I’d like to commend the centre for its well-structured curriculum and dedicated faculty. The instructors are approachable and always willing to clarify doubts. The study materials provided were comprehensive and aligned with the syllabus. I found the regular mock tests to be particularly helpful in gauging my progress and identifying areas that needed more focus. – Aditi Sharma

In my opinion, it is the best place for UPSC-CSE coaching in Eastern India. I’ve been studying here for a few months and the way they teach is amazing, especially topics that are hard to understand. Regular mocks on prelims and mains helped me to get over my phobia of exams and it also has helped me to develop long-term memory. The mentorship and guidance I got here have helped me tremendously in my preparations for UPSC. – Chirantan Gupta

I am Debanshu Dey. I am also a UPSC aspirant and Impulses student. I would like to share my experience with this coaching centre. Our sir Deb Mukherjee is really humble and kind-hearted and when questioned about his knowledge I would say that I am just his student I have no right to say about his knowledge. Thank you. ♥️- Tuku Dey

I have friends in other Kolkata institutes and also in Delhi it is class size, revision support, internal test quality, individual teacher support & study materials- I think I at IAS VISION have made a good choice because every institute lacks one thing or the other. Needless to say, the claims of successful students are mostly wrong, the institute will provide the structure- it is for me to complete the rest. for best ias preparation, ias vision deserves attention. – Momota Manna

I am a student here. This year I appeared in upsc cse prelims, and I found 49 questions from my classroom discussion, if 84 is cut off, I will pass prelims. To me, Ias Vision is one of the best ias coaching in Kolkata. – Ankita Rajbanshi
