If you submitted your application on 7th May 10, you are a pre June 10 applicant as post June applicant is considered when appl: received on or after 26th June 10.
Good luck!
Not really since some pre June applicants incurred Visa less than one year even though some haven't been through yet and still in process.Likewise pre June, some post June were granted visa less than one year meanwhile some are still en route.I suppose it is subject to individual's circumstances.
Good luck!
