 Hello, my name is Minnu PM, I have secured 150th rank in civil service examination of 2020, I have done my education in industrial microbiology and biochemistry, I did my post graduation in biochemistry, after that I have been working as an LD clerk with Kerala police department, I have started my preparation in 2015 last lap, so 2016 I have given my first problems, then this was my sixth attempt for civil services, the initial break in my preparation has come from the prestigious academy of India Shankarayesh, because in 2016 I couldn't secure, I couldn't clear the problems, so I understood there is a laxity in my preparation and I was not at all streamlined, so what made me clear preliminary exam of 2017 is the all India test series of Shankarayesh, that was the only thing I did during that time, because in 2016 December Shankarayesh has started their prelims test series program and I have joined it, I religiously followed it and I managed to be in the top ten in most of the test at the last leg of the test series also, so that test series immensely benefited me in securing, in clearing the prelims of 2017 and I attended the interview that year also, but I couldn't clear that time, during this preparation phase, right from 2016 December to until clearing this civil service examination, Shankarayesh has been very much instrumentally supported me throughout my preparation, I have a small designation in Shankarayesh also, I have been a mentor here since 2018, so I have been associating with the staff, the faculty as well as the students of mentors for the last three to four years and words are very short from my side to express my sincere gratitude to the academy, I am humbled and I am honored to be a part of this team, thank you, thank you Sia, thank you, as I always say, this is my home away from home, thank you.
