Hi friend, how can I get position? Can I call PC to find out?

No juss asking if i m at number 30, what do u think the chances are

0% I believe , because I have information that all those who are ranked above you will rank the program at number 1. So sorry my friend and stop acting like a jerk asking such questionson this forum .

@usmlestruggle:ok is example you give. I think is very good chance, because I read on the forum that the formula for rank can go up to 5x position so 30 is good.
@darudesi. Please don't be annoyed on us. Some of us are very tense because of less IV and are having some doubt.

This thing is so unpredictable that a person getting 1 IV can match and 15 Iv can be unmatched ... asking people to help and answer such questions is our of my head . In short you want to hear that there is a good chance so that you can relax..... I would suggest download some american tv show and get hooked up to it, that's a good advice.

@guruprasad I think it would be a good idea to call the PC and find out. How would that conversation go? "Hey...I'm calling to find out where you have ranked me in the Match this year....even though it is absolutely illegal for me to ask you...but hey...I have lost patience (which was listed as a virtue in my PS) so please...do me this one favor?" Let me know how it goes.

Guru bhai .... for the love of .... do not even think of doing that. Do not listen to anyone that is telling you to do so as they are just being immature dick heads trying to set you up. Also guru* relax man, there is nothing anyone can do till march 17th.

Sarcasm perhaps wasn't included on the PS.
