Academics

1. What is the batch size in all Programs?

Generally we have made a seating capacity of 40 – 50 students in all classrooms at our Study Centres in Pune. In School Integrated Programs, batch size is strictly fixed at 40 which is instructed by the respective board & therefore we follow the rules & policies of the particular school.

2. How is the course designed for the students?

We have got phase structure for each program from our National Academic Team based at HO Delhi & therefore the same course is followed across the country to maintain homogeneity of teaching & testing. Only for HSC Maharashtra Board few topics are taught as required for XII Board preparations on additional basis. To support the students in an overall manner, study material designed & printed at HO is only distributed to the students of Pune Centre.

3. During preparation of JEE, OLYMPIADS, NTSE etc. how FIITJEE faculty will cover board specific portions also?

FIITJEE Faculty are trained in such a manner that while covering the topics in each subject, they ensure that all topics covering Boards, JEE, Olympiads, NTSE etc. are done at the same time. They will teach the students in the best possible way & strengthen their concepts, build fundamentals, make them practice, clear their doubts with overall mentoring.

4. FIITJEE being a forum for IITJEE, why Social Science & Biology are taught for Junior batches?

This is to inform all that some competitive exams like Homi Bhabha (HBBVC), Junior Science Olympiads (JSO) & National Talent Search Examination (NTSE) ask some questions on Social Science & Biology so as we are an exclusive training Centre for such exams it is our responsibility to train students for these subjects along with Science & Maths. Infact FIITJEE also trains junior segment students for Mental Ability (IQ) for such exams.

5. How Students can clear their doubts during the course?

All Integrated Programs are designed keeping Teaching & Doubt Clearance sessions in mind, so Doubt Clearance are mandatory for each student in those programs. For Students coming to the Centre must take out some time from their regular schedules to come to the Centre, meet their respective faculty & clear their doubts after classes. As time boundations are there for batches running at Centre, it advisable for students to clear their doubts on Sundays between 3.30pm – 5.30pm or Tue – Sat (10.30am to 7.30pm) based upon the availability of the faculty. Before coming they should drop an email to ao.pune@fiitjee.com asking for time-slot for such doubt clearance.

6. How parents will come to know about the performance of their ward pursing a course at FIITJEE?

After each test like Daily Test, Weekly Quiz, Phase Test, AITS, AiITS, Mock Test Series etc. results of the entire batch will be emailed to the parent. After each Phase Test, students along with their parents will be called to the Centre for Parent Teaching Meeting in which one faculty will meet them to discuss their overall performance during that phase! Apart from this all the scores will be updated on FIITJEE Pune Site www.fiitjeepune.com for parents to refer it anytime as per their convenient time. Along with this each student RPI, Scores, Success Index, Performance Index are regularly updated on their Glorifire Portal whose login details are shared in the starting of the academic session!

7. In case the student is not well & missed some classes, how they can cover up those missed lectures?

If the student is not keeping well & missed some classes, the parents should drop an email to ao.pune@fiitjee.com asking for specialized classes in order to cover up those topics. They have to mention the reason of absence also along with student name, batch code & enrolment no. The AO team will speak to the faculty & seek additional help for the student!

8. Is there any Specialized Batch for top students?

For Students of Class XI, special CM Sankalp Batch for top students starts mid June every year. The selection of the batch solely depends upon the performance in Phase Test I, Monthly Tests & Weekly Tests. Similarly for Class XII students, special CM Sankalp Batch for top students starts mid April every year. The selection of the batch solely depends upon the performance in Phase Test I, Monthly Tests & Reshuffling Tests.

9. How FIITJEE is taking care of academically weak students?

At FIITJEE we have an activity called GOAL SETTING in which faculties plan the road map for students keeping their potential in mind. If students are not performing well in their respective batches, apart from specialized doubt sessions, we generally arrange REMEDIAL CLASSES in which any student from any batch can attend it on the given topic.

10. Are all faculty members in FIITJEE are IIT Alumni?

We have a pool of around 15-20 faculty members at Pune Centre who have been trained at our National Office in Delhi. They have been selected on basis of their academic mettle, conceptual clarity, capability to deliver in classes, smartness & confidence to take longer duration of lectures. We have a mix of very trained faculty lot passed out from IIT, NIT, IISER & other good universities in India.

11. What about Fee Refund Option? If the student is unable to cope up, getting transferred to a location where FIITJEE Centre is not there or not physically well to continue the course, does FIITJEE refund the balance fees?

There is no REFUND POLICY in FIITJEE as fee once paid will not be refunded in any circumstances. Once you have joined the course, the seat is allotted & if the student leaves in between the course or program, we can’t allot that seat to any student! Therefore, the parent has to forego the balance fees paid to FIITJEE in case of quitting the course. In such cases proper counselling & mentoring can motivate a student to continue the course rather quit it in the middle of the session!

12. FIITJEE Admission cum Scholarship Tests follow patterns similar to various competitive & scholastic exams. Why appearing in our Tests is extremely beneficial for you, even if you’re not targeting these exams?

Milestone Exams like NTSE, NSEJS, RMO & various Olympiads are not the target exams for every student. In fact, the success rate is quite low and only a selected number of students qualify for these exams. However, when students train for these exams, they are able to tread the path to developing a strong foundation and high analytical skills to solve tricky problems. This is extremely important for them to attain success in various streams (Arts / Commerce / Humanities / Engineering / Medical), careers and life. We have developed a scientific testing methodology wherein we are able to create our tests which are based on school-level syllabus & patterns similar to various competitive & scholastic exams. Thus, we do proper justice in discovering the current manifested potential of students.
