Hi ssy,

After reinstalling, the questions selected for the previous test are reset..so there are not many repeats the 3rd and 4th time you take the test.. After that the questions would start repeating.

With this kind of profile, which all colleges can I target? Do I have a chance in the top 20?
How much importance is given to extra-curricular activities? Can I compensate it with strong academics and good achievements at work?
