What makes ILP (Offline) so special?

Well! The answer to this question are many. But before we answer that question, let us tell you something about the values we believe in. Quality of guidance, sincerity in efforts and innovation in pedagogy are our core values. We strive hard to integrate these values in our packet of offerings to the student community, something that is clearly visible in our initiatives like ILP, AIPTS, C2C, TLP, DNA and so on. As a result of the success of these flagship initiatives, we started getting requests from many aspirants to move into the offline domain with similar quality, sincerity and innovation. In our effort to meet these demands, we came up with the offline classroom programme.

The last three years of this programme have attracted students from different parts of the country (from 22 States) and the number of enrolments have been increasing year by year.

This program is meant for those who have completed 0% of syllabus yet determined to succeed in the first attempt itself.

Our flagship program ILP OFFLINE is designed to help freshers learn from first principles and build strong basics. This approach helped our students solve several confusing/ambiguous questions of Prelims 2017, 2018, 2019.

We believe in smart work. Our classes and materials guide aspirants to get the best results with minimal time and effort.

ILP Offline provides end to end integrated preparation with tests, discussions and quizzes modelled in the programme. Highly focused and minute module planning helps you to prepare your syllabus in an integrated manner by the end of March 2020.
