&quot;Times New Roman&quot;">Five Point Someone: What Not to Do at IIT Five Point Someone
is a story about three friends in IIT who are unable to cope. The book starts
with a disclaimer, “This is not a book to teach you how to get into IIT or even
how to live in college. It describes how screwed up things can get if
you don’t think straight.” <span style="mso-spacerun:yes">&nbsp;</span>Three 
hostel mates – Alok, Hari, and Ryan get off to a bad start in IIT – they
 screw up
the first class quiz. And while they try to make amends, things only get
 worse.
It takes them a while to realize: If you try and screw with the IIT 
system, it
comes back to double-screw you. Before they know it, they are at the 
lowest
echelons of IIT society. They have a five-point-something GPA out of 
ten,
ranking near the end of their class. This GPA is a tattoo that will 
remain with
them, and come in the way of anything else that matters – their 
friendship,
their future, their love life. While the world expects IITians to 
conquer the
world, these guys are struggling to survive. Will they make it? Do 
under-performers have a right to live? Can they show that they are not 
just a
five-point-somebody but a five-point-someone? </span></p>
