Satyam Kumar, a Bihar farmer's son at the tender age of 13-years old cleared the fiercely competitive Indian Institute of Technology-Joint Entrance Examination (IIT-JEE) and secured an impressive all-India rank of 679.
Satyam, who hails from Bakhorapur village in Bhojpur district qualified for admission into IIT at the age of 12-and-a-half years after he got a special permission from the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE). He had then secured an all-India rank of 8,137. Not satisfied with his low rank, he appeared for the IIT-JEE preliminary examination again and qualified.

Born on 20th July 1999, Satyam had the distinction of being the youngest student to crack the IIT exam, breaking the record of Delhi’s Sahal Kaushik, who achieved the distinction of clearing the exam at 14.
A very simple, down to earth but damn hard working student from a simple farmer family, Satyam always had & till date has great respect for his teachers and it was a wonderful experience to be associated with and to teach this Child Prodigy
