1. What is Learningroots all about?

A. If you are reading this, rest assured you are either an MBA aspirant, a friend, a critic or a competitor. We at Learningroots cater to the first type. We help unravel the mysteries of prep and customize it to suit the needs of the aspirant. As of now, we are targeting MBA entrances and the post test processes (GD/PI/WAT/etc.).

2. What are our credentials?

A. We are presently a team of four people who handle the core content and backend processes. These people are at among the best when it comes to test prep and mentorship. Our credentials at cracking tests are almost unparalleled with a 100%ile in CAT, three 99.5+%iles over the last 2 years, Ranks 1, 5, 9 in CET, and 99.9+%iles across various tests like XLRI’s XAT, Symbiosis’ SNAP, NMIMS’ NMAT, IIFT entrance test, MAT and so on.

We understand that there is more to an entrance test than simply learning basics of English and Math. If you have visited other avenues, you would have been fed with the information that an entrance test is extremely crack-able and you need to have strong basics to crack it. WRONG! Trust us, it is not that straightforward and we know how to tackle the additional part.

3. Why another coaching institute? What makes you different?

A. Let us explain this with an example. You can find a list of the best cities to live in, here. Although it’s pretty clear that people would want to stay in these cities, the list of most populous cities suggests otherwise. We plan to be the former and so, our emphasis is on putting forth the best content available which is tailored at an individual level rather than manufacturing products for mass consumption. The problem with the latter is that, there is no differentiation that is being provided by the institute and so, whatever difference comes out in the final score tally, simply reflects the effort put in by the individual.

Our USP is our team and the exposure we have had across domains (you would meet ex-Career Launcher, Pagalguy, Accenture, TAS, ITC, Great Place to Work, SEBI, Damco, JJ Hospital, National level Quizzers, a doctor, a science grad, and engineers; we have work experience across Education & Mentorship, Sales & Marketing, Finance, Strategy, HR, and Operations; who are ex-placement coordinators, media cell associates, etc. all this in a team of four). We have personalized mentorship programmes for all our students which would keep them aware throughout regarding the optimum strategy at an individual level. For the price sensitive, we are extremely competitive with regards to industry standards.

4. How can we trust your content? There is no precedence as such, is there?

A. True! To give a brief about our methodology and the content that we would offer, we have put up a few videos for your perusal. We have had a lot of experience in mentorship and product development for the last 7 years or so across various online and offline forums. Those who are active on online forums might be familiar with our work. We have already run a course for MBA CET 2015 and you can see from our testimonials regarding what to expect from the course. You can also touch base with our team through a visit/phone/mail/FB/Whatsapp/LinkedIn to get more information regarding our products/reservations/suggestions. If you are around, we would love to have you come over for a lecture or a session for free and evaluate us.

5. Is there any refund policy or money back guarantee with regards to your products?

A. Depends. We treat all such scenarios on a case to case basis. On a broad level though, the content is extremely sensitive and we would not ideally want to offer it at a trial level.

6. Is your online course sufficient for a fresher/experienced professional to crack CAT?

A. Yes. This online course is nothing less than what you would be offered at your nearest coaching institute. You can always shoot queries to us and rest assured, they will be resolved. In fact, we would encourage trying out the online interface which gives you access to few of the best mentors rather visiting a classroom just for the brick-n-mortar feeling. We have more than 300 videos covering all the basic concepts and strategies that would help you crack the various entrance tests. Add to that GDPI assistance and you can be rest assured that you would not be lagging behind compared to your classroom peers in any aspect.

7. Are you planning to run a classroom programme across India?

A. As of now, we are based out of Mumbai and would be running a classroom programme only for students who are willing to come to Mumbai for weekend sessions. For the rest, we have videos plus online assistance with regards to queries, strategies, etc. to help you customize your prep.
