Our Mission

To democratise competitive exam preparation in Bangladesh by offering world-class MCQ and written exam tools — free or affordable — so no talented student is left behind because of geography or income.

Our Vision

A Bangladesh where every student who walks into a BCS, bank, or admission exam hall is fully prepared. We want to be the study partner that millions of students trust before the most important exams of their lives.

Our Values

Honesty in our content, relentlessness in quality, empathy for students under pressure, and constant iteration based on what learners actually need — not what's convenient for us to build.

How It Started

Built by students,
for students

Our founders were BCS aspirants who experienced first-hand how hard it was to find reliable, organised exam preparation resources in Bangladesh. Textbooks were expensive, coaching centres were city-centric, and online platforms were mostly designed for other countries.

So we built what we wished had existed: a platform that combines a rich question bank, smart analytics, written exam practice, live exam schedules, and video courses — all in one place, in Bengali and English, accessible from any device.

Today, 28+ students trust ShikkhaGuru to prepare for BCS Preliminary, BCS Written, bank officer exams, medical admission, and more. We're just getting started.
