    I also wanna work in research in STEAM, but this JEE path is not a sustainable idea. I belong to a lower middle class family and I don't know how could I make it.😛

      Hey Aarav. I completely understand. Remember that the JEE is only of the options and while it's important to keep up with it, there are many ways for creative and motivated people like you to thrive in any society, which is MASSIVELY important to follow your curiosity to create new projects and learn new things because those projects will lead you to create the life you want to live, and not the life someone created for you (JEE, College, etc.).
      Wishing you the very best, Aarav. The best is yet to come.

      @@ShauryaSinha it’s crazy how he reached out to David Sinclair and other longevity researchers to test out his hypotheses.
      There’s something interesting there and perhaps to be discovered.
      And yes you’re missing out haha! Come soon!
