MindSpark realises the importance of critical thinking, and hence, conducts Genius Junior: an aptitude test for school going children, every year. Being a complete student organised event, we, at MindSpark, are grateful towards the college faculties, sponsors and its beloved alumni for their invaluable support, without whom, MindSpark is merely, an idea.
