The live online tests for the 2027 Test Series begin on Saturday, 1 August 2026. Tests are held every Saturday from 5:00 pm IST.

There are 30 live tests in the cycle. They can only be taken on schedule and are not available afterwards, so anyone joining later starts from the next scheduled test.

The full list of what the Test Series includes, the fee, and the registration link are on the Test Series page. Registration stays open through the cycle. If you are enrolled in the Preparatory Program, the Test Series is included and you do not need to register separately.

Registration is open for Quantitative Foundations for Economics, a weekly live course beginning Sunday, 30 August 2026. Sessions run for 1.5 hours every Sunday, from 8:30 to 10:00 AM IST, for about 45 hours of lecture time across roughly 30 sessions.

The course covers logic and sets, real analysis, linear algebra, convexity and optimization, probability and statistics, econometrics, and R programming. Sessions are live only and are not recorded. The fee is ₹40,000.

Full details and registration are on the Workshops & Other Courses page.

Econschool now has a discussion forum at forum.econschool.in. It’s a place to ask questions, work through problems, and discuss economics — open to students at any level, not only those preparing for entrance exams.

Post your questions in Questions & Problems, and use General for study advice, introductions, and wider discussion. Announcements will carry notices like this one. The forum supports LaTeX, so mathematical questions and answers render properly.

Everyone is welcome to read; posting requires a free account. See you there.

Registration is open for the Preparatory Program for the 2027 intake of the ISI MS/PhD entrance in Quantitative Economics.
