real GMAT scores

The GMAT is scored on a scale of 200 to 800 in 10 point increments. (Thus 410 and 760 are real GMAT scores but 412 and 765 are not). A first-year class at a certain business school consists of 475 students. Did any student of the same gender in the first-year class who were born in the same-named month have the same GMAT score?
(1) The range of GMAT scores in the first-year class is 600 to 780.
(2) 60 percent of the students in the first-year class are male.

The explanation given by Eli Mayer in this old BTG post gives a nice explanation to this question.

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary" - Steve Jobs
