Yash Jain tops NEET super speciality exam
Bhubaneswar: Dr Yash Jain from Kantabanji in Balangir district has made Odisha proud by securing an all India rank 1 in the NEET Super Speciality (NEET-SS) exam 2024, conducted by the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences, New Delhi. Jain scored 498 out of 600 marks.
The 27-year-old is the son of businessman Sunil Jain. After completing his MBBS, he pursued his postgraduate (PG) degree at Government Medical College, Nagpur. "It was my first attempt after completing PG. I will choose gastrointestinal (GI) surgery as my superspecialty, which will be a three-year course," said Jain.
Expressing his happiness, Jain said his family was overwhelmed with pride. "I never imagined I would top the exam. I was simultaneously caring for patients at Government Medical College, Nagpur, while preparing for NEET-SS. My seniors and teachers played a crucial role in guiding me," Jain added.
"If I get a chance to serve Odisha after completing my studies, I will definitely return," he said.
