 Good afternoon. I am Jay Kumarat. I hail from the district of Ramnathuram. I have secured all India rank 4 and Tamil Nadu rank 1 in Indian Forest Service Examination 2018. Throughout my preparation, I was in Shankar Institute beginning from 2016 and this is my second attempt. I was guided by Mr. Karthi Enser who is the forestry teacher here and there are also several geologist faculties who helped me secure this rank. As every journey goes this was a tiresome one with lots of highs and lows and the credit really goes to the people who were in my low times beginning from my parents, my teachers and my friends. And my journey would be incomplete if I do not mention Mr. Shankar sir who was the main reason why I entered this preparation irrespective of the books I read or what the faculties taught. It was sir's words during those lower phrases when I faced failures that I really got motivated to give this examination. Overall it was a beautiful experience to be in this institute and prepare the examination. I not only did I learn a lot of things I also grew as a person and I thank Shankar Institute for helping me reach this position.
