Hello all!! This is Suven Jagtiani writing this blog. I am a student studying in std. 9 .I have not joint any normal  coaching classes for maths and science ever in my life. But my first coaching class for maths and science was unique and very different. Yes, this coaching class was BYJU's- the learning app.... [The name itself is so cool, isn't it?] But let us see that whether the teaching of   Byju's   is also as attractive as it's name ?? My EXPERIENCE with BYJU's : I had bought a course of byju's back a couple of years ago. They gave me a SD card and I even bought a tablet from them in which I could put the SD card and watch their videos. The videos were nice and cool!! The teachers in the video also speak quite clearly which is required while watching an educational video. The teachers even have proper voice modulation.  But the thing which was different were the animations. Diagrams popping out, definitions coming, structures of plants an

Hello all!! This is Suven Jagtiani writing this blog. I am big fan of cricket. I observe cricket very closely and even the behavior of players. Over the years, I have observed 1 cricket player on whom I had to write this article not due to the way he plays but due to the kind of person he is. Yes, this cricketer is Suresh Raina. In this article, you are going to know about the struggles that Suresh Raina faced when he was young, some of his best moments on the cricket field and many more things about him. Early STRUGGLES Very rarely do we get a heading in an article of a sports person as " Early struggles" but such was Suresh Raina's life. The Train Incident Only 13, Raina was traveling to Agra with a bunch of teenagers. To cope up with the winter cold, Raina was wearing his cricket kit, sleeping over a newspaper. Soon he felt a weight on his chest and before he could react, a big kid stood on his chest and started urinating on his face. Raina revealed

Hello all!! This is Suven Jagtiani writing this blog. I have just entered my 9th grade and was feared by my seniors who told me that don't you know that 9th is more tougher than the 10th grade. I was surprised by the statement and I told "WHAT?" Because I see students so much tensed during their 10th's and these seniors of mine are scaring in my 9th.  So then, after gathering all my might I decided to write this blog on why do school studies seem to become tougher in 9th grade.......  What is the difference in "THE 9th GRADE" ? When I entered 9th grade I thought that it was much more different that the previous standards. So, let's see that what were the differences: What ever I learnt was more application based rather the factual based information that I got in previous standards. Rote learning will have no place in your study in 9th grade[Sorry, you rote learners,no place for you] I am a student studying in the SSC board and the kinds

Hello all!! This is Suven Jagtiani writing this blog. As you know I am a CRAZY Indian cricket fan, there is no point in me not loving the best Indian batsman of the modern era. But still I am not convinced that Virat Kohli is the best batsman of the world.[What??] After reading this,you would criticize me a lot but sometimes truths are very bitter and this one case where the truth is bitter. So let us see, why this is true ?  VIRAT'S  STRENGTHS Yes, Virat has many strengths[You would be happy reading this]. So, what are his strengths ?? He has a very good footwork due to which he is a very good batsman against spin. He also reads spinners very well and therefore he does not have any major weaknesses against variations in spin. He has no problem in hitting boundaries ,so he is also a very good hitter and this is even true because he has a very good strike rate for a no. 3 batsman even in T20's. He is even a very good batsman against fast bowling [but has some tec

Hello all!! This is Suven Jagtiani writing this blog. I am presently studying in 9th grade and unlike others I love giving exams. So, some years back I appeared in a competitive exam just for the sake of giving an exam. And now, some years passed on and I am giving these exams not just for the sake of it but with many more aspirations and preparations. So, now after so many years I thought that  I must help you decide whether these competitive exams are useful or not?  So, for coming to the answer in a better way I thought of taking the interview of a very senior teacher from my school regarding this topic: > 1) Do you think that schools must conduct private competitive exams? > Yes certainly. Here a student does not confine himself to competing only with his school mates but with other students of his level. He moves out of his comfort zone. He learns a little more than his text book. Today admissions to most of our professional courses are based on entrance exams.  " 

Hello all!! This is Suven Jagtiani writing this blog. I am a student studying in 9th grade. When I had taken my admission  in school, there was a trend that parents only used to admit their children in schools which were near their house. But now the trend has changed and parents are comparing schools with the board which the schools follow. Many boards have now come up in India and parents have now become spoil for choices. So I decided that is IGCSE , India's one of the most expensive boards really worth it ?? This blog will even tell you that whether it is right to know the quality of the board with the fees that it takes. So, for answering this question, I first took the interview of Ms. Kavita Sukhani ,(Presently head of NEXT School  , Mulund(West) , and has been IGCSE Coordinator at  ECOLE MONDIALE WORLD SCHOOL, Mumbai ), and got some wonderful inputs. Initially, those who are just un-aware of  the IGCSE board, make sure of visiting  their website here . 

In the past, bowlers used to take wickets but now bowlers are becoming more useful as batsmen!! Hello all!! This is Suven Jagtiani writing this blog and needs more of your support to write such more blogs. I am a big follower of cricket and I hope even you are. I have been watching cricket from a lot of years and I have even seen the average totals of teams getting higher year after year. Batsmen are hitting bowlers out of the park more easily. All this leads us to the question that is cricket getting more tough for the bowlers?? ANALYSIS ON THE QUESTION Over the years, cricket boundaries have come more inwards or in other words the radius of cricket stadiums is reducing.[What is this leading to?] This is leading to batsman hitting more boundaries and scoring runs has become more easy. The force with which the bat hits the ball also depends upon the bat's thickness or depth.The thickness of bats used by batsman has also increased in this modern age.[ But you can even then

Hello all!! This is Suven Jagtiani writing this blog. Being an Indian, I am a big fan of both cricket and MSD. The former Indian captain has won hearts of many cricket fans and surely I am one of them. So today, we are going to discuss the question whether Hardik Pandya can become the next MS Dhoni? DHONI'S INABILITIES??  In the past few years we have seen that MS Dhoni is not able to finish matches as frequently as he used to do before. We all know that he is still the smartest cricketer on the cricket field but have his batting skills dipped? The answer to this question is NO. It's not that his batting skills have dipped but bowlers have become smarter against him. Dhoni has a very predictible batting technique and he does not have the kind of dynamic shots that possibly AB Devilliers or Glen maxwell have and bowlers have taken advantage of this. Bowl Dhoni a length ball or a ball which is very full, then you will find the ball only in the stands but if the ball

Yes you read it right!! I had met Virat Kohli. The morning was very shiny and bright and the moment I got up, I had a gut-feeling that today is going to be a very lucky day for me. And my gut-feeling was totally right. The newspaper was there on my hall's table and the headlines flashed that VIRAT KOHLI  had arrived in Mumbai last night for a shoot of an advertisement for PUMA.[You would be knowing that Virat Kohli has signed a 100 Cr. deal with PUMA] I went mad but there was no mention of where the photo shoot was going to happen. I told this news to my father and then after the morning tea we went for a walk at the R.C.F. R.C.F is a colony and it  has a very big ground. We were passing by the ground and we saw some people in the ground playing a cricket match and there were cameramen and reporters all around that place. We asked some people outside the ground about what was happening in the ground. They told " Arre Virat Kohli khel raha hai andar".  We were lik

Hi all !! this is Suven Jagtiani writing this blog. I am a student studying in 9th grade.I was in my chemistry class and learnt this brilliant phenomenon of triple point. So I came up with this blog to explain the interesting concept of triple point of chemicals. WHAT IS TRIPLE POINT? Triple point is basically the temperature and the pressure at which a substance can exist in all the three states of matter.[What??] You would be knowing that temperature can affect the state of matter of a substance.Even pressure has this ability to change the state of matter of a substance. So, triple point does not only depend upon the temperature but also on the pressure. WHY DOES THE TRIPLE POINT EXIST?[I will take the example of water] The triple point is there because that is where the three phases (solid, liquid and vapour) of a substance can coexist in thermal equilibrium with one another. At all other temperatures[with normal pressure] only two (or one) phases can co-exist t

Hi all !! this is suven jagtiani writing this blog.  I am a sincere student studying in 9th grade. I am in a school which follows the the SSC board. Sometimes My cousins and friends  pull my legs telling me that how can I learn from a board like SSC because they followed the syllabus of CBSE and ICSE[which they considered to be much better and difficult than SSC]. This made me feel that is the SSC board really so bad?   So after 9 years studying in SSC, I thought of writing this blog to explain you about the differences in the so called "INDIAN BOARDS". CBSE [Central board of secondary education] IS THIS BOARD PRESCRIBED BY OUR GOVERNMENT REALLY GOOD? CBSE board is very popular for it's NCERT books and every expert would tell you that all competitive entrance exams are based on CBSE, but let's see the real truth: PROS :  The syllabus and books of CBSE board is very well designed. Science and Maths are well explained in NCERT books. The b
