Kshitij Damodhar
PROMYS India 2023
"PROMYS India changed my perception of what maths is. I realised that the subject had always been defined for me by my school, teachers and everyone. Finally, at PROMYS, I got my own definition of Mathematics. I understood that it's not just about learning how to solve a problem but trying to understand a topic and how all encompassing that 'understanding' is supposed to be."
Oishani Das
PROMYS India 2023
"I learnt some of the most advanced mathematical topics from some of the most prestigious professors at such an young age. It motivated and encouraged me to do more advanced mathematics... I was able to attend PROMYS India because it was free and my parents could not bear the cost of the whole camp, so I also thank the persons who funded the camp to make it free, and thanks to them I could travel in plane for the first time in my life."
Sk Sameer Rahaman

"The problems were just so exciting, even while sleeping the last thing on the mind would be the problem set!"

"I felt I belonged here. The joy of solving, making conjectures and coming up with counter example was another pleasure. I learned so much, not just from classes and psets, but also from the students and counsellors. The faculty at IISc were super friendly and the campus is a dream come true."
Niti Torphe

"PROMYS India is like a wonderland of mathematics...I also had a great time on sharing my thoughts with my peers, asking questions..(which indeed were never answered but what I got back was 100 more questions !! which in turn helped me not to depend on someone and find the way on my own in math, in life!)"
