Summary

Five Point Someone - What not to do at IIT! is the first book written by Chetan Bhagat, an IIT Delhi and IIM Ahmedabad alumnus.

The novel is set in in the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, in the period 1991 to 1995. It is about the lives of three mechanical engineering students, Hari (the narrator), Ryan Oberoi, and Alok Kumar, who fail to cope with the cruel grading system of the IITs and come to be known as five pointers due to their perennially low 5.something GPAs.

The story is first person by Hari, with some small passages by his colleagues Ryan and Alok, as well as a letter by his girlfriend Neha Cherian.

The book is about three friends who make it to one of the best engineering colleges in India and how they spend their lives here
