Smart families and ambitious students now understand:
“Early preparation is the new competitive edge.”
Starting in Class 9 allows students to:
- Build deep conceptual clarity before others even start
- Train the brain in problem-solving, logical reasoning & time management
- Develop an academic discipline that compounds over time
- Boost Olympiad & NTSE performance , which also strengthens JEE/NEET readiness
Think of it as laying the foundation for an engineering or medical dream with minimal pressure.
