You can come here for more help on your physics,
chemistry, biology and maths. The Webmasters promise to soon have
the non-scientific subjects like commerce, history, geography and
computers also represented. The site covers the syllabus from
class 5 to 12 of the Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh and Tamilnadu
boards, as well as the CBSC and ICSC. Once you make your

choice. The chapters and lessons in the books cover a wide range
of topics and also include question papers. The Java applets
which load up are attractive and informative but do take a while
to load. This will certainly increase your online time,
particularly as the entire information is only available online
at present and cannot be downloaded. Though you required to be a
registered user, you can always get in as a guest and still have
access to the whole site. A useful service here is that you can
post a question that bothers you and have students,teachers and
parents from all over the world answering your it. There is a
prize evey month for the best question and the best answer. Other
features include chat, discussion forum and community activities.Get more marks
