The coaching app built for speed-test success

SSC CGL, Bank PO, RRB, IBPS, SBI, LIC — these exams share a core characteristic: speed under pressure. A student who knows the concept but can't solve it in 45 seconds loses the exam. Your coaching app must reflect this reality. Four things that matter more here than in JEE/NEET/UPSC:

• Per-question timers — students need to see "Ideal time: 45s, your time: 1m 12s" on every practice question to build speed awareness.
• Speed-accuracy split — a student might have 85% accuracy but be 30% too slow. Analytics must show both metrics independently; fixing speed is different from fixing accuracy.
• Current Affairs + GA — General Awareness is 25% of most bank exams. You need daily current-affairs content, not just a static syllabus.
• Sectional cutoffs with negative marking — clearing individual sections is required. Mock tests must enforce sectional time-limits and show cutoff status per section.

SSC and bank exam prep often runs 8–18 months. Student engagement drops sharply after month 3. Institutes that keep students active through the full cycle have 3x better selection ratios. Igniter has three engagement mechanics built in:

Daily streaks. Every day a student solves at least one practice set, streak increments. Students lose their streak if they miss a day. Indian aspirants are competitive about streaks — our data shows students maintaining 30+ day streaks have 4x higher selection rates.

Institute-wide leaderboard. Not just mock rank — daily XP leaderboard where students earn XP for every practice set solved, video watched, doubt raised. The top 10 get badges visible on their profile.

Weekly peer challenges. Institute publishes a Monday 7 PM live quiz — 20 questions, leaderboard in real-time. Most SSC institutes running weekly challenges see student session length go from 25 min to 70 min on challenge days.
