My experience with PRATHAM was good and rather informative. Plenty of content and prep material was provided, especially the mock tests that were essential to gather an in depth understanding of the syllabus. The Faculty members were patient as well however they could be more efficient in explaining and teaching the syllabus. Servicing of the other staff was good as well.

My experience was an excellent one, from teaching to support from the faculty members, everything was beyond my expectations. The content provided was very good, and any question I came across in my exams was something I had already done atleast once. The mock tests gave a perfect idea of what kind of paper I would be sitting for, and gave me the experience I needed for the papers.
