This is Snehil Gupta a commerce student and an average student with 6 years education gap and 2 times State Level Tables Tennis player,born in Jaunpur(Uttar Pradesh) and bought up in Renukoot(Uttar Pradesh). I traveled in different states for studies like Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh.

From childhood I was very much interested in computer when I was 12 years old my mom purchased me a computer. Due to that interest several times I destroyed my computer parts(RAM, Motherboard, Power Circuit Board). After completing my Higher Secondary School I was decided to go for Engineering. Luckily I cleared Maharashtra Common Entrance Test and Madhya Pradesh Common Entrance Test. In Nasik(Maharashtra) I was allotted Computer Science and in Bhopal(Madhya Pradesh) I was allotted Mechanical Branch. After discussing with some peoples and close relatives me and my family decided to go for Mechanical as it is an Evergreen branch. Even after selecting Mechanical branch my craze on computer didn’t died. During college time I always keep myself updated with technology specially in computer field. Even my friends ask me for a suggestion before purchasing any new laptops and mobile phones. During my college time I joined as a Table Tennis Coach in St. George School Bhopal for 1 month after that I joined BPO as a part time for personal expenditure. Everything was going good but unfortunately in 3rd year I met with an accident I was fall from local train in Mumbai. After accident I was on complete bed rest as my left knee got severe injuries and got plastered. I was unable to walk for 2 months during that time I used to crawl on my hip after that I used walker for walking. In the 4th month I need to go for physiotherapy daily because the movement of left leg was almost end. Due to this I had to drop my Engineering because backlogs and current semester paper was getting too much burden on me and I was unable to clear the papers.

After dropping my Engineering I was in dilemma what to do next then my parents decided to send me Surat(Gujarat) for learning business. After spending one month I felt sick(Stone in Kidney) due to this I left Surat and came back to my home for proper treatment. After recovering my parents decided I should complete my Graduation from B.com. I joined B.com course and decided to start preparing for Government jobs simultaneously. I went Delhi and took admission in an Institute for proper guidance. That was a tough time for me to manage 2 courses at a same time one my graduation and another government preparation. But anyhow I managed both and completed my Graduation in 2019, after that I decide to start giving complete focus on Government job. In 2019 I was given my 1st attempt but not got cleared, after that in 2020 Covid-19 came lock-down happens. Again bad luck happens just before one month of my exam I was tested Covid-19 positive which destroyed my all preparation and again I was unable to clear exam, and in December my father had a second Cardiac Attack. After that I decided to go back to my hometown and do preparation from there and do job also to support my family. After returning home one more time I was tested Covid-19 positive. After recovering from Covid-19, I joined Byju’s as a Business Development Associate for 6 months during job I got sick(Accident, Cervical, Typhoid) back to back all in one month. So, I had to left my job.

After recovering I decided to joined Masai School because I was keeping an eye on Masai from 2019. Then I discussed about Masai School with my parents, they supported me for my decision. I given MSAT-1 and MSAT-2 on same day. Luckily I got cleared MSAT exams in one attempt and got selected for upcoming batch and on 15-Nov-2021 I joined Masai School as a Full Stack Web Developer.
