'Thumb Culture’, it is a term used for the younger generation who constantly keep typing messages without a break, using thumbs. Now parents can ease their fears of ‘Thumb Culture’ eating into children’s study time. They might just be using it to prepare for their upcoming CET or IIT entrance papers.
A new concept that looks into providing practice papers for students aspiring for engineering or medical courses on mobiles will be launched on Friday, by Bangalore-based companies. The concept is simple: Download a software called ‘Mplg’ (www.ipomo.in). Pay the subscription fee of Rs 275 for three months at the nearest SBI branch in the name of Ipomo Communications India Pvt Ltd.
Get the unique code or the ‘Journal Number’ and enter it along with your name, age and email ID on your mobile, using the software and you will be ready to access the test question papers prepared by reputed houses of learning. Scorecards are immediately updated and students can evaluate their own performance.
Creator of the software Mplg, Ipomo along with BASE and ACE in a unique venture, have started a time based testing system on mobile platform to help students prepare better for their CET and IIT entrance examinations.
The software provided by Ipomo, a company founded last year, will give students an opportunity to take practice tests in various subjects prepared by city-based educational training organisation BASE and ACE, for the upcoming entrance tests to be held in the next three months.
While the IIT course test papers will be available from Friday, CET practice papers will be up for students from April 1 2009.
