Ranchi: A day after the state government allowed coaching centres to reopen from March 1, JEE and NEET aspirants on Friday thronged the institutes, enquiring about the admission process even as some centres distributed enrolment forms. After the pandemic slammed the brakes on their dreams of becoming doctors and engineers for nearly a year, the Class XII board examinees were waiting with baited breath for coaching classes to resume. Though some of them continued nurturing their dreams of cracking the JEE and NEET by making the most of online classes conducted by a few institutes, all of them agreed that the lack of an interactive session leaves many doubts unresolved. “I had enrolled in a leading institute’s online course during the lockdown last year but you cannot solve complex topics like calculus just by attending online classes. My preparation for cracking JEE has already been comprised by 11 months because of viral outbreak and now I am not going to waste any more time. I want to get myself enrolled for physical classes at the earliest,” Class XII student and JEE aspirant Shravan Kumar said.
