Edtech Physics Wallah (PW) is expanding its presence in Bengaluru with the tech-enabled new offline centre, PW Vidyapeeth. Students can secure up to 100 per cent scholarships through (Physics Wallah National Scholarship cum Admission Test) PWNSAT 2023 phase II, through which PW is offering scholarships worth 200 crores to meritorious students.  

The exam will be conducted in both offline and online modes and will be open to students from class 6 to 12, as well as droppers aspiring to study for JEE or NEET.

The PWNSAT exam will be held on the 3rd and 10th of December 2023 in offline mode, and students can take the exam until the 10th of December 2023 online. Registration for the exam can be completed through the PW website, app, or at the nearest offline Vidyapeeth centre. The results of the exam will be announced on 15th December 2023.

Ankit Gupta, CEO of Vidyapeeth Offline, PW, said that after COVID-19, the education paradigm underwent significant changes. Students now seek the advantages of both online and offline learning. 

“At PW, we believe in the hybrid approach as the way forward. By expanding our tech-enabled offline Vidyapeeth Centres across cities, our goal is to ensure access to quality education for students in their own towns, eliminating the need for them to relocate to education hubs in distant cities. To further support our students, we aim to give back and help them achieve their dreams of studying engineering or medicine through our PWNSAT exam.”
