I am planning to go to india for studies (and maybe job ) but to do that i have to pass an exam . Don't get me wrong i am not excepting to ace the test by studying under a month ( while studying a whole lot of other subjects too ) I just want to (barely) pass . And i suppose living there would require hindi aswell because most people there won't . I tried duolingo aldready and it didn't do it for me for s couple of reasons:

They ( even i know this) spells a lot of letters wrong .
Seems too cash graby and justifying it as a game .
Overall i didn't like their way of teaching .
It seems like there isn't a person behind it you know too artificial .
And even though i selected the options for a complete noob they are expecting me to know lot of things .

Sorry if it turned into a rant . Thanks in advance for the answers . Also i didn't know where else to ask if there is an alternate more suitable sub just point me in that direction and i will move the post.ciao.

You are probably going to want a tutor that offers an intensive class, that can be done in a month, but you are still going to be looking at 50+ hours.

Do you know what level the exam is expecting?

I'd say high school level atleast in hindi . I can speak hindi like a four year old .

So you are at about an A1 and want to get up to around a B1? I don't like saying impossible but a month is not long at all. If you can already read it you might do better, just focus on the reading and writing skills, get some sample papers if you can.
