When to use it
Send it to every enrolled student about a week before the batch starts, and again the evening before day one. It answers the questions every new student asks the office, in one message. For minors, send it to the parent's number as well.
Best time to send. Seven days before the start, with a short repeat the evening before the first class.

Tips
- List exactly what to bring. 'Stationery' is vague; 'two notebooks and a calculator' is followed.
- Create one WhatsApp broadcast list per batch, so batch-specific changes reach only the right students.
- Only send it to fee-paid or enrolled students; for leads, write a separate admission message.
Variations
Shorter or warmer versions of the same message.
Hi Sana, your JEE Foundation batch starts Monday 7 April, 5 pm, Room 3. Bring two notebooks and a calculator.
