 Introduction

The goal of this document is to give description of Vocabulary Builder. This project is used to
provide facilities to the registered users such as to attempt exam of particular category such as GRE,
IELTS, GMAT etc through which user can develop their vocabulary. It is useful for students aspiring
for these exams, it is also useful for professionals, employees and anyone with desire to develop
their vocabulary.

Traditional practices for vocabulary building includes reading big fat dictionaries, books etc.
This approaches are not very efficient and interactive to user. For a student appearing for certain
exam may not be able to read whole dictionary as it consist of all the words in the language and not
organized to that specific exam. User have to refer different materials for different exams. These
traditional approach may not provide a way for user to test their knowledge of what they’ve learnt.

Our project introduced an interactive way for user to learn and build their vocabulary on the
go. User don’t need to carry heavy books they just need a browser and internet connection to access
this application. Our application has organized structure for different exams. Each section of exam
consists of words that are related to that exam. Accessing only this single application user can
prepare for all the exam and won’t have to look for anywhere else as it is the one stop solution. User
can test their vocabulary knowledge and challenge themselves while learning and building their
vocabulary at the same time.

Other than just directly learning and testing their vocabulary our project also provide user to
maintain a personal dictionary of words that user failed to answer correctly in exam or user is weak
at. User can refer to this dictionary and strengthen their weak areas.
