Seedhi Baat is PRATHAM Test Prep's flagship platform for honest conversations between students, parents and universities. This year we're going Beyond the Degree, exploring skills, AI, experience and the future of careers.
Seedhi Baat brings students, parents and universities into one room for honest conversations about education, careers and what comes next. Hear directly from university leaders, students and alumni.
Understand your options, discover emerging opportunities and make choices with greater clarity.
Get an honest view of education, careers, costs, outcomes and what comes after.
Share your story, your academic philosophy and the opportunities you create for the next generation.
The world of education is changing, and so are the questions.
More than a traditional degree.
Finding the right path.
What will actually prepare you for the future.

Hear directly from students and alumni from participating universities: their choices, experiences, opportunities and what comes next.
"What did this university help me become?"The one question every speaker answers
Six institutions. Six perspectives. One question: what should students build beyond the degree?
Ashoka University
Nayanta University
UPES Dehradun
UDIT
O.P. Jindal Global University
FLAME UniversityUniversity stalls are open throughout the day. Meet universities, take part in challenges, collect stickers and discover what each campus has to offer.
Each university runs a short game or quiz at its stall. It is the quickest way to get talking to the people who know the campus best.
The Career Wall is a self-exploration zone. Each QR code opens a new-age course or programme offered by a participating university, so you can find courses you may not have considered before.
