FAQs

Q. What exactly is The Reading Room?

Ans. The Reading Room is a virtual library designed to help students stay consistent, accountable, and focused throughout their preparation journey.

It combines a structured study environment, a serious peer community, accountability systems, productivity tools, study marathons, and performance tracking into one platform. Rather than simply providing a place to study, The Reading Room is designed to help students overcome common challenges such as inconsistency, procrastination, distractions, poor time management, and a lack of accountability.

Its goal is simple: to help students stay committed to their preparation long enough for their efforts to produce meaningful results.

Q. Is The Reading Room available 24/7?

Ans. Yes. The Reading Room is available 24 hours a day, allowing students to study according to their own schedules and commitments.

Whether you prefer studying early in the morning, late at night, or throughout the day, you can access the platform whenever it suits your preparation. This flexibility ensures that students from different courses, colleges, jobs, or articleship schedules can study in a structured and focused environment at their convenience.

Q. Who can join The Reading Room?

Ans. The Reading Room is open to students preparing for competitive or professional examinations, university examinations, and other long-term academic goals.

Whether you are preparing for CA, CS, CMA, UPSC, SSC, CAT, NEET, JEE, government examinations, or are simply an avid reader, The Reading Room can help you build the consistency, accountability, and focus required to stay on track with your goals.

Q. Is there any talking or interaction during study sessions?

Ans. The Reading Room primarily operates on the principle of "Cameras On, Mics Off" so that the emphasis remains on collective presence and focused study rather than time-consuming interactions.

The only exception is when the Professor joins a session. During such interactions, students are welcome to turn on their microphones, ask questions, and participate in discussions.

The primary purpose of The Reading Room is to provide a productive study environment, not a social space. Students are encouraged to maintain a distraction-free atmosphere while still benefiting from the presence, accountability, and support of a community of serious learners.

Q.How is The Reading Room different from a normal library?

Ans. A normal library provides a place to study. The Reading Room provides an ecosystem that helps you stay consistent with your studies.

In addition to a structured study environment, students benefit from accountability systems, a focused peer community, productivity tools, study marathons, performance tracking, and healthy competition through the Phoenix Mode Dashboard—all from the comfort of their own rooms, while also saving the time and effort spent travelling to offline libraries.

Q.How do I get started?

Ans. Getting started is simple.

Scroll down and click on "Enter The Reading Room." You will be redirected to the Virtual Library page. There, scroll down and click on "Join Now."

Fill in your details, and you will receive the Meeting ID and Passcode required to access the virtual library through Zoom.

The most important step is simply showing up consistently and allowing the system to work over time.

Q. What if I join and lose consistency after a few days?

Ans. That can happen, and it is one of the primary reasons The Reading Room exists.

Most students do not struggle because they lack knowledge - they struggle because consistency becomes difficult over time. The Reading Room is designed to make it easier to get back on track through accountability, structure, and the presence of a focused community.

The goal is not to be perfect every day. The goal is to keep showing up, even after occasional setbacks.

Q. Do I need to keep my camera on?

Ans. Yes. The Reading Room primarily follows a "Cameras On, Mics Off" approach.

The purpose of keeping cameras on is to create a sense of collective presence and accountability. Seeing other students focused on their work often makes it easier to stay committed to your own preparation.

Q.Is mentorship available inside The Reading Room?

Ans. Mentorship is an optional paid feature. The core purpose of The Reading Room is to provide a structured environment, accountability, and a focused peer community. Students who require personalized guidance can choose to avail themselves of mentorship separately. 

Q.How does Daily Accountability work?

Ans. Daily Accountability helps students remain consistent by encouraging them to track and share their daily study progress.

Students are encouraged to update their study hours regularly, making it easier to stay accountable to themselves and the community. This simple habit creates awareness, promotes consistency, and reduces the chances of falling behind unnoticed.

Q.Can The Reading Room guarantee success in my exam?

Ans. While The Reading Room, like any other platform, cannot guarantee exam success, it can significantly improve your chances of clearing your examination - as many students have already experienced.

However, the system works only when you work with it. The key is to remain consistent, trust the process, and stay committed to your preparation. If you do, the odds are far more likely to be in your favour.

Q.Who benefits the most from The Reading Room?

Ans. The Reading Room benefits students who are serious about their goals and are willing to put in consistent effort towards achieving them.

It is especially helpful for those who struggle with procrastination, distractions, accountability, time management, or maintaining consistency over the long term. Students who embrace the system and show up regularly often experience the greatest improvements in their preparation and productivity.

Q.What if I have failed an attempt before?

Ans. Absolutely. In fact, many students join The Reading Room after experiencing a setback in their preparation.

A failed attempt does not define your potential - it simply highlights that something in the preparation process needs improvement. The Reading Room provides a structured environment, accountability, focused peers, and systems that can help you rebuild consistency and approach your next attempt with greater discipline and confidence.

What matters most is not the previous attempt, but what you choose to do from this point forward.

Q.Can I join if I'm preparing alongside college, articleship, or a job?

Ans. Yes. The Reading Room is designed to be flexible and can be used alongside college, articleship, a job, or other commitments.

Since the platform is available 24/7, students can study according to their own schedules while still benefiting from a structured environment, accountability, and a focused peer community. Many students use The Reading Room to make better use of the limited study time available to them each day.

The Reading Room Virtual Library has been a constant for me since I have joined it. It has been like the light at the end of the dark tunnel whenever I slipped into a low zone. It is a privilege to be a part of this library and get inspired everyday by every student who shows up and eventually states that consistency and discipline will definitely get us our respective ranks. The team has been wonderfully creative with respect to either with motivational quotes or with water reminders or with zoom hour ranking or with scoreboard maintenance reminders. These are literally the stepping stones I know I am climbing to reach towards success And the cherry on the top is our alchemist sir..so so so true to his name.. literally bringing the best out all of us. I wished for a mentor like you for a long long time sir and finally god has been kind to get me into this library so that I can get those amazing insights regarding preparation and life from you.. (P.S. – I know sir’s name is Vishal sir but to me he is always going to be Alchemist sir) It’s a privilege to be a part of this wonderful community and forever shall stay grateful that I stumbled upon this on google by chance ( or pure luck and destiny)

 Dr. Saloni Gupta

Heyy, I have been joining this virtual library for almost a month now, and honestly, it has become one of the best decisions for my preparation journey. I got to know about this platform through one of my friends. In the beginning, I joined just to explore how the library was, but after spending even one day here, I realized that this is the kind of environment every serious aspirant needs. The atmosphere here is incredibly motivating and positive. Watching CA, CS, UPSC aspirants, banking students, and many other hardworking people study with consistency automatically inspires us to stay disciplined and focused on our own goals. It creates a feeling that everyone here is growing together, supporting each other silently through their hard work and dedication. One of the best things about this platform is the target groups and scoreboard system provided by Vishal Sir. It helps us track our studies properly, maintain consistency, and somewhere creates a healthy competition that pushes us to improve every single day. Sometimes when motivation goes low, just seeing others working hard gives instant energy to get back on track again. And honestly, Vishal Sir deserves special appreciation. Sir is one of the most genuine, humble, and supportive mentors I have seen. He listens to every aspirant patiently, understands their struggles, motivates them, and guides everyone in the best possible way. The positivity and encouragement Sir brings into this platform make a huge difference in students’ preparation journeys. Sir, you probably don’t even realize how many students you are helping mentally and academically every single day. Sometimes just a few motivating words from you are enough to make students believe in themselves again and continue working hard. That impact is truly priceless. I genuinely feel that this platform is not just a virtual library — it is a community where students learn consistency, discipline, motivation, and self-belief together. I’m really grateful to be a part of it, and I hope many more aspirants get the same support and motivation that I received here. A heartfelt thank you to Vishal Sir and the entire community for creating such an amazing platform. Truly grateful.✨🤩😊

𝙈𝙮 𝙃𝙤𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙩 𝙍𝙚𝙫𝙞𝙚𝙬 𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙫𝙞𝙧𝙩𝙪𝙖𝙡 𝙇𝙞𝙗𝙧𝙖𝙧𝙮…

I still remember the day when I was randomly scrolling through my browser, looking for something productive that could help me in my preparation journey. At that time, I never imagined that one random search would completely change my routine, mindset, and consistency. Somehow, I came across IAS in Me Virtual Library, and honestly, joining this platform turned out to be one of the best decisions of my academic journey. It has been almost 1 to 1.5 years since I became a part of this virtual library, and the transformation I have seen in myself during this period is unbelievable. Before joining, maintaining consistency was one of my biggest challenges. I used to study for a few days with motivation and then lose track again. But after becoming a member of IAS in Me, my study hours gradually increased, my discipline improved, and I started understanding the true meaning of consistency. The environment of the library itself motivates you to sit, focus, and keep moving forward toward your goals. Like every student and aspirant, there were many moments when I deviated from my path. Sometimes due to stress, overthinking, distractions, or lack of motivation, I felt lost and disconnected from my preparation. But one thing that always helped me get back on track was the continuous guidance and support of Vishal Sir. His mentorship is not limited to studies only; his words genuinely inspire students to believe in themselves again. Whenever I felt low or distracted, his guidance gave me the push to restart with even more determination. What makes IAS in Me Virtual Library truly special is that it is not just a platform for studying; it is a place where discipline, dedication, and self-belief are built every single day. The positivity, hardworking atmosphere, and constant motivation here make students feel that they are not alone in this journey. I genuinely feel blessed and grateful to have access to such an extraordinary initiative. Thank you so much, Vishal Sir, for creating such an outstanding platform and for continuously helping students like us stay focused on our dreams. Your efforts, dedication, and vision are changing the lives of many aspirants. And for that we always grateful to you. Thank you..sir, your inconsistent student became consistent now😇😇 just because of you..☺️☺️

HI,
I’m Sneha Kundarnad preparing for my CA finals group 2, and I joined the Virtual Reading Room on 28th February 2026. It’s been over 1.5 months now, and I can genuinely say this experience has transformed my preparation journey and I wish to share my experience .

Staying alone in a PG, I always felt the need for a study environment where I wouldn’t feel isolated—somewhere I could stay accountable, focused, and guided. This virtual library gave me exactly that.

What truly sets this platform apart is Vishal Sir’s constant involvement. He joins live on Zoom multiple times a day, personally interacts with each student, checks on our preparation status, and even our well-being. That personal touch makes a huge difference. It doesn’t feel like just a library—it feels like having a mentor who is present with you throughout the day.

The daily tests at 3 PM, along with weekly 3-hour mock tests, have helped me stay consistent and exam-ready. More importantly, Vishal Sir doesn’t just point out mistakes—he guides us on how to improve, which is incredibly valuable.

There are days when motivation drops, and things don’t go as planned. But even a small interaction with Sir during those times feels very reassuring and uplifting—it brings back the energy to keep going.

Before joining, I used to study around 9 hours a day. Now, I consistently study 11.5 to 12 hours. The improvement in my discipline and consistency is clearly visible, and my preparation has significantly improved.

Another great aspect is how understanding and approachable Vishal Sir is. He doesn’t just focus on academics—he genuinely cares about students’ mental well-being and personal challenges. When we hear others sharing similar struggles, it creates a sense of connection and healthy competitiveness.

The study-hour tracking system (scoreboard) adds another layer of motivation. It pushes all of us to stay consistent and improve every day. Also, the students here are very sincere and dedicated, which naturally creates a focused and positive study environment.

Overall, this has been a very impactful experience for me, and I’m truly grateful to Vishal Sir for this initiative. I sincerely hope more students get to benefit from this wonderful platform.

Hi, I’m Neha, and this is my genuine review about this virtual library experience. There was a phase in my life when studying became mentally exhausting, not because I lacked goals, but because I lacked the right environment. As someone who studies from home, I constantly struggled with distractions, inconsistency, loneliness, and the absence of a proper study atmosphere. Every day felt like a battle between motivation and burnout. I knew I wanted to do better, but I simply did not have the ecosystem around me that could support serious preparation. That was when I came across this virtual library and honestly, joining it became one of the best decisions I have ever made as a student. What makes this platform truly special is that it is not just a virtual library. It feels like an actual community built for students who are trying to grow, improve, and stay mentally strong during their preparation journey. From the very beginning, I noticed how thoughtfully everything was designed. The Pomodoro study system helped me build consistency in a way I had never managed before. Earlier, I used to sit for hours without focus and still feel unproductive. But here, the structured sessions slowly trained my mind to concentrate better and study with discipline. What touched me the most, however, was the human support behind the platform. The mentors here do not just monitor attendance or study hours they genuinely care. There were days when I felt mentally drained, demotivated, or doubtful about myself, and somehow the mentors always knew how to encourage and motivate us at the right time. Their words, guidance, and regular check-ins create an environment where students feel seen, valued, and supported. Another thing that deserves immense appreciation is the safe and respectful atmosphere maintained in the library. The presence of a proper complaint cell mechanism, especially for women, reflects how seriously safety and comfort are taken here. In online spaces, safety often gets ignored, but this library has made it a priority, and that speaks volumes about the values of the people running it. The environment itself is incredibly motivating. When we log in and see so many hardworking students studying together, pushing themselves every single day, it automatically inspires us to give our best too. Even though it is virtual, the sense of discipline and positivity feels very real. What I appreciate most is that this library also acknowledges the importance of mental health. Preparation journeys can become isolating and emotionally overwhelming, especially for students studying remotely. But here, there is a constant sense that we are not alone. The mentors motivate us, the environment uplifts us, and the entire system silently reminds us to keep going. Today, when I look back, I realize this platform gave me something much bigger than study hours it gave me stability, consistency, confidence, and an environment where I could genuinely grow. For students preparing remotely, especially those who do not have a proper study environment at home, this virtual library is truly a blessing. It is not just a platform; it is a space every serious student deserves to experience at least once. I am genuinely grateful to be a part of this community, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to every student looking for discipline, motivation, support, and a healthy study environment.✨🤍

I Krishna Dhenia, preparing for CA Final examination, am taking some time to express my long-overdue gratitude to our respected Sir. To be honest, when I first joined this library, I had no expectations. I only hoped it would be genuine, nothing more. But I never knew God had kept such a blessing in store for me! Sir has been doing so much for the students in the library that at one point I felt there was no further scope for improvement. Yet the very next day, Sir would surprise us with a new target, an upgraded scoreboard, or something else entirely. Whether it was introducing the scoreboard, time utility, standard schedule, random tests, daily slots and many more things I have lost count of. Sir, you have always made me wonder how a person can be so generous, expecting nothing in return except our betterment and success. Truly, you are a gift from God to all of us. For me, this library and you as a mentor are like a birthday gift, because the very first call I received from your team was on my birthday. Since that day, I have been joining almost every day. With all that you do for us, succeeding in our respective exams is the least we can offer in return and we will. Being your students means demolishing our old selves and constantly striving for improvement, raising the bar each time.
Only because of your guidance, I have been able to push myself, did all that which I may not be able to if I was on my own.
The scoreboard has helped me identify my pattern and knowing the areas I really need to work on. Also through daily scoreboard I got the inspiration from the peers making me to put myself in the battlefield.
The random tests gave a reality check on the retention power and the ability to put them on paper if asked out of the blue. It helped me understand how I can improvise while preparing. The scheduled full test gave a deadline for completing and revising the syllabus and more importantly being confident after writing mock. As you always say focus on portion covered, revise it, be confident on that and then move upward. I was so stressed out thinking how will I cover this huge portion looking all at once. But after following your guidance I felt it was doable (especially for Audit). The heap gradually metled down. In the truest sense, you are the Krishna to Arjuns of this library. You are the backbone of this system. Aap hai to hum hai. Without you, the library would never be the same. We are deeply grateful to God and feel truly lucky to be part of this library. Kuchh to acche karm kiye honge humne Thank you so much for everything you do for us. In fact, “thank you” feels far too small compared to the magnitude of your efforts.

Forever grateful 🙏

To me, the reading room is not just a library it feels like a modern-day gurukul, where a mentor not only teaches but also enlightens, guides, and helps us understand both studies and the deeper dynamics of life. This platform has done much more than simply help me study. It has pushed me towards discipline, consistency, and awareness.  It helped me recognize my true potential, face my reality, and understand both my strengths and weaknesses. The accountability here is real, the discipline is real, and the guidance is genuinely impactful. I feel truly blessed and grateful to be a part of this platform. The level of understanding and dedication sir brings towards every student and every subject is truly unique.  Every doubt, fear, and misunderstanding is addressed with patience, positivity, and personalized and not generic. It is an amazing platform that inspires growth not only academically but personally as well.

I came across this virtual library during the last month of my CA Final preparation—a phase where I was honestly struggling to focus and stay consistent. Joining here changed a lot for me. Slowly, I could feel a shift in myself, both in terms of discipline and mindset. With sir’s regular guidance and support, I was able to clear one group in that very attempt. I am still connected with the library while I am preparing for the other group. What makes this place different is not just the studies, but the constant push to do better. Sir makes sure we stay motivated, give regular tests, and don’t lose track. The scoreboard system brings in a sense of healthy competition, which actually pushes you to increase your productive hours. And the time discipline framework was something that really helped me—it made me realize where I was lacking and helped me set better targets for myself. Sir has always asked me to give tests daily and evaluate my performance but I was not able to get myself to it. I was always reluctant to face the reality of my preparation. But once I started, it became a turning point. It gave me a reality check and, at the same time, slowly helped me build my confidence. There were so many moments when I felt like I wouldn’t be able to do it, but sir was always there to say, “You have all the capabilities, just give your best.” That belief made a huge difference. It helped me overcome my fears. I’m genuinely grateful for all the support, motivation, and guidance I’ve received here.
