Since national exam reforms in 2022, university entrance exam pass rates in Ethiopia have fallen to about 4.6%, pushing students to seek new preparation strategies.

One local ed-tech startup is focusing on structure, habit-building, and early guidance rather than last-minute cramming.

TikuretEntrance, , supports students from the start of high school with curriculum-aligned lessons, mock tests, and performance analytics tailored to Ethiopia’s education system.
