Hey Shrinivas,

Thats all BS. In my class last year, we found a correlation which went exactly the other way around. Myself and two others wrote in June and scored more than 1500. The fourth guy who wrote in June scored 1430. Not a single chap who wrote after June managed anything above 1400. So basically, there's no such thing as that. But June's definitely a good idea - gives u a lot of time to think about your universities (tho' I'm talking here of an MS and not an MBA)

hey another thing. this is the latest rumour and i believe that this too is nothing more than just another rumour. They say that scores are generally higher in the non metro centres than in the metro centres between the months june to sept. dont get serious. its just a rumour to ponder about and guess how far it is true. even if it is true, it will be nothing but coincidence.


Atleast that is what i hope.

I have been noticing the patterns for the last 4 years.... n NO there is no discernible pattern abt some centers giving high scores or some months giving high scores..


Cycle time does not mean you can take three women and have a baby in 3 months. It still takes nine months.

Dude
just keep ur cool, stop thinking about scores and slog hard.
I thnk ur rackin ur brains too much on matters which really shud not b ur main concern.
I guess u shud better concentrate on ur pre apps than indulging into rumours or speculating the future
will do u a lot of good ...trust me
