Great App! I use the app for current affairs. Also, The daily quizzes help. A few suggestions though 1) The images in the daily news are not responsive. 2) Could you please add a weekly quiz too for the current affairs. 3) it would be great if I have the option of swiping to the next news rather than going back to the list and selecting them.
I would say it is the best of all the apps I have used. No unnecessary information. No vomitting of information. Just a simple interface with a limited data that is of use. It supplements your preparation. Edit: I have been using this app for six months and this is the best online education platform I have ever seen. Very simple to navigate through. No bloodsuckers. No frustrating ads. Content is quite reliable.
Quality of material, as good as it is, is still not on par with insights or vision. I would say 80% there. Fir something free that's really great. Maybe strike a deal with insights/vision and include their content in this interface in webview. The interface is best out of all the civil services websites/apps , the way large material is made easy and intuitively accessible is commendable. But the material needs to evolve more. Lastly. Hats off for the free stuff. Overall decent app and website
The app provides precise and current news. Also, it provides a platform for the students to go through all the current news in a less time. Furthermore, premils dose, at the end of every news article gives chance to the students to practice current affairs daily for cracking exam. But the only problem is, sometimes this app doesn't update the current affairs properly on the given dates.
This app was good when it was free 2 years ago. The materials were to crisp and perfectly designed for every small topics. Even the test series were free but now they ask for some fees.
Unistalled it. After update it became a paid version. Everything that was free before has been made paid. If I have to pay, why would I go for this? There are much better app/Institute than this. The price is too high for mere 4 months validity. One can not even download the notes. Useless.
Awesome Experience with this app. Updated current affairs helps one in gaining the momentum. Only issue is you cannot print the pdf though you can download it. While printing The watermark template comes in between the text making it unreadable.
Its an awesome application. Thanks for bringing such a platform. It will help many people. You can also add material about optional subjects, essays and ethics because every big coaching has their apps which provide the information mostly similar like yours but including above mentioned things will give you an edge over them. Thus will make you different for good. Rest its a noble work. Thanks again.
The app is great. no doubt. however, reading can be a bit strenuous. There is no zoom in or zoom out option. It is not possible to download notes either. I have opened the app many times but haven't been able to read as such.
Very good app for civil servent aspirant, it contain all the material such as subject related topics, current affairs, quiz, etc. It describes in simple English which in a concise manner that everyone can easily understand what it derives. It is very useful and it is efficient in time management.
Brittle grievance redressal mechanism- 1.please add feature of adding daily news in favourites. Which may helpful in revision of only those news which are marked by users as favourite.it helps a lot....And all the things are fine. 2. In test series user can't report the question or answer if he/she feels it is wrong and require further explanation..
Amazing app for civil aspirants.. to the point, crisp, clear and in simple language which helps in remembering things easily.... Thanks a lot team oliveboard....👍👍 One thing I want to suggest that if possible please try to provide dictionary in daily news section so that we can know the meaning of difficult words that will help understand the feed more easily.....
app is excellent one more feature please add ...... u add please when we read notes we cannot zoom it. It is very difficult to read all notes with no zoom in or zoom out facility. Eyes are destroyed with if there is no zoom in or out feature. Please work upon this..... Thanks for skholar team for great initiative...😉
App is very good. Content is also fine. But please let us download the notes. As it is difficult to read in the app, we can download and take a print out or annotate the pdf. If you are giving free content but not letting us download it, then the objective of providing free resources is only half fulfilled.
Everything is great but the notes section needs improvement, whenever i read notes, my eyes get stressed reading this much size of font, atleast make it supportable to landscape mode or make it compatible with zooming by pinch, it will be really helpful
It is a very handy and useful.app.I would say east to use, good interface, bug free, least fatal. Content is sorted and relevant so doesnt bombard you with gibberish data.i would definitely recommend to .masses. Good job team.keep.rocking!
One of the best application and preparation module for civil services. They have really nice interface and the content of questions are excellent and exhaustive. The only issue I got today, while I was about to revise my mock tests, I couldn't access them, and they started charging, it hampered my preparation at such trying times, where one doesn't have source of money. Dear team skholar, kindly let us access to the tests and revision notes just like before as the exams are soon approaching.
One of the few apps out there which stay true to their description and provide free resources for upsc aspirants. Also the UI is very clean and simple which is an added bonus. Kudos to team skholar!
Its very helpful not only for upsc but also for other state psc exams Especially the shorts notes that are provided are very nice because it helps me for revision and even the current affairs notes are easy and precise for one to understand Thanks a lot SKHOLAR👍☺ I am very happy that skholar has added revision notes and detailed notes for mpsc exams too!😀 Thankyou so much! I am preparing for mpsc exams so it will help me a lot! I highly recommend everyone to use this app☺
I recommend all upsc aspirant should dwnld and follow it especially for prelims. It's notes are crips, to the point, well organised. Essential for last tym revision. Digramatically representation really make it easy to revise many things in shot time.
This is a very good app to cover the daily current issue topics. But there is a minor fault and that is some news seems very important and there should be wishlist options available in the application so that we can restore that important news and can do the revision before the exams. Overall application is quite good. 👍🏻Plz make a wishlist options available for us.
It's such a great app. I request you to maintain these free tests forever so that those who cannot afford even small packages in other renown apps make use of your tests fruitfully and improve their preparation. Coz,we cannot expect every source to be affordable/free of cost and reliable in this commercial world. I hope you shall be a perfect blend of these parameters. Thank You
the only issue in the app is if we download monthly capsules, it downloads new same pdf everytime, rather it should be enabled like we should download it once and access the same file later on. Many other apps do provide that facility.
Its a perfect mentor for the UPSC/PCS Aspirants. Excellent compilation of Important topics with Easy Language. Its very useful for the aspirants preparing in vernacular language and have less access to the material due to language barrier. Easy language and much expalaination with 'to the point' analysis of the topics.
Everything is fine... The app is very helpful.. you are doing great work.. I've just one request that please provide options to download test series so that when we are offline still we can study it...
Absolutely perfect guidance for UPSC exam/ civil services examination. The contents and Materials are very helpful. Nice way to differentiate between all subjects. Daily news analysis and quiz gives the immense amount of revisions.
Skholar provides free mock tests which is very useful for checking your preparation. Daily prelims and mains update are also very comprehensive and explained in lucid manner. Thanks Skholar for providing these for free. PS-Need improvement on many fronts. 1. There should be feedback option on app itself. 2. Every MCQs should have report option to report wrong answer/question/solution. 3. Swiping option for daily news tabs should be there. Kindly look into it.
One stop solution for current affairs(specifically GS-2 and GS-3). It compiles static as well as daily news of a particular topic from various sources (e.g The Hindu+Indian Express) and gives the module... this saves the time of a candidate. It also provides briefings of Magazines like EPW, Kurukshetra etc.. which makes the preparation much easier. I would like to suggest that please compile the Topics of DowntoEarth magazine/website. This will prove much beneficial. Thanks Skholar.
you should add notes zooming feature else everything is fine. notes are not eye friendly because fonts are very small in app but fine on website. so please add zooming feature in app. thank you☺
the app seems to be helpful but I have just started using it. Though there's a few things I wish they can improve. 1. The text always stays in the portrait mode of the screen. If it can work in landscape mode , it will he much easier to handle tables and data charts that need constant scrolling. 2. The daily news section may include a few more topics. 3. Of there is a single pdf of PYQs subject wise for few year periods , it wil be great. Rest, I guess the app is great. I am loving using it.
