The class + app loop

Every chapter, four steps.

What you learn in class goes straight into practice in the app. Your mistakes come back until they stick, and timed papers show where you stand.

  1. Step 01 · In class

    Learn it in class

    An instructor teaches the chapter live, online or in Mumbai, and takes your questions as you go.

  2. Step 02 · In the app

    Practice it in the app

    Take the chapter's questions in the app. Answers come with the reasoning, so a wrong pick still teaches you something.

  3. Step 03 · In the app

    Focus on your mistakes

    Focus gathers what you saved, what you missed twice or more, and what you mastered a while ago, so revision goes where it is needed.

    AeroMentor app: the Focus screen, grouping saved questions, questions missed twice or more, and mastered but stale questions
  4. Step 04 · In the app

    Sit timed papers

    Timed papers in exam conditions, scored the moment you finish.

Swipe through the four steps. Then the next chapter, the same way.
