Extremely Urgent : CSE Mains 2024 Candidate Cancellations
Like every year, the UPSC days before the Mains Exam has cancelled/withheld admit cards of students appearing for the Mains 2024.
https://forms.gle/WkKQTSiJNao95JBm6
Aggrieved students to please fill this form urgently, I will reach out, and we shall chart out further course of action.
Please don't worry, we've got this.
Thank you.
Technical Update :
AM Courses is migrating to a new learning management software provider that would enable live interactive classes as well as capabilities to host a lot of the academic work that I’ve worked on for the past year which I am sure would solve some very simple yet important problems.
Please bear with me for a day or so and you’d be able to access everything without any disruption.
Thank you and terribly sorry for the inconvenience.
