Up for grabs will be iPads, Kindles and 40 consolation prizes. It is estimated that over 10,000 students from over 500 Indian cities would be vying for top honours.
"Now, since CBSE exams are round the corner, this mobile-based contest would facilitate thousands of students country-wide benchmark their performance and thereby, work on their weak areas," said TCY's CEO, Mr. Kamal Wadhera. He informed that the contest would exactly be based on their CBSE final exam syllabus.
While the contest is open for schools, teachers and private institutes, students have to shell out Rs. 299 per head.
It is worth mentioning that the increasing problem of exam stress is attributed to a general lack of focus in exam preparation. With TCY-K12's app, thousands of students are already mastering their chapters by systematically identifying knowledge gaps and eliminating them.
The objective of this contest is to encourage students to use this digital-age technology to bridge their knowledge gaps to ultimately score well in their tests.
How it works:
In this contest, a set of CBSE model papers will be given to students on the app to practice for CBSE final exams. The students will download the paper, attempt on a sheet of paper and upload the answer-sheet for evaluation. The papers are evaluated at the TCY-K12 evaluation facility under the guidance of CBSE veterans.
Post-test, a detailed report not only points out the weak areas and common errors to student, but also will tell him how to overcome these weaknesses. So, the student is able to make focused remedial efforts towards a perfect score. Finally, his score in the CBSE final exam along with his scores in the model paper, would be taken into account in announcing the TCY-K12 Genius.
It may be recalled that TCY had already conducted a similar kind of contest in July last but that was only limited to states of Punjab, Haryana and Jammu & Kashmir. Over 3,000 CBSE students took part in the contest after registering on the website http://www.TCYonline.com . Last year Sushant, Mannat, Mayank and Anshul won the coveted prizes.
