Is this course right for a Bengaluru student?
Most Bengaluru schools follow the Karnataka Board / PUC (KSEEB), with CBSE, ICSE/ISC and Cambridge schools alongside. We teach the CBSE, ICSE/ISC, Cambridge IGCSE, GSEB and NIOS computer subjects, not the KSEEB computer paper itself, so this course suits a Bengaluru student in one of those schools.

Bengaluru sits in Karnataka, where the Karnataka Board / PUC (KSEEB) runs alongside the national boards, so we are asked about both.
How Bengaluru students attend
Every class is live at Indian Standard Time, in a small batch or one-to-one. Nothing is pre-recorded, so a student in Bengaluru asks questions in the moment, exactly as they would in a classroom. Recordings are provided for revision only.

I was also preparing for my JEE entrance exam. I thought that I was not able to complete the syllabus in a short period of time, but as per the commitment, the course has been completed, and I got a thorough revision too, which was quite useful. The Kwickprep course, study material, and quality of teaching were good. I got support during my practical examination. Doubt solving took place in very less time. I am satisfied with the course.
