A released paper mixes a whole term into one sitting. A week route does the opposite: it holds every question that one week has ever been asked, across every published year, with the solution a click away.

An IITM BS week wise PYQ is a previous year question filed under the week of the syllabus it was asked about, rather than under the paper it appeared in. Prasnya stores every IITM BS previous year question that way, so "Week 5 of Statistics 1" is an address you open, and what you find there is every question that week has ever been examined on, from every released paper at once, each with a worked solution rather than an answer key. You practise them one at a time and untimed. Check an answer and the reasoning opens underneath it; get one wrong and you can bookmark it, so it is waiting in the Vault when you come back. Within a week you can narrow further by question type, by difficulty or by year, which is how a revision session becomes "the hard numerical questions from this week" instead of all of them.

The weeks
Each row opens the subject with the deepest published coverage of that week. Every other subject carries its own copy of the same week, listed on the subject's page.
Counts are field-wide for that week. The later weeks are thinner because the released papers examine them less, not because the material is missing.
The route
Five steps, and the fifth is the one most revision skips.
Pick the subject, then the week you have just been taught. Every published question on it is already there.
Filter by question type — MCQ, MSQ and numerical answer — by difficulty, or by year. A week is often more than one sitting's worth.
No clock. The goal here is to understand the question, not to rehearse pace — that is what a timed test is for.
Check an answer and the worked reasoning opens beneath it, typeset rather than screenshotted, so you can follow each step.
A wrong answer is only useful if you come back to it. Anything you save waits in the Vault with its full context.
The solutions
Most freely circulated question papers come with, at best, a list of correct options. That tells you whether you were right. It does not tell you why you were wrong, which is the only part you can act on.
Every question here carries the reasoning written out. Where a question turns on a step people routinely skip, the solution says so. The mathematics is typeset rather than pasted in as an image, so you can select it, copy it into your own notes, and read it on a phone without pinching to zoom.
This matters more at week level than anywhere else. You are meeting these questions while the lecture is still fresh, so a solution you can follow closes the gap on the spot — before the week turns into a topic you avoid.
The two modes
| Week wise practice | Week wise test | |
|---|---|---|
| The unit | One question | One attempt |
| Clock | None | Timed, with a palette |
| Solutions | Open as you go | After you submit |
| Output | Understanding, and a Vault of what you missed | A scored report naming the weak topic |
| When | While you are learning the week | Once you think the week is done |
The syllabus
Every foundation subject runs Weeks 1 to 12 exactly as the course does. Open a subject to see its own week list.
Several subjects show more than twelve because a subject examined in both released paper sets has its weeks published under each.
The plans
One payment for one month of access.
Rs 67/month
Subject and week wise previous year questions, filters, bookmarks and the practice surface.
Rs 129/month
Adds qualifier, previous-year, subject-wise, section and week mocks with basic analysis.
Rs 149/month
Adds topic and subtopic mocks, unlimited starts, advanced analysis and question-by-question solution review.
The questions
Every part of the question bank has a page of its own. Pick the one that matches what you are revising.
Open it while the lectures are still fresh, work through every question it has ever been asked, and read the solution to each one you miss.
