From campus to competition

At Navodaya, your teachers knew you by name. In a batch of hundreds, nobody will.

Large coaching batches are where promising students quietly get lost — attending every class and collecting every module, while a weak chapter goes unnoticed and confidence fades. Pramana is built the other way round.

At Pramana, no student goes unseen.

  • Batches of 40, at mostWritten into your admission letter.
  • A named mentor for every 20 studentsA 15-minute one-on-one every week.
  • A progress report to parents every fortnightChapter mastery, test trend, attendance and the mentor's notes, on WhatsApp.
  • Top IITian and experienced faculty for every studentEvery batch is taught by the same teachers.
  • One learning model: Cognitive-Rooted MasteryAwareness → Understanding → Application → Reflection.

Questions

Frequently asked.

Can't find your answer? Talk to us.

What is Pramana Uday?

Pramana Uday is a dedicated admission and scholarship test for Navodaya students preparing for JEE or NEET. It identifies your academic potential, and strong performance can make you eligible for a scholarship under Pramana's scholarship policy.

Can current and former Navodaya students take part?

Yes — both current and former Navodaya students can take part, from Class 9 to Class 12-pass. Please bring your JNV ID card or school leaving certificate to the interview.

I'm on campus without a phone. How do I take the test?

The test window runs through the Diwali vacations (31 Oct – 15 Nov 2026), so you can book a slot while you are home and take the test on a family phone or computer with a camera. Your practice access works the same way — use it whenever you are home.

I live far from Indore. Do I need to travel?

Not for the test — you take it online. Eligible students come to our Indore centre once, after their board exams, for the in-person counselling-cum-academic interview that confirms the scholarship.

Is the test online or offline?

Online. You take Uday on Pramana Abhyas — the same platform you practise on after registering. The test is live camera-monitored, so you'll need a device with a working camera and a stable internet connection. A smartphone or laptop with a working front camera, a stable internet connection, a charged battery and the latest Chrome browser.

What does the free practice access include?

One year of access to Pramana Abhyas: learning gap analysis, a personalised study plan, chapter-wise tests, JEE and NEET previous-year papers with trend analysis, and a real-time performance dashboard. It unlocks as soon as you complete registration.

Which subjects are tested, and for how long?

90 minutes, 40 questions: 30 subject questions based on your goal (JEE: Physics, Chemistry, Maths · NEET: Physics, Chemistry, Biology · Class 9–10: Maths, Science) and 10 aptitude questions. Marking is +4 / −1.

Is there a registration fee?

No. Registration is free, and includes one year of practice access.

How will the scholarship be decided?

In two stages. Your Uday performance decides your eligibility. The scholarship is then confirmed after an in-person counselling-cum-academic interview at our Indore centre, held after your board exams and before admission. Up to 10 top performers who meet Pramana's qualifying criteria receive free coaching plus free hostel and meals in Indore, and up to 10 more who qualify receive free coaching. These awards go only to students who meet the criteria, so they may not all be given. Others can earn Platinum (100%), Gold (75%), Silver (50%) or Merit (25%) tuition scholarships for the full programme.

What happens after the test?

You receive your result and understand your strengths and the areas that need improvement. After your board exams, eligible students are invited to an in-person counselling-cum-academic interview at our Indore centre, where the scholarship is confirmed and admission is discussed. You see your score and gap report right after your test; ranks and scholarship levels are announced on 29 November 2026.

Can I register if I haven't chosen between JEE and NEET?

Yes. Pramana prepares students for both JEE and NEET. Choose "Undecided" when you register, and we can talk it through with you and your parents after the test.

Where is Pramana located?

2nd Floor, Victory Chamber, 4A-Ratlam Kothi, AB Road (Geeta Bhawan Square), Indore, Madhya Pradesh 452001.
