After you read this please share to other people because I don't want other to suffer like me by joining SRINIVAS.
Please do not take this post in a negative sense. The following that I write is absolutely true as I was a victim of such Coaching Insitutes.
Getting directly to point: of all, SRINIVAS IAS COACHING INSITUTE(Anthropology) is number one FRAUD institute. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do not ever join this institute. STAY FAR FAR FAR AWAY from this 'SRINIVAS'. Number one Cheater.
STAY FAR FAR and FAR AWAY from this guy if u don't want to waste time, money and feel irritated.Yes I mean it. Joining this institute will make you feel irritated for being cheated by him.
Below are reasons:(Please believe me I have no hatred towards this guy and these opinion are written in unbaised way.)
He only(and only) bothers to take your money.
He is not interested in teaching and guiding students but MAKING money.
As a matter of fact, he himself doesn't know many concepts in Anthropology.
All promises made by him in initial days like weekly test, monthly evaluation and extra classes are all false. The moment u pay money, he doesn't bother of who you are.He would ask you to wait till half the portion gets over to write a test. Once you reach half portion he would either pretend as if he had not made such promise or even if students forces him(as happened in my batch) he will take atleat 40-50 days to get your paper evaluated. By that time either you will forget that you have given exam or he would deliberately choose not to remind you.
This is frustating:
He takes 15-20 days of leave whenever he wants and goes to his home(Hyderabad). He don't understand what students opinion is and to cover the lost days he rushes like anything or ask u to refer lost topic on own.
This would be very frustating and irritating since all the plan you would make of syllabus completion by 3.5 month would be extended anything easily by other 1.5 to 2 months.(This is what happened with my batch. Everyone cursed and scolded him like anything.) Our batch completed coaching in 6 months. Yes. He fools you that he is going to complete in 3.5month but he doesn't.
He takes such vacation once in 1.5-2 month. Atleast 3 times he visits Hyderabad during the course of your so called coaching.
Coming to his classes:
His 1st hour (out of 2 hr class) is time pass; He somehow takes u to unrelated and non-contributing debate and waste time and in 2nd hour ask u to take notes(only for Physical). I felt like Why did I give him money and why should I have to listen to such non-sense debate(which lacks any justification).
Even in class he makes statements which nobody on earth except him would agree.
Few of his sentences are(in class):
1. When the topic of class is subjective(like social anthropology) he says('this topic is airy and liquid'). What f***ing english he uses in class?
2. In topic of inheritance he says (the rickshaw puller might be of ashoka's lineage). NON sense. Non sense.
3. Understand what i am saying(he repeat this statement and this will irritate you like anything since you don't understand what he is teaching)
4. is it true or not
5. open your brain then class will flow( I feel -- Rubbish english)
6. pull and push
All such statements are to waste time and not to give concept(which I understood later).
I am telling you, he doesn't teach Anthro. Even in physical he has no clarity on human evolution and various fossils and he will ask you to directly take down notes without explaining any thing. This will irritate you and will make you feel why did i join him ?
His sociology part is horrible, disastrous and too vague and too boring to attend. Complete waste of time. Notes are rubbish and complete garbage.
His paper 2, this F**k*r completely skipped tribal part and asked to read on my own{why did he take money if he doesn't teach???}. He will ask u to buy Nadeem tribal Book and read it. He hardly spends more than 1 class for tribal and even in those 2 hrs he cracks jokes or somehow waste time to complete 2hr.
He doesn't encourage doubt. I guess he wants to avoid embarrassing situation in class if he doesn't answer.
When coaching is about to complete he says coaching will not help but writing will help and ask you to register for answer writing test.
Once you pay money for this test, he will irritate you by not evaluating papers(As i said you he wants money and not our benefit). OR even if he evaluate it, he will not write any remarks on paper. You can see that your paper was not evaluated but rather tick-marked with red pen by giving random marks.When you ask him the comments for your paper for a question he will asks you to come later and he will avoid you finally. If you succeed to meet him at any cost, he will ask you to forget of last test and suggest to write next test(the cycle repeats).
I wrote 6 exams of which he evaluated(with no remarks) of test-1,2 and asked me to forget of remaining 4 saying he would evaluate them after 20 days(as he is going to his home). When I questioned him strongly, he asked me angrily to get out of institute.
Everytime i remind this scene, I wanted to punish him like anything, for teaching nothing after taking huge money.
From his coaching i concluded that he don't have any knowledge of the subject but has read some toppers notes and mug them up every day before class(you can see him revising notes before class).
Finally after all these remarks if you still don't believe me, then be ready to get cheated by this.(Again, I repeat You will lose money,time & feel irritated)
He does bogus marketing ? Absolutely bogus. A thread with in this forum refers to bogus marketing done by him in the HINDU.
Then how to read ?
Anthro- get standard books for physical & Social- like P Nath, Nadeem, (for other books refer any topper) and read. Try to make notes for each topic and you will get good marks. This will work and believe me.
After you read this please share to other people because I don't want other to suffer like me by joining SRINIVAS.
