ICAD has announced a strong performance by its students in the National Standard Examinations (NSE) 2025 conducted under the National Olympiad framework. Two ICAD students, Omisha Jain and Madhur Chandak, have crossed the Merit Index (MI) in NSEC (Chemistry), which indicates direct qualification for the Indian National Chemistry Olympiad (INChO) Stage-II. In addition, ICAD students also achieved significant results at the Minimum Admissible Score (MAS) benchmark of National Standard Examination in Physics (NSEP) and National Standard Examination in Chemistry (NSEC).

 

Ten ICAD students those who cleared the NSEC–MAS benchmark are Aagam Jain, Anannya Baheti, Aritra Maji, Khushagra Jha, Pratyush Agarwal, Rajarshi Hazra, Snehal Pokle, Suprateek Bisala, Pranjal Gharote and Adit Kapse. Five ICAD students cleared the NSEP-MAS benchmark. These students are Aagam Jain, Pratyush Agarwal, Rajarshi Hazra, Snehal Pokle, and Omisha Jain. Also, two ICAD students cleared National Standard Examination in Biology (NSEB) benchmark and their names are Aditya Thakre and Ganesh Jhadav. “Crossing MI is a major milestone because it reflects direct qualification at the national merit level. At the same time, clearing MAS is a strong indicator of Stage-II readiness. All these students are strong contenders for top ranks in JEE-Advanced.
