Sushumna Satyanarayana and Sharanya Satyanarayana, non-identical twins from Bangalore (Karnataka) have managed to grab admission seat in the same Delhi University college and course on the basis of their spectacular academic performance in the Karnataka State Board exams.
Both of them have got admission in Delhi University’s Sri Venkateswara College in the Biochemistry (Hons) programme on the basis of the DU first cut off which was declared on 18th June 2018. Sharanya had managed to score 96.33% in class 12th whereas her younger twin Sushumna scored 96.66%.
According to a leading news website, the twin sisters said that they always wanted to study together but for some reason, their school did not allow them to be in the same class. They only got a chance to be in the same class in 11th and 12th as both of them opted for the Science with bio stream. They were determined to seek admission in the same college and course because of their identical career interests.
