Tutorials buy, borrow or steal IIT toppers success

Engineering Entrance ,

For the painfully shy Prudhvitej Immadi , cracking the competitive IIT entrance test has had one downside.About two years ago, a coaching class spammed its notes to Prudhvitej — the IIT-JEE 2011 topper who, at 16 years, is perhaps the youngest to wear the crown—and now it proudly takes credit for his success. The private academy, popular for training medical aspirants , will draw on Prudhvitej's own accomplishment and cash in on the large enrolments it will get for the ensuing year.

"When I was in class XI, this coaching class had sent some notes to me free of cost. I don't know why they sent those booklets. Neither did I contact them, nor have they ever spoken to me. Just because they sent these notes, they registered me as a student," said Prudhvitej.Since the results were declared, many who secured top ranks have been shocked to find their names linked with tutorials they never attended. A long line of politicians, touts and coaching academies have been badgering toppers — "please appear in this ad'' , "please be the chief guest'' , "kindly endorse our product" .
