Nineleaps, a Bengaluru-based product engineering firm has launched ‘ApnaIAS.com’, a digital platform that helps the aspirants to practice and improve their essay writing skills, providing them with extensive practice material along with prompt and relevant feedback of the submitted essays.
By practicing with ’ApnaIAS.com’, an aspirant can exponentially improve their writing and obtain skills that can be the deciding factor in their success.
Traditionally, an aspirant works in silos where they read upon and understand various topics, manually search for potential essays to practice with, attempt these essays, and finally, send it to an evaluator either online or offline and get delayed feedback with a time gap of about a week.

Additionally, this feedback does not deal with the specifics of what was good or bad and usually remarks on the attempt at a very high-level. It is also apparent that the aspirant is seldom satisfied with it due to a lack of clarity in the areas of improvement.
‘ApnaIAS.com’ was conceived to facilitate and make this process easier by bringing everything onto a single platform. It strongly believes that if an aspirant devotes time to practice essays, they can drastically make up for the marks that they tend to lose in their general studies papers due to the effort-saturation point.
“As an aspirant myself, I have on occasion, struggled to find someone who will give me detailed and pointed feedback other than the traditional “GOOD” or “BAD”. It was not helping me improve but rather added to my anxiety and frustration. ‘ApnaIAS.com’ provides 5 attempts for each essay with the intention of improvement. We believe that the feedback from each attempt will help you improve and see the difference instantly” said Vineet Punnoose, Product Manager, ApnaIAS.
