IGRUA ENTRANCE TEST STUDY MATERIAL

Dear all,

I have the study material for the IGRUA entrance test. It's compiled by PnA - the pilot and airhostesses consulting firm. The study material has books for the entire syllabus and a few CDs which have tips for Interview and WOMBAT. 

I bought it last year and studied from the same. My overall rank in IGRUA 2010 merit list was 8th (General category).

Those who want to purchase it from me can give me a call at 09811411188.

Thanks.
