I worked on designing a lightweight post-signup assessment funnel to address a key gap in user engagement. While the platform had strong acquisition, students and parents often dropped off after signup due to the lack of a clear next step.

THE SPARK

THE SPARK

  1. Context

CuriousJr is a learning app for school kids. While many people were signing up, most stopped using the app after the first day. This was mainly because parents — who decide whether to continue — didn’t fully understand how the app helped their child learn or what to do next.

While the app saw strong sign-up numbers, we noticed a key issue:

"Despite a healthy signup rate, users were quickly dropping off — with

nearly 0 conversions after 48 hours."

How might we re-engage passive users after signup and gently nudge them toward conversion — without making it feel like a sales funnel?

Before diving into specific use cases and screen-level interactions, let’s first walk through the two key pillars of this experience — the quiz starting screen and the result screen — which define the entry and exit points of the assessment journey.

Design Logic


  1. Completes Quiz

    & enrolled

User attempts all questions

On result screen, clicks "Enroll Now" CTA

Result screen shows:
•Score + feedback
•Booster recommendation

•Taps CTA → redirects to Booster purchase flow

•Builds trust before pitching
•Conversion happens at peak user motivation

  1. Drop-off Midway

User starts quiz but quits midway

•Homepage still shows “Test Your Skills” CTA
•On tapping, quiz starts from Q1 again

•As per SME's recommendation and the product requirement

•Quiz evaluation needed to be completed in one go
•Testing students accuracy across topics

  1. Completes Quiz, Doesn’t Buy

User completes quiz but not enroll into course

Result screen shows:
• Score + feedback
• Booster pitch (₹29 CTA)
• Exit option available

Still delivers full value
•Honors user’s readiness — doesn’t force next step
•Opens space for future retargeting (via notification, WhatsApp, etc.)

  1. Users who interacted with early assessments had 24% higher conversions

  2. Engagement dropped drastically when the homepage had no interactive content.

  3. Students are curious to “test themselves” if it’s short, game-like, and non-punishing

These insights validated the hypothesis: an engaging quiz + contextual course pitch could drive both retention and

conversions.

What This Proved

To make the quiz both engaging and cognitively accessible for students in Grades 1–8, we designed five distinct question formats. These formats were tailored not only to match the content type (text or visual) but also to ensure that children of varying reading levels and comprehension styles could confidently interact with the quiz.

A small, focused UX flow — when rooted in user psychology and behavior — can:

  • Drive meaningful engagement

  • Build trust before selling

  • Improve conversion without being intrusive

IMPACT & KEY LEARNING

IMPACT & KEY LEARNING

The quiz funnel was introduced as a lightweight, value-first engagement mechanism — not just to increase conversions, but to build trust with users before pitching any paid offering. Here's what it achieved:

  1. Users who interacted with early assessments had 24% higher conversions

  2. Engagement dropped drastically when the homepage had no interactive content.

  3. Students are curious to “test themselves” if it’s short, game-like, and non-punishing
