Procurement of study material

As suggested by Pradeep, there is a need to give the outgoing students access to study material. I remember, that when we were passing out, there was Brilliant tutorials material in the department. It may be too outdated today. Regarding the previous year question papers, it is more convenient for our alumni who are studying in these institutions. I request Premananda and Arun to procure the previous year question papers of IISc, JNCASR and NCBS. Based on this, I have following proposals:
1. Procurement of GATE, CSIR material from Brilliant tutorials.
2. Procurement of GRE/ subject GRE material.
3. Procurement of previous year question papers of IISc, NCBS and JNCASR.
4. If possible compilation of questions from GATE and CSIR by the current students after writing the exams ( from their memory)
5. A data base of excellent review papers from top journals for the benefit of the members.

I shall discuss with the alumni in Europe (Kanth, Saiki, Bharath, Shibu, Bala Sai, Pradeep, Tarini, let me know if I have missed anyone) about the option of buying the GRE, CSIR and GATE material.

I request Malli, Sujith, Vennel Raj or Candy to inform us about the costs of the Brilliant tutorials and their procurement.
