Dual-Curriculum Mastery and Industry Immersion Forge Odisha’s Future Tech Leaders
SAI International School celebrates an extraordinary academic milestone as its students conquer the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Advanced 2025, following exceptional achievements in national/international board curricula. The JEE Advanced results were announced on the evening of 2 June 2025. Leading this triumph is SAIoneer Suvram Jyoti Behera, the school's top performer with a stellar All India Rank (AIR) 934, guiding a distinguished group of 17+ peers who have secured admissions to premier Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs). This accomplishment is amplified by 54 SAIoneers achieving above 90 percentiles in JEE (Main) this year, cementing the institution's unique pedagogy that seamlessly blends academic rigor with competitive excellence. A dual triumph excelling simultaneously in CBSE, Cambridge and now, competitive exams such as JEE Advanced, showcases SAI’s unique pedagogy that transforms academic pressure into purposeful innovation.
Fueled by the visionary Dr. Bijaya Kumar Sahoo Scholarship Program
Each year, several students qualify for the Bijaya Kumar Sahoo Scholarship Program through the SAI Entrance Test (SET), earning 100% scholarships and holistic academic support. The program selects 90-100 talented learners annually, bridging educational gaps and empowering them to prepare for national-level competitive exams with confidence. This initiative stands as a tribute to the legacy of Founder-Chairman, Dr. Bijaya Kumar Sahoo, who believed that financial constraints should never hinder the pursuit of excellence.
Several SAIoneers including Suvram Jyoti Behera (AIR 934), Ayushman Dibyasingh Behera (AIR 3260), Ashutosh Sethi (AIR 3296), Mayank Maurya (AIR 4165), Satwik Mahapatra (AIR 4451), Baibhaba Moharana (AIR 4841), Dibyanshu Sekhar Sahu (AIR 4856), Biswajit Barik (AIR 5318), Ashmit Mohapatra (AIR 6838), Jyotiraditya Parida (AIR 7421), and Rishabh Roy Choudhury (AIR 7889), have performed outstandingly well in JEE (Advanced) 2025 , and are here to claim Odisha’s as well as India’s engineering future.
The SAI advantage lies in its "Dual-Track Innovation Framework”, where students meticulously balance the CBSE curriculum with JEE preparation through structured 8-10 hour study routines grounded in NCERT fundamentals. Regular class attendance, disciplined schedules, and mentor-led academic planning ensured students remained focused and consistent. Daily and weekly doubt-clearing sessions, along with stress-resilience workshops, played a pivotal role in maintaining mental well-being and academic clarity. This strategic preparation transformed their PCM (Physics, Chemistry, Maths) journey into a launchpad for national-level success.
“My journey to perform so well was shaped by more than just books, it was the real-world exposure from school-based internships at SAI, the conceptual clarity from coaching, and the unwavering support of my mentors who helped me find purpose in every equation. This achievement is as much my parents’ and school’s as it is mine. They turned pressure into purpose and gave me the confidence to dream big.” Reflected Suvram Jyoti Behera, JEE Advanced 2025 School Topper.
Dr. Silpi Sahoo, Chairperson, SAI International, voiced profound humility and happiness: "These young innovators prove that when we invest in minds and character, rankings follow. Their leap from our classrooms to IITs will reshape India’s tech destiny.”
Beyond academics, SAI International’s “Life-Ready” ecosystem fostered collaboration and resilience. Peer innovation circles encouraged collective problem-solving, while monthly parent-mentor syncs ensured a supportive and focused home environment. Real-world exposure through industry internships at leading STEM organizations bridged classroom learning with practical application. At SAI, success is not measured solely by ranks, but by the purpose and determination instilled in every learner, where JEE glory becomes the first spark in a lifelong fire of national impact.
