The platform continuously analyses progress and automatically assigns question sets across three levels, Beginner, Intermediate and Excellent, which are aligned to the learner’s aptitude.More than 20,000 questions, vetted by expert teachers, have been integrated into the portal, alongside extensive mock tests to simulate real exam conditions.The first phase of subject training, now live, includes Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Botany, Zoology, Economics, Accountancy, Business Studies and Political Science. The second phase, beginning February 25, will introduce modules in English, Reasoning and General Awareness.Schools have been instructed to ensure wide participation, including outreach through Parent-Teacher Associations. Students of Classes XI and XII can access the platform at www.entrance.kite.kerala.gov.in using their Higher Secondary or Vocational application number as the User ID, with passwords generated by school principals or nodal teachers.Detailed user manuals and video tutorials are available online. Beyond digital access at home, schools have been directed to provide on-campus facilities for students lacking devices or internet connectivity.Sessions are also broadcast on the KITE VICTERS channel and archived on its YouTube platform, reinforcing Kerala’s push to blend public education with scalable, AI-enabled learning infrastructure.
