now that was a BIG mail by Narbik one of the best instructors in market,
 hemanth every one has different styles/approach and pesonal prefrences.

when some one praises a vendor / instructor which is not YOUR preffered one
, just dont jump in to praise ur vendor which kinda defeat sprit of GS

personally i m too ine fan but at the same time respect all MAJOR
competetors like narbik , ipx , ccbootcamp . because they all help ME clear
my doubts in GS , extreemly useful blogs and free vlecture series.
