AJ... you're entitled to your opinion. Fine.
Do you know that students come to DAV from DPS? Not the other way around. Everyone has their own ranking system. Rediff is not an ultimate ranker. Different ranking systems rank differently. Do you think that the person who scored #1 in the IIT entrance exam is really #1? Look at cricket rankings. So many rankings ... LG-ICC, CEAT, PWC, etc... different
So, stop being a sore loser. If you're from the North and can't accept the fact that a school in the South has been praised, you need a good education. There is no point having an internal divide in the country.

It's not a matter of appreciating or not appreciating. An article which claims that it has found the best school should be well-researched. DPS, R.K. Puram (Delhi) also produces many IIT students every year. Why should it not be the best school? There would be many schools I don't even know about. My only question was and is: "Did the writer put in the effort of finding out about other schools or not?" If not, then superlatives like "best" etc. should not be used. Just citing the example of one school would be unfair to many other schools which are doing a great job.

Hi AJ,
Its not about producing IIT students alone. The statistics talk about many other factors like pass percentage, no. of students over 95% and so on. And DAVians have been invited to the PM's office to witness the Republic Day Parade. So I guess this news is definitely believable. Whether you believe it or not depends on whether you WANT to believe it or not. One can choose to be skeptical until he is presented with evidence by the CBSE itself.
