in the JEE Advanced," he said by adding that Focus and self confidence is a key for success.
Husain's father Mujahid, who is a professor in Jalgaon University, said, 'I am happy that my son made us proud today. He was an intelligent boy since childhood and won many olympiads in the school.'

Girl from tribal community in Kalvarayan Hills earns her seat in IIT
In a remote village tucked away in the Kalvarayan Hills, where dreams often struggle to take flight, 17-year-old A. Rajeshwari has carved out an extraordinary path. A student of the Government Tribal Residential Higher Secondary School in Karumandurai in Salem district, she has cleared the JEE (Advanced) 2025, an achievement that would earn her a seat in one of the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs). She is the first student from a government tribal residential school under the administration of the Adi Dravidar and Tribal Welfare Department to secure admission to an IIT. Hailing from the Malayali tribal community, Ms Rajeshwari lost her father, Aundi, a tailor, to cancer a year-and-a-half ago. Since then, her mother, Kavitha, has been supporting their family of five by working as a daily-wage agricultural labourer. Despite the odds, Ms. Rajeshwari scored an impressive 521 out of 600 in her Class XII exam and went on to secure an All India Rank of 417 in the Scheduled Tribe category in the competitive exam. According to her, this feat was made possible because of her teachers and the focused coaching programme launched by the department. The initiative, which began for selected students at the end of Class XI, brought in expert teachers and subject specialists from Chennai to conduct daily online coaching sessions. 'They took classes in the mornings and evenings, and were always available to clarify students' question,' said D. Vijayan, the headmaster of Ms. Rajeshwari's school. Speaking to The Hindu over phone from the Government Tribal Residential School in Kumizhi, near Chengalpattu, where she is undergoing a training programme on soft skills, Ms. Rajeshwari, who studied in Tamil medium up to Class XII, expressed happiness over her achievement. 'JEE Mains was in Tamil, so I found it easier. But JEE Advanced was in English, and that made it more difficult,' she said. After her Class XII Board Exam, Ms. Rajeshwari was sent to a special training programme in Perundurai in Erode district to intensify her preparation for JEE Advanced. 'With the guidance of teachers and motivation from fellow students, I cleared the exam. Hopefully, I will get into IIT Madras or IIT Bombay. I want to pursue Aerospace Engineering,' she said, adding: 'Students from Tamil medium can overcome challenges and crack exams such as JEE with proper guidance and support from teachers.' 'I am very happy and proud. Her achievement is a beacon of hope for many more students from remote areas, who now believe that they too can reach the prestigious higher educational institutions,' Mr. Vijayan added.
