TEST
The ‘Test’ feature is specially created for self evaluation. It provides unlimited testing tools for learners to assess how much they have learnt.

Group Quizzes and tests can be taken for single or multiple chapters. These tests are time bound and allow learners to view their performance report after every level, giving them real time analytical results, which leads to an insight of their progression. These tests can also be assigned by parents and mentors to track, monitor and supervise the performance of students during their study journey. The ‘Progress’ feature helps learners and their mentors to constantly check their progress through the curriculum. It gives a clear view of how much they have studied along with the number of chapters covered and how much they have scored.
