An Indian student, Ruby Rai, 17, ranked first in the Bihar state exams but said in a video interview that her main subject political science was about cooking.
After the video went viral, Ms Rai was made to re-sit her exams, and was arrested after she failed and had her original results cancelled.
She was produced in court on Sunday where a magistrate sent her to jail until 8 July.
The decision to send her to prison has been criticised given that she is a minor and should, therefore, be sent to a detention home for juveniles.
