•The national bestseller

•Soon to be a major film by director Ritesh Sinha

•The disclaimer, "This is not a book to teach you how to get into IIT or even how to live in college. In fact, it describes how screwed up things can get if you don't think straight."

Bad start – spoil the first class quiz of ApMech Late realization: If you try and screw with the IIT
