We The Mind's TIFR Track turns Real Analysis dread into a well-ordered study plan. Practice original, GS-style problems across Analysis, Algebra, and Topology, break a wax seal to check your reasoning, and grab our free, official-source index to real past papers — because guessing the syllabus shouldn't be part of the syllabus.
Four reasons this is worth adding to your study group — no linear independence required to see it.
Pick your answer, then break the seal to check it. Committing before you peek is how real exam pressure actually works.
Every solution opens with the underlying theorem or technique — Sylow's theorem, uniform continuity, residues — so you learn the "why" first.
A free, direct index to TIFR's own past-paper archive — no third-party scans, straight from the source.
Your progress saves automatically, so your prep compounds like a well-chosen sequence — monotonic, and bounded above by "ready."
A quick, honest map of what you're actually walking into — sourced from TIFR's own published exam pattern.
| Stage | Format | Who It Counts For | Marking |
|---|---|---|---|
| Part A | Objective — single correct option out of four | Everyone, incl. Integrated PhD at CAM Bengaluru | +2 correct, −1 incorrect |
| Part B | Subjective / short written answers | PhD & other programs (not required for I-PhD at CAM) | +2 correct, −2 incorrect |
| Interview | In-person / online academic interview | Shortlisted candidates from the written stage | Qualitative |
Eleven original, GS-style problems across the three subjects most heavily tested. Pick an answer, then break the seal for the concept, the full solution, and a reference for going deeper.
A few notes from students who broke a seal or two. Names changed. Epsilon of exaggeration removed.
I finally understand why Sylow subgroups matter, instead of just memorizing the counting formula. Big difference in the interview.
The residue-theorem problem alone was worth it. I stopped fearing contour integrals somewhere around seal number four.
Linking straight to TIFR's own past papers saved me from three sketchy PDF downloads. Ten out of ten, no negative marking.
Every past-paper link, every practice problem, and every upcoming video lesson — all free, no hidden constant of integration.
Or, as we call them, the union of everyone's questions minus the overlap.
We The Mind — TIFR Track — original practice problems, not reproductions of any official exam. Real past papers live free via the official TIFR index above. Set your own pace, break a seal only when you are ready.
