Awesome Indian Exams ⚡¶
हिंदी में पढ़ें → शुरू करें · आज का सवाल · Question of the day · No internet? Offline copy
Free, evidence-gated preparation maps for India's most-attempted competitive exams: GATE, ESE, JEE, NEET, UPSC, state PSCs, SSC, RRB, IBPS/SBI/RBI, defence, CTET/NET, CUET, CLAT, CAT and more.
Coaching can cost lakhs. The information you need to start (official patterns, syllabi, previous papers, free courses) is free, but scattered and often reposted wrong. This list gathers it in one place, links only to the source, and tells you honestly how well each page has been checked.
Most exams share most of their syllabus. SSC, railway and banking exams largely overlap. JEE, NEET, state CETs and CUET share NCERT science. UPSC and the state PSCs share general studies. So this list is built from shared modules: prepare a module once and see every exam it counts for in the overlap map.
It is updated every hour by an open agent pipeline (the hive). Every change is public and comes with a receipt. See UPDATES.md.

Evidence status: ✅ official = checked against the official notification · 🟡 secondary = cross-checked against multiple non-official sources, official check pending · ⚪ unverified = starting list, not yet checked. Whatever the status, confirm with the official notification before you apply or pay a fee.
How this list stays correct¶
- Official sources only for exam facts: notifications and brochures on government, university, IIT and exam-body domains (allowlist).
- Every page states its evidence status, and a page is marked ✅ only when there is evidence that the official document was opened. In the cloud hive, the code records every page the agent fetched, and a page is not accepted as ✅ without a recorded fetch of an official source.
- No piracy: no coaching notes, book scans or lecture transcripts, and no Telegram or Drive dumps.
- A content gate runs on every change (
scripts/validate.py). It rejects missing sources, non-official links under "Official sources", file-dump links, broken internal links and dates in the future.
