Student Guide

Stop studying harder. Start studying at the right thing.

Forge99 finds exactly which ideas are costing you marks, fixes them one at a time, and proves the growth with numbers. Here is everything students ask us.

What do I get for free, honestly?

A full diagnostic for one subject: 12 board-style questions that adapt to you, in about 10 minutes. You get a personal report that names your exact misconceptions, shows which chapters are leaking marks, and gives you a 7-day and 30-day plan. Day 1 of that plan, a complete Concept Clinic session on your weakest concept, is also free. No card, no catch.

How is 12 questions a real diagnostic?

Because they adapt. You start at application level; do well and the questions climb to board HOTS level, struggle and they step down to find your footing. Each answer also asks how sure you were. Getting something wrong confidently means you trust a wrong rule, and that is worth more to know than ten more practice sheets. The questions are written to real CBSE patterns and each wrong option maps to a specific, known mistake.

What is the Concept Clinic?

A one-on-one session with an AI tutor that rebuilds one broken concept at a time. It starts from something you already understand, builds the idea up with you, makes you explain it back in your own words, and finishes by connecting it to exactly how the board asks it. It never just hands you answers, and it will not do your homework. One concept, properly fixed, every session.

I already have coaching and YouTube. Why this?

Coaching teaches the syllabus to forty students at once. YouTube explains things you select yourself. Neither one knows which specific ideas YOU have wrong. Forge99 starts by measuring exactly that, then spends your time only where the marks are: your weakest high-weightage concepts first. Thirty focused minutes here beats two passive hours of watching someone else solve problems.

What does the paid plan actually add?

Student Pro at 299 a month unlocks every subject for diagnostics, 40 Concept Clinics a month (up to 3 a day), re-diagnostics every 14 days so you can watch your number move, mock exams, and flashcards with spaced repetition. Your parents get their own free dashboard and updates included, no separate fee. Student Max at 799 raises the limits for heavy preparation season: 100 clinics a month, 8 mock exams, unlimited flashcard reviews, priority support.

Why can I not retake the diagnostic immediately?

Because re-measuring after two days mostly measures your memory of the questions, not your learning. The 14-day gap exists so your retake shows real growth. Your first score is the before photo. The retake is where you see the line move, and that number is honest because we made you wait.

Will it tell me to study 10 hours a day?

Never. The whole model is built on the opposite idea: deliberate, focused pressure beats heroic slogging. The 7-day plans are about 30 minutes a day, aimed by your own data at exactly the right concept. Sessions are bounded on purpose; cramming has no home here.

Can my parents see my chats?

No. Parents see your progress: mastery per subject, your diagnostic reports, and how your numbers move. They never see your clinic conversations. You link a parent yourself with a code from your profile, and only if you share it.

What if I pay and regret it?

Every paid plan has a 7-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked. And your free diagnostic, reports, and progress stay yours forever either way.
