#1588 How BenchPrep brought technology to standardized test prep
Before Mixergy, I was a student like many of you. And in my car on the way to school, I would listen to SAT word recordings. I loved it. The problem is those books are such a pain in the butt to carry around. And I hate to sound like somebody who’d care about this stuff. But you look a little bit lame carrying a bunch of standardized test prep books.
Today’s guest had a similar view of the world. He said, “Why are all these books being lugged around? They’re so antiquated. There’s a better way. There’s technology. It’s been invented. Come on, get with it.” And he created a company.
Ujjwal Gupta is the founder of BenchPrep, a comprehensive learner success platform. He’s the guy responsible for creating a lot of the software that the ACT and other organizations are using. They’re white labeling it and using it for their students. I want to find out how he did it.
