Mangalore/Hubli/Madikeri/Mysore: Students from Dakshina Kannada have bagged the first rank both in medical and engineering streams in the Common Entrance Test (CET) while students of Hubli have secured the first two positions in the architecture stream.

Aneesh Bhat P. of St. Aloysius Pre-University College, Mangalore, has got the first rank in CET-medical.

He ranks 18th in the engineering stream. Son of Dr. P.S. Bhat, cardiologist, and Hemalatha, homemaker, Aneesh is yet to decide on the professional course he will take up. His mother said the family had expected him to score within the 20th rank but had not thought that he would secure the top rank.

Having passed the national talent search examination while he was in tenth class, he is getting a scholarship, Ms. Hemalatha said. “I want to study in Karnataka as the standard of education is good here,” Aneesh said.

Naveen Bhat Y. of Sathya Sai Lokaseva Pre-University College, Alike, Bantwal taluk, has bagged the first rank in the engineering stream.

Son of Umesh Bhat, engineer, and Vijayalakshmi, homemaker, Naveen said he had put in three to four hours of study every day and had not expected he would get the first rank.

His father, Umesh Bhat, said his son would either study electronics or communication.

Yashwant Marathe of Sri Satyasayi Lokaseva PU college in Alike, Dakshina Kannada has secured second rank in CET engineering and 12th in medical stream.

Son of Padmakar, bank employee, and Geetha Bhave, teacher, Yashwant said that he would take up engineering and later pursue MBA and appear for civil services examination. “I would like to serve the nation by joining the IAS,” he said confidently.

M. Vimal of Vijaya Vittala PU College, Mysore, who has got the third rank in engineering, is the son of B. Manohar, scientist, and Malathi, homemaker. Vimal has qualified in the Indian Institute of Technology Joint Entrance Examination (IIT JEE) and plans to pursue aerospace engineering at IIT Madras. He attributed his success in the IIT to focused study for six hours a day for two years. His preparation for IIT had helped him romp home with ease in the PUC and the CET, Vimal said.

Priyanka K. Dharamshi of Chetan Pre University College in Hubli, who has secured the first rank in architecture stream, is the daughter of Khiren Dharamshi, engineer, and Nalini, teacher. Priyanka who was overwhelmed with joy as she never expected that she would be the topper, said, “I have a fascination for drawing and didn’t feel like I was making any extra efforts for CET,” she said. Priyanka said she aspires to take up civil services.

Ramya M. Sanu of Chetan Pre University College, Hubli, has secured the second rank in architecture stream. Daughter of Manjunath and Manjula Sanu, both entrepreneurs, Ramya said her mother was her source of inspiration. “Although she doesn’t spend extra hours for her study, she is a quick learner”, said her father Manjunath. Ramya said she will appear for IAS examination after her graduation.

K.R. Anusha of Sadvidya PU College, Mysore, who has secured the third rank in the Indian System of Medicine and Homoeopathy (ISM and H), is the daughter of K.N. Ramachandra, engineer, and A.C. Usha, homemaker, Anusha said she was yet to decide on the course she would pursue but she said she preferred engineering.
