Hi everyone, I'm Shrishti a student at BITS Pilani Pilani campus and today we have Advika with us who is one of our club mates from Phodu Club who has prepared from bits and qualified bits with a really good score. So Advika first of all welcome and let's start with you introducing yourself. Tell us where are you from and yeah mention your scores.

Um so hi I'm Advika I'm from Tamil Nadu. Um and my score in bits was 246. Okay.

So I would like to go back a little in time and I would like to know your jour your journey throughout the two years of your preparation for various competitive exams. Um so in grade 11 I bought an online course. I didn't use it all that much in grade 11.

I was more focused on school. I was getting accustomed to the transition from 10th to 11th. So I didn't bother to prepare for J or any other exam much in grade 11.

In grade 12, I sort of got used to the whole thing and I started preparing for J a little bit seriously in grade 12 like a little bit seriously. I didn't do much. I used online courses a little bit.

But then it was towards the end like I think the last three to four months before J that I started taking it seriously. I used an online site for PQS. PQS was like about all I did for J.

Um so then I gave J and for after J we had like board exams, right? So that was that. Then all the other competitive exams vit manipal etc etc I pretty much just relied on notes and stuff that I'd made from my school textbooks and for bits of course Phodu Club.

So you actually you know boosted your preparation during the last phase right. So when you decided you had to give your bits exam, how did you find about Phodu Club and what made you think that yes I have to join this platform? I have to join Phodu Club.

Um we were doing I really didn't know the first thing about bits honestly like after J I I'd heard about it a little bit but I we did a simple Google search that you know stuff that um I can use to prepare for and I'd seen I'd heard of Phodu Club before. But I don't know if it was through YouTube, but I'd heard of it like a lot. And when we Googled it, I think that was the first thing that showed up and I was like, "This is it.

I'm just going to this is the sign." So, pretty much just And there were there was another course um but I'm pretty sure it said in English or something and I'm not really comfortable with Hindi Phodu Club. All the videos were like in English. That was like amazing for me.

And I really didn't expect to get as much as I got in Phodu Club. I didn't know what to expect. But then there was a lot of stuff and it was like really it felt really handmade you know and I really like that.

So yeah so handmade by the bit science for future scenes right? Yeah. Yeah.

So one final question to you if someone is sitting on the fence right now he or she is confused between whether to join Phodu Club or not. So what would be your honest recommendation to them on this? I'd say join.

I didn't whatever courses or got bitad or otherwise I never utilized it to their full extent but then Phodu Club I'm they had a lot of stuff and it was all really really wellm made so I say definitely go for it I didn't use it all that well personally speaking but had I I'm pretty sure I could have done a whole lot better there there's a lot of stuff and it's all really good so definitely definitely go for Phodu Club right soika that was all for the interaction thank you so much for joining us thank you.
