With the previous discussions, we have found some minor bugs and issues in the scholarX backend that needed to fixed. The requirements are mentioned below.

- Add a JSON response payload to DELETE endpoints
- Add a column for mentor application
- Rename questionnaire to the prerequisite
- Change the program state MENTEE\_APPLY to MENTEE\_APPLICATION

I created issues for these in the github repository. I’m working on these issues and I’ll use this thread for the updates and discussion

> Hello there, Since the API gateway task takes a few more days to get delivered and we are running out of time for the initial phase, building a mock server is essential to continue the frontend development. The requirement is to build a mock API server that is smart enough to simulate the real API. I thought of initializing this task, I’ll update my work with this thread.
