Psychometric assessments and 1:1 expert sessions, online - built for students navigating CBSE boards, cut-off pressure and the Class 10 stream decision.
Delhi NCR students grow up inside the most competitive admission environment in the country: sky-high Delhi University cut-offs, dense coaching markets in Kalu Sarai and Noida, and schools where the Science-stream default goes unquestioned. The result is thousands of students each year choosing streams by peer pressure rather than fit.
Stride Ahead works the other way around. We assess first - interests, aptitude and personality through standardised psychometric tools - and only then guide. Sessions happen online, so a student in Dwarka gets the same counsellor quality as one in Gurgaon, without a commute.
Career guidance built for Delhi NCR
Built for the cut-off culture
When admission margins are decided by decimal points, choosing the wrong stream in Class 10 is expensive. We help families decide with evidence before the pressure peaks.
Assessment before advice
Every recommendation starts from a standardised psychometric profile - not from which coaching centre a neighbour recommends.
Online, without compromise
Live 1:1 sessions from home. No traffic across the NCR for a video call.
Three steps to clarity
Assess
A standardised psychometric assessment measures interests, aptitude and personality - 45 to 60 minutes, online.
Understand
A 60-minute 1:1 video session with an expert counsellor walks the family through the profile, plus a separate parent consultation.
Decide
Leave with a concrete direction: stream or degree, matched careers, and the pathway to each.
Pathways from Delhi
Institutions Delhi students target most often include University of Delhi, IIT Delhi, Jawaharlal Nehru University, Netaji Subhas University of Technology, Jamia Millia Islamia - and the right one depends on the career target, not the other way around.

In their own words
“I would like to thank the Stride Ahead team for helping my child in career clarity. Earlier she was really confused about the career option she could follow, but the approach used by Stride Ahead to analyse my child's potential was really helpful for her.”
Rajeev Wadhawan
Parent (Tanishka's father)
“The kind of guidance my son got from the Stride Ahead platform was tremendous. They used a different method of analysing my child first, before guiding him. Also the resources provided by Stride Ahead were really helpful.”
Dr Ratika Gandhi
Parent (Arnav's mother)
“I felt comfortable and confident from the moment I spoke to a Stride Ahead mentor. The assessments were the most helpful, showing me what suited me and breaking it down with ease. Without Stride Ahead I would still be confused with my career and never find one I truly have a passion for.”
Shivi Parihar
Class 12 student
“It was a very informative experience. The guidance advised by the mentor was thorough and up to the mark. I now have clarity about my career direction.”
