The Real Contribution Behind Every Result
Contribution Score gives your part in a student's success a clear grade from A to E. It's worked out from records you log as students join, and anyone can check it by scanning the QR code on your badge.
One Topper, Five Institutes Claiming Them
Fake topper claims have become so common that one rank holder can show up on several institutes' posters, each taking full credit. Parents have no way to tell who actually helped, and the institutes that only claim what they've earned get drowned out by the loudest ones.
Every Provider Gets Its Fair Share of Credit
Every institute that helped a student gets a score for its own part, so parents see the full picture, not just the loudest claim.
Your Part, Scored Separately
Coaching, mock tests or interview prep: each institute gets a score for its own part in the result.
Logged When Students Join
Students are added within 10 days of admission, so no one can claim a topper after the result is out.
Same Rules for Every Institute
Big or small, online or offline, every institute is scored by the same published method.
One Topper, Three Providers, Three Grades
Illustrative example. Not a real candidate or institute.Selection pathway with three stages: Written Exam, Interview, Medical. Highlighted stages show what each provider supported.
Coaching Institute
Full course for the written exam and interview, hybrid, 3–6 months
Test Series
Full-syllabus mock tests online for the written exam, 6–12 months
Interview Mentor

Every part counted, and a clear answer for every parent.

Six Steps to Your First Contribution Score
No institute can work out a score before it's registered and approved. It's free to start, and we guide you through every step.
Register
Fill in the short form with your institute's details and a contact person.
Learn the Rules and Sign the Agreement
Our team takes you through exactly how scores are worked out, with the dos and don'ts. You sign the Contribution Score agreement to accept them.
Get Approved and Get Your Dashboard
Once the agreement is signed, your institute is approved, gets its own Institute ID, and your dashboard is switched on. Scores can only be worked out from here.
Add Every New Student Within 10 Days
Add each student within 10 days of admission, with their course and dates. If they upgrade to another course, update it when it happens.
Record the Result
When results are out, add the result date and pick the selected student from your list. Students who weren't added on time can't be picked.
Get Your Grade, Badge and QR Code
Your dashboard works out your Contribution Score and gives you a badge with its own QR code, linked to the student's public record.
What You'll Add for Each Student
- The student's full name, exactly as it appears in the result
- A clear photo of the student
- The course they enrolled in, with full course details
- Their enrollment date and joining date
- The date their course ends
- Any upgrade to another course, when it happens
- The result date and outcome, once it's declared
No contact details. You never share a student's phone number, email or address, so no student data can be linked back to them.
The 10-day rule. A student added more than 10 days after admission can't be scored, and results can only be recorded for students already on your list.
Register Your InstituteHow Your Score Is Calculated
Your dashboard gives marks for six things about the help you gave, using the course and dates you logged for the student, and adds them up. The marks are public, so anyone can check them.

Your Grade
Your grade shows how much support you gave, from A for the most to E for the least.
There's no bad grade here. Every score shows a real part in a student's success.
What People See When They Scan Your QR Code
Every badge carries its own QR code. Scanning it confirms the institute is registered with Contribution Score and opens a public record of the student and the course behind the result, so anyone can check the claim for themselves.
Scan to Know More
Every badge has its own QR code, made for one student's result.
- One QR code for each student result, so a badge can't be reused on another poster
- No phone number, email or address is ever shown or stored
- The page confirms the institute is a registered Contribution Score institute, with its Institute ID
- Anyone can report a record that looks wrong, straight from the page

What Your Score Says, and What It Doesn't
Contribution Score doesn't rate how good an institute is. It shows that the results you advertise are real, and how much you contributed to them.
It shows
- That you really did contribute to the success of the result you're showing to the public
- How much you contributed, as a grade from A to E worked out with one published method
- What that contribution was: the program, how it was taught and how long the student studied with you
- That the claim is backed by records logged when the student joined, which anyone can check by scanning your QR code
- That you chose to be open and honest about your result claims
It doesn't show
- How good your institute is overall
- That you'll produce similar results in future
- A rating of any institute or any teacher
- An endorsement of your teaching or your courses
Think of Contribution Score as an honest marketing score, not a quality score. It tells people that a result claim is real and how big a part you played in it.
Overseen by Those Who Know Education Best
A panel of eminent professors, retired university deans and senior educators oversees the method, so no institute can bend the rules in its favour.
One Method for Every Institute
The panel makes sure every score follows the same published rules, with no exceptions for size or fame.
Every Report Gets Looked Into
When a student or parent reports a record from its QR page, the panel reviews it.
No Ties to Any Institute
Panel members, how they're chosen and the rules that keep them independent are all made public.
Panel details coming soon
Educators who've built results now make sure they're claimed fairly.
The Rules Behind Every Score
A score is only as good as the rules behind it. Here are ours.
Student Privacy First
We never collect a student's phone number, email or address. Only their name, photo and course details are kept, and shown with their consent.
One Score, One Result
Each score belongs to one student's result and can't be reused for any other result, ad or poster.
Logged Within 10 Days
Every student must be added within 10 days of admission. A student added late can't be used for a score.
Corrections Made Public
When a score changes in a big way, it's shown in our monthly report. Genuine errors aren't treated like false claims.
No Promises of Results
No institute may use its score to promise selection or future success.
These rules keep every score fair, for every institute and every parent.
Every Change, Reported Every Month
Each month we publish what changed: which institutes were approved, what was reported from QR pages, which institutes were suspended or removed, which scores were corrected, and why.
October 2026
Published 1 Nov 2026 · Reporting period 1 Oct – 31 Oct 2026
