No, dear....

As far as I have explored, it would even be much cheaper option if we catch the flight by Banglore, and book and additional ticket of Mumbai - Banglore - Mumbai (currently priced @ 5K).. so our total journy cost will come up as 15 K- still quite economic.


From Mumbai, the cheapest flight for Sing (to+fro) is priced at some 21-22 K (AI)


Thanks a lot dude!!!

Planning to go from 5th - 10th..

M sendin you a PM.. lets coordinate if possible

I have registered without providing any offer code.... and I dont think, under the normal registration, we are required to mention any type of offer code.

That may be for the candidates having some relaxation on the fees on some grounds like- Re-appearing in an exam or whatever- - - this is just a guess...

But, if anyone has GOT any offer code mentioning which he/she has got some discount in the fees, then would have mentioned the same on some the communities runing on PG and Orkut.

So, just go and register urself leaving the offercode textboxes as BLANK.

This time results for December 2nd exam were out by 23rd January. That gives you enough time to decide for L2.

Cheers!

You can have a look at the test centers while registering ,there are 175 of them.

The following could be viable options

1.Nepal: Quite Close for people in the North and no visa for Indians.
2.Sri Lanka:If you are located in the South quite close and easy visa procedure.
3.Thailand: Cheap flights available from all major cities and closest for people in the East ,visa on arrival for Indians.
4.Hong Kong: Lots of flights available ,no visa required for Indians if stay is for less than 14 days.
5.Singapore:Again good connectivity and easy visa procedure.

As for me I have registered for my L3 in Bangkok .Reasons- Bad domestic situation in both Nepal and Sri Lanka and it costs about the same from Mumbai to go to these places or Thailand.I had given my L2 in Bangkok as well and the place is quite goos with reasonably priced hotels.

Return Flight to and Fro from Bangkok would cost about 17k and add another 10-12k for a 3-4 day stay.

Hi Dude..Can you give a little bit more info on Bangkok as a test center. What is the exact place (test center) and where can you stay in Bangkok? The cost you mentioned 10-12K is on a shared basis or you can stay alone for the same amount.

Also is it easy to get the test center?
