About JSTE
We believe potential is everywhere.
JSTE exists to find it.
Why JSTE exists
School performance is only one way to understand a student. Marks, ranks inside a classroom, and a single annual exam at school cannot always show what a child can do.
JSTE is the Junior Search Talent Exam. It gives students in Classes III–IX a common two-level online examination so talent can be seen on the same terms, wherever they study.
What makes it different
25 scholarships in every class
175 opportunities across Classes III–IX — class by class, not one mixed list.
A two-layer process
Every eligible registered student writes Layer 1. Only those who qualify write Layer 2.
Class-wise scholarships
Recognition is earned within each class, so a Class III student is not measured against Class IX.
Paid on the felicitation date
Scholarships are paid on the official felicitation date, subject to verification.
Support inside the fee
Preparation resources and result analysis are included in the applicable fee.

What we believe
Every student has potential. JSTE will hunt it.
Potential is not limited to one kind of school, one board, or one mark sheet. JSTE exists to hunt it — class by class, layer by layer.

Schools are the usual path. A parent or guardian can also register one child.
