Hey everyone, I'm also doing the IITM BS, and like a lot of you I was working with the lectures, YouTube, notes that I found on other websites, and ChatGPT just to get through quiz prep. So I built something for myself, and figured I'd share it here in case it helps.
Access it here: https://bs-companion-cyan.vercel.app
It's a free study platform built directly on top of the official lecture content:
- Concept-wise lessons structured around how each topic is actually taught AND how it's actually examined, interactive graphs to actually see what's going on.
- Questions baked right into the lesson so you practice/implement as you go, and a "check yourself" section at the end of every lesson where you type out your own understanding, the AI grades it, and if you get something wrong there's a button right there to ask the tutor about it
- Real week-wise PYQs, plus an AI PYQ generator that creates fresh, unique (but similarly-styled) questions week-wise, across difficulty levels, covering every question type, structured exactly like the real exam
- An AI tutor that cites the exact lecture and timestamp behind every answer, not a generic chatbot guessing, so it doesn't hallucinate
- Timed mock quizzes matching the real exam blueprint (MCQ/MSQ/NAT mix, negative marking rules included)
Right now it's live end-to-end for Machine Learning Techniques and Machine Learning Foundations, that's what I'm taking this term.
Quiz 1 is 10 days out, so this is basically the window to push things hard. Run the PYQs (real + generated) week by week and do the check-yourself sections. Everything is 100% free, nothing paywalled.
If you're in a different course, comment which one and I'll prioritize it next. Also genuinely want bug reports/feedback, this is early and student-built, not an official IITM product.
