Admission process
Knowing the student is the foremost step if one wishes to guide him or her on to the right career path. We try to know the student through various testing mechanisms, and then make him or her aware of their personality, interests, values, passions and aspirations.
We assess a candidate on the following criteria
- Academic performance in past years.
- Career aspirations and goals.
- Intelligence Quotient (IQ).
- Problem-solving skills.
- Learning habits.
- Behavioural attitude (EQ).
If you are interested in taking admission in our program, we encourage you to visit our centre to meet us, see our institute, know us, and assess if we are the right fit for you. We urge you to take a prior appointment by calling us so that we are well prepared to serve you.
On meeting us, if you find that we are the right institute for you, we suggest you go through the admission process.
If you are convinced that you want to start the admission process, the first step is the registration and purchase of the application packet worth ₹500.
At the time of registration you can choose the application date according to your convenience.
Our admissions process is highly impersonal. This admission process is a holistic, intense and time-taking one. It is enlightening and appropriate. Every step of the process is essential. We don't believe in a one-dimensional measure of a child's aptitude based on problem solving. Our admission process consists of enabling the student to discover himself or herself. Its purpose is to provide the right career guidance to the student. The process has three steps:
- Written feedback about the student's career aspirations, goals, strengths and weaknesses, study habits and behavioural traits from the viewpoint of both parents and student.The information is used in totality to discuss the whole gamut of questions about the child's career.
- General Aptitude Test, which contains problems based on mental ability.This test gives transparency about the student's Intelligence Quotient (IQ) and problem-solving skills.
- Scholastic Aptitude Test, which contains problems of Maths and Science based on the Class 9 and 10 syllabus.This test shows the child's aptitude for problem solving.
Through this process the admissions officer gets a glimpse of who you really are and what sets you apart from all the rest.
