Should I make atleast 3 pull requests before I can apply to OpenMRS?

[ab7zz (Abhinav C V)]

I’m kind of confused. According to the proposal template GSoC - Proposal Guidelines - Resources - OpenMRS Wiki, I’m supposed to make atleast 3 pull requests before I can even apply? I thought it doesn’t matter if we made any pull requests or contributions before even being accepted. Could someone please calrify?

Hi @ab7zz, per this webpage you do have to make at least 3 PR’s - can I know where you saw differently? Or can a higher up possibly clarify?

Having work done and putting up PRs around your project of interest makes your application strong and increases your chances of being selected by GSoC

But is it compulsory?

Are you referring to number~8 ?
