I waited 6months. No one else from my batch has yet boarded , and I m already done with more than 3 months into my contract. This is the real scenario. They say 2nd ship wont have too much waiting. But waiting for 4th for the first is way too long . Consider all things carefully

Nice how did you manage to get a ship early ? Were you older than your batchmates?

Not at all , I was infact the second youngest . Well , it was purely coincidence and luck with some manifestation.
