Balaji Srinivasan graduated high school in 1997.

True: biographical records, such as a school or alumni record, a CV or LinkedIn profile, or a reliable biography, show that Balaji Srinivasan completed high school in 1997. Mostly true: the evidence places graduation in 1997 but is only approximate, such as a class-of-1997 listing without an exact date. Mostly false: records show he graduated in an adjacent year (1996 or 1998). False: records show a year further from 1997.

None of the sources mentions Srinivasan's high school or when he graduated from it. E1, E3, E4 and E5 date the start of his Stanford studies to 1997. E2 gives 1997 as the end of the first period in its timeline of his life (1980–1997). Both fit a 1997 graduation, but they are inferences from other dates, not a record that states his high school graduation year, which is what the criteria require.
