Thnx n happy independence day...

i am a pe2 group 1 passed student ..i have finished my ITT and i had actually converted to IPCC a year back i.e. in 2009..i have a couple of queries that i need solved

1)while everyone in the 3 threads related to this topic believes that our articleship is for 3 years one of them disagrees on the number of years after which we are eligible for the final examination(he's saying last 6 months while others are saying last 12 months)..so which one is correct?im a bit confused

2)according to the announcement i.e.  10th august..we are supposed to be paying only 2000 so why are some people out here saying 3500 or even 4500..i thought the IPCC conversion fee was paid when i already registered for it ..so why again?
