  • Cover at least 60%: By solving the past papers you can comfortably clear 60% of the exam; the remaining 40% can be tackled with the Catch the Math series and other support classes.
  • Regular practice: Pause, solve each question on your own, then compare with the video solution.

Subject‑wise Coverage

  • Mathematics: Detailed solution of every question, speed‑run style to maximize coverage.
  • Science & General Knowledge: Separate channels – Quick Tricks Exam – for GK and Science revision.
