NAJMA A SALAM
AIR 442, UPSC CSE 2024
One-on-one sessions with Remya Roshni Ma’am and Arun Sir were immensely helpful during my UPSC Personality Test preparation. Given my medical background, they helped me explore and articulate other dimensions of my DAF — including my hobbies and interests like Malayalam literature — with clarity and confidence. Some of the questions suggested by Remya Ma’am were directly asked by the panel. For instance, the question on the influence of Bengali literature on Malayalam literature was something we had discussed in detail during our session. I’m deeply grateful for the insightful guidance and the fresh perspectives they provided.

AIR 36, UPSC CSE 2022
Amidst a host of people who suggested me to mechanise my personality test interactions (though the suggestions are partially valid), Remya ma'am and Arun sir gave a breath of fresh air. They asked me to be what I am, strike a good conversation and come out as a genuine person. Looking back at my personality test, I would like to thank them and Pathways Academy for showing a better path. I really hope that they will light up the journey of aspirants in years to come too.
