Bengaluru, Karnataka:

Deeksha, the Bengaluru-based coaching firm, on Thursday launched ‘Deeksha PAL’, a mobile app that helps in preparing science students for second year pre-university (PU) examination commencing in March.

Lalit Sridhar, Co-founder and Executive Director of Ace Creative Learning and Deeksha, told reporters that the app gives set of one, three and five marks questions chapter-wise and related solutions. This would help prepare for the exams in a methodical way.

The questions are prepared by subject experts as per the blueprint provided by the PU Board. These questions and answers are on Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Biology, Kannada, English, Hindi and Sanskrit.

The app classifies questions into ‘passing’ and ‘distinction’. While the pass option gives questions that help to clear the subject, the distinction option has more number of questions that helps in getting more marks, Ms. Sridhar said.

Sriram Sabhapathy, head of the technical wing of Deeksha, said the app has been designed in a way that it suits both 2G and 3G mobile sets. Shortly there will be a video commentary wherein subject experts will be speaking of the finer aspects of preparation. They will also provide mock question papers.

The app can be downloaded free of cost from Google Playstore. In the next few days they will be releasing similar questions for PU Commerce stream. They were working on providing questions for first PU course and for class 11 and class 12 of CBSE schools from the coming academic year, Ms. Sridhar said.
