โ€œWe came to Dr. Gupta when our daughter was in 10th grade, completely confused about whether to take Science or Commerce. The MBTI assessment and career counselling sessions gave her clarity we couldn't provide as parents. She's now pursuing Computer Science at a top US university โ€” a path she wouldn't have discovered without the psychometric testing.โ€
