App in Hindi to help students prepare for competitiv­e exams

-

LUCKNOW: Now students preparing for competitiv­e examinatio­ns can get their doubts addressed in Hindi with a new educationa­l app ‘Gradeup’.

“We are putting in huge efforts to provide practise questions and study material, especially to aspirants who are preparing in Hindi as this is an underserve­d market for quality preparatio­n material. With ‘Gradeup’ now available in Hindi, our focus is on taking it to more students in Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Bihar and Rajasthan,” said Shobhit Bhatnagar, CEO and co-founder of the app.

Competitiv­e exams covered currently are banking, SSC, GATE, teaching exams (TET/ CTET), engineerin­g entrances (JEE/BITSAT), MBA entrances (CAT/MAT/SNAP), and UPSC civil services, said Bhatnagar.

He said, “UP is the second largest region for Gradeup (after Telangana/Andhra Pradesh) from where more than 3.5 lakh students use the app regularly. Lucknow is the city with 5th highest number of students from India. Agra, Kanpur, Noida and Ghaziabad also have a large number of Gradeup users.”

Bhatnagar said ‘Gradeup’ is among the most downloaded and highest rated education apps on Google play store. It has been downloaded by over 30 lakh students and rated 4.6/5 on Google Play store. The app is also available on the web (www.gradeup.com).

He said students get guidance from mentors in form of study material and personalis­ed doubt clearing. They assess themselves through practice quizzes and tests against thousands of others, and also help each other by sharing relevant resources. The Gradeup community through students and mentors solves over two lakh queries every month. Students also practise more than 7.5 crore questions every month. This helps them keep track of their progress.
