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

Students from around Noida
A student anywhere in Noida can take IGCSE Grade 9 Computer Science (CS) with us — Blue, Children, Extension or Greater included — because the class is online and there is no centre to travel to. Noida sits in Uttar Pradesh, where the UP Board (UPMSP) runs alongside the national boards, so we are asked about both.
How Noida 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 Noida asks questions in the moment, exactly as they would in a classroom. Recordings are provided for revision only.

My experience with Kwickprep has been incredibly rewarding. The course quality, teaching style, and study materials were all excellent. What I found most valuable were the in-depth notes and the extensive collection of question papers available on the website at all times. The notes were clear, concise, and easy to understand, while the question papers gave me the freedom to practice at my own pace and build confidence. The one-on-one classes were especially helpful, allowing me to learn at my own speed and clear all my doubts on the spot. Ma'am explained every concept with great clarity using easy-to-follow PowerPoints, and the additional resources in the app, including year-wise papers, helped me gain a solid understanding of every topic I studied. It was completely worth it, and I'm really grateful for the learning experience I've had with Kwickprep.
