YASHWIN MAYYA

IIM Ahmedabad
“The repeated mock interviews and GDs normalised pressure. I stopped worrying about mistakes and started focusing on quality of responses. That mental shift helped me perform naturally.”

ANUSHREE MISHRA

“What I loved about Anastasis Academy is how they simplify preparation. Every class has a purpose, every assignment is targeted, and every strategy they teach is practical. I walked into the exam hall with clarity, calmness, and a plan. That feeling is priceless”
ISHA SHINDE

AKSHAT PAREEK
IIM Bangalore
“Arvind sir’s dedication is unmatched. He helps in streamlining answers, supports in writing SOP & guides at all stages in the process.

He changed the way I approached my interviews”

MRIDUL TIWARI
IIM Calcutta

EKANSH GUPTA
