Data availability is no longer a challenge in the digital age. A simple Google search can open gateways to knowledge and information, which was not the case a few years ago. Furthermore, data sharing has become more accessible than ever too. However, more than the quantity of data, the quality of information matters the most, especially for students preparing for competitive exams.
In the context of coaching institutes and educational institutions, quality data available is required for achieving targets. For instance, the coaching institutions preparing students for competitive exams would want to ensure that such good quality content is supplemented with other factors that help the aspirants attain their goals.
