AIM Lexicon
A workbook is a subject-based note-making book divided into daily assignments, with space for brainstorming, summarizing key points, and adding useful insights to improve understanding of important topics that must be completed within a set time frame.
An assignment is a UPSC Mains syllabus-based question requiring structured, research-driven thematic notes. Students get comprehensive solutions, explanatory videos, approach guidelines, and model answers. While assignments are not graded or evaluated, students can discuss them with mentors.
A weekly assessment test focuses on specific subject completed during that week. Its primary goal is to enhance answer-writing skills through practice. Each test comes with detailed solutions, video explanations, good answers to compare with, and mentor feedback for improvement.
