Reviews From Mentees
Answer Writing Mentorship

The evaluations received are subjective, detailed and updated with affairs. Every piece of feedback has proper rationale attached along with assistance in how to improve. It is not a unilateral "model answer" based approach for evaluation. Every bit of feedback is open to discussion and debate, also leading to alternative approaches that may fit the bill. As a mentor, Aashish has always been available to me, even for the silliest doubts and has created an environment where it is easy to reach out for doubts or clarifications.

Aashish is well aware about the UPSC syllabus, exam pattern, resources and the requirement of the exam. He sets realistic goals and makes them achieveable by using excel sheets and Kanban. He also keeps motivating from time to time in case someone is stuck, making him an exceptional mentor.
