Has the number of universality positions increased ? ...... or is 900 quota limit lower than it was ? ............. I think the number of B seats left were only 30 .....which means that the majority of positions went to the big A level nations and then universality positions majority of whom would be not meeting the B standard strength does not come from physical capacity but from an indomitable will. - Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They accepted all entries what resulted in going over quota limit. Since 2012 they want to stay inside the quota limit and that's why they changed the qualification system... But there should be more quotas... #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
