Five Point Something
RAVI | Books | 11 July 2004, 9:57pm
Yesterday i finished reading another book called "five point something". Man, itz a must read especially for guys like us. This book depicts the life of three students at iit, delhi... for those of u who donno iit... itz like the temple of education in india. students work day and night (why don't they say night and day??!!) to get into that.
Well, coming back to the book... it was awsome man. It depicts the times which Hari (the author), Ryan (the herez-an-idea dude) and Alok (the no-play-always-study guy). The common thing about all of them is that their CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) is "five point something". Yeah!! U heard it right 5+... thatz y they resemble me :D.
He goes on to describe how they three become good friends upto the day when they are graduated when they miss the convocation... man these people rock. Sometimes while reading the book u feel like "I wish I could live their life apart from their CGPA" but then again end up thinkin "Thank god!! I am not them". hehe.
The book starts off with the ragging season at iit-d wherein these three are being ragged by their seniors. Alok and Hari the fatsos are asked to remove their clothes and bend down. Ryan the handome, stronger and smarter of the three is asked to depict poses of a body-builder. Then ot ends up with Ryan restraining the seniors and saving Alok's and Hari's asses.
Then the story goes off to describe their first semester and how they end up scoring five point something GPA... and how alok quits the gang to study on his own... and again the reunion of the three... their C2D theory... Neha (Hari's GF, HOD's daughter and imp. of all... a beauty)... their exams again... their trying-to-steal-major-paper... DISCO... suicide-attempt of Alok... Sasi's... Ice-cream parlour(meeting place of Hari and Neha)... lube project of Ryan... finally convocation (which of course thy miss)... among other interesting situations.
Itz definitely worth a read. However what i wanna say is this book rockzzzz and I wish I could write a book like this... god gimme the power to write one. hehe just kiddin.

There is, of course, also the other full form of CGPA - also derived from IIT campuses.
