A young girl who passed her Secondary School Leaving Certificate (SSLC) examinations with 81.76% wants to become an IAS officer. But the student doubts if her dream would ever come true, without the necessary financial support.
Akshatha, who hails from a poor family, is not even sure if she could pursue a PU course in science.
Her father, a security guard, is not in a financially sound footing to fund her studies, and the girl is all set to pursue studies in Science.
The girl was a student of Panchajanya Vidyapeetha in Rajajinagar and passed the SSLC securing 511 marks out of 625.
She wants to apply for a re-evaluation of her papers, but wonders if her parents could afford the necessary fee.
“I have been staying at the government hostel (Jagajeevanram hostel) for the past two years. I did well in the exams and was hopeful of securing above 90%. But I don’t why I got just 511/600. I wanted to apply for re-valuation, but my parents are not in a position to spend so much money,” Akshatha said.
Akshatha had studied in Kannada medium till class 7.
“It was difficult in the beginning to cope with lessons. But from class 9 onwards, I started studying with more concentration and decided to clear my SSLC exams with distinction,” said Akshatha.
“Now I want to join a good college and pursue my PU education, but my parents are asking me to join arts course in a nearby government college. I don’t know what to do now, but I want to continue my studies and want to be a state topper in the second PU exams,” Akshatha said.
Her father Savanth said his family has been having a hand-to-mouth existence.
“Even my wife is working as a housekeeper. What we earn is not enough for food and clothes. It was with much difficulty that we funded her high school.” said Savanth.
Akshatha said she used to study three hours each in the morning and evening.
