The only man to achieve 110 in 100 mark paper.
Have you ever heard of anyone achieving more mark than full mark? In fact it is impossible, and you might have never heard of it. But there is one person who got 110 marks in 100 full mark exam. The person is no other than a popular scientist and mathematician of India Mr. Satyendra Nath Bose.
The very talented Bose was born in Calcutta. He got his initial education at local school and later admitted to a Hindu School. The famous mathematician Upendra Bakshi used to teach mathematics in the school. Mr. Bakshi gave him 110 marks in a 100 full mark mathematics paper. The marks given was against the rule but it happened.
After knowing about it, the principal of the school inquired teacher Bakshi about it and he replied. Satyendra didn't leave any question and answered all questions correctly in given time. He even solved many questions in multiple approach correctly, so I can't stop myself giving him extra marks. After listening to Mr. Bakshi, the principal was speechless and was awarded with 110 marks in 100 mark mathematics paper. Also during his time at MMC, in a mathematics paper, no one can solve the answer and he was only a student to claim the question is wrong, which he proved infornt of his professors.
