Looks like my post on my personal experience with the coachingwallahs has unsettled quite some nerves at their end.
After the post, I began to be bombarded with some nasty comments in the comments section – all apparently coming from different different aspirants. I couldn’t understand it until I checked my email. I ve put the settings in my blog that if anybody makes a comment, I get an email notification.
Below I am producing the screenshots of some of these nasty comments… The good thing is, in the email, apart from the comment content, the IP address of the commenter also comes… And I found out, as you can see below in the screenshots, all the nasty comments came from ONE SINGLE IP. hahaha… Oh poor coachingwallah… One single coachingwallah was putting all these nasty comments (and I leave it to the readers to guess / find out who this coachingwallah is). Notice the IPs in the screenshots below
Then I just did a sanity check that not all comments (sane ones as well as nasty) were coming from same IP addresses .. mebbe wordpress server puts its own IP… But no.. it turned out that the sane comments were all coming from different IPs i.e. different people…
So my message to coachingwallahs… you do your best to fool innocent aspirants taking my name… I don’t have the resources to match your marketing prowess, but I will do my best to guide them on the right path… So stop messing with me…
If some one wishes to be updated with latest technologies therefore he must be visit this website and be up to date daily.

Gaurav Sir,
Great Effort , Coming Forward and helping all aspirant. Thanks for opening eye of new aspirants regarding pros and cons of Coaching and truth about them.
I am a Victim of the said “Top Institute” & Its marketing Strategy , This said Coaching makes a hype of shortage of seats , makes people to register online for few batches provides waiting list and then accommodate all of them by increasing no. of batches.easy way to show the huge demand.
When I started going for the class , to my utter surprise there was nothing in their teaching which made them the so called “top Institute”.Only marketing and money is what they strive for.
Totally dissatisfied with loss of money and valuable time. With your write up on this many candidate’s “Hard earned money and time is saved.”

Coaching institutes have always tried their best to fool the aspirants. I have become a victim of an IITJEE coaching. They dont care about the students. They even astray the aspirants to make mokey for themselves. We really need to inquiry about any coaching from students reading in it before joining it. Gaurav sir is really doing a nice job by guiding the aspirants to be on right path. You inspire a lot! You are my HERO! I wonder why did i get someone like you before starting my JEE preparation.

Hello sir,
You really is a source of thought to me, always. Though there is lot about you I feel as a guide, as a teacher etc. And would love to share in person if ever get a chance(😍).
But this time really need some guidance as I have started preparing for the coming CSE 2019. So was searching for some guidance on coaching as I couldn’t find anyone more trustworthy then you.
But how to reach to you!! Then I encounter the remark you made that you get mail of any comment we put here. So hoping that you will read it, acknowledge my regards and would give me some guidance.
Query: I really believe in self study, I too trust my self and on my strategies but there are some points which are motivating me to go and try for coaching, e.g.
1. Knowledge of competition: is it true that sitting at-home won’t give you a competitive environment and you will end up lost in your own world?
2. Content will get effected: there are sayings that teachers are important and will provide you different insights all together and there are no substitute for it.
3. Better managment of time: you will get a proper time table and will get used to it and will do tasks in a rhythm.
Though there are other things as well but to me right now these questions are continuously engaging me!
Please help me with your insights on this that to what extent going for coaching is really a need!!
Thank you
Regards
Kanika

Sir, thanks very much for the information.
Because of these money extortionists, poor people like me get in a dilemma of whether to follow a toppers view or the view of the coaching centres.
Sometimes we tend to believe the opposite opinion people have about a particular view of the topper. I’m one of your great fans who during 2014, completed his graduation. I found your interview on pratiyogita darpan along with Ankit raj.. somehow I couldn’t face the exam till 2018 (had to join MNC) but quit the job and preparing. Sometimes whenever I feel demotivated I read topper’s story who earlier had been a working professional.
Thanks again. Bless you.

[…] I’d joined a coaching when I arrived in Delhi in my first attempt, but quit in four months, finding it ill-suited for my purposes. It was a continuation of the dreadful institutional learning that I’d quit finally just a year before. The things I was being taught were not rocket science. It’s a different matter altogether to take coaching for optional subjects, or to subscribe to a test series, but I see no legitimate basis for graduates to take classes to learn “general studies”. I realise I lack the credibility to bash coachings, but it’s not a radical notion by any means.[1] […]
