Underscoring its presence in the field of education, Scoreplus organised a “National Test Fest” at Doha College recently. The first event of its kind allowed over 400 students from grades 3 to 12 to challenge themselves and recognise their potential for their next academic level.
The event focused on enhancing student motivation, fostering academic agility, and increasing responsiveness on core skills in math and English, which, as per the country director, Pradeep Singhal, are critical for the academic challenges of the college.
Singhal elaborated: “Success in college admission is directly linked to success in high school. While your standardised test scores play a major role in admissions, a strong academic performance is crucial to your acceptance.”
Recognising this fact, StudyPlus, a new venture between ScorePlus and Pearson Education, offers academic courses for British, American and Indian curriculum students. StudyPlus is designed to not only boost students’ subject skills, but also fix core knowledge gaps.
To help students who aspire to get into prestigious educational institutes in India like NITs and IITs, StudyPlus provides the CBSE Advanced Programme, which integrates the CBSE core curriculum with advanced JEE-level content.
“CBSE curriculum doesn’t equip students for the application-based demands of tests like JEE and SAT, .actually this is about understanding how operations work, not just remembering pages merely,” said Varun Pamarthy, an IIT Kanpur alumni and trainer at StudyPlus.
“With our new CBSE advanced programme for grades 7-11, which starts from April 4, we foresee more students from Qatar cracking these tough competitive examinations with ease,” he added. “The grade point improvement and students’ success speaks of integrity of the programme,” said Pradeep.
Among its recent successes is Rishav Chakravarty, who proved the worth of preparation at Studyplus by securing admission in Birla Public School Pilani (Vidyaniketan) — sixth best residential school in India as per Educational World Rankings.
American school of Doha, Michael E DeBakey HighSchool and Georgetown University school of Foreign Service in Qatar are some of the institutions working with Scoreplus.The Peninsula
