Increased competition to get seats into reputed colleges has given rise private coaching institutes in India. They prepare students for not only engineering, medical, MBA, SAT, GRE, banking jobs' entrance tests, but also teach subjects like English for employment in India and abroad. A 2013 survey by ASSOCHAM predicted the size of private coaching industry to be $40 billion, or Rs 2.39 lakh crore in 2015. Coaching classes are blamed for the neglect of school education by students.
