I heard about Allen from my elder brother who was there in Kota 2011 in Bansal, coaching which made a small city like this topic to talk on by producing one-digit rankers in various national level examinations.
infinite stories and anecdotes have been stored, impossible to share. so, to cut the answer short am writing the bullets which highlight Allen.
Management-10/10 it is not easy to control students. at Allen, there are some 1lakh students studying.
Teaching-10/10 the best mind of the India involved in education are in Kota.
Allen boasts of having nearly 1500 teachers, called "faculties" I Kota, who are justthe best in their field.
people say, "what is bio?" - and ability test how much you can memorize. earlier I too had some opinion, but trust me, I have spent the least time memorizing bio in the two years. you are given with awesome mnemonics stored lifelong. every single line is sent to you at least 5time in a lecture in a different way.
whatever you require is provided. they dont give you chance say, agar ye mil jata to the main aur bdhiya kurta" they just provide you everything. a student starts to feel "ye Bhi phone hai".
Care for students - best than the rest. its depend on you whether you will agree or not, but I was a student of Allen have felt it.
Infrasture - 10/10 among 12 or 13 building of Allen, many of them are built in a way that you will feel you in any mall. it is probably my last week Kota, but what all I have learned here, experienced here, will remain with me throughout my life.
thank you.
