no......chlorine gets attached to the 2-degree carbon atom due to its negligible difference in reactivity with 2 and 3 degree carbon atoms !!!! had this been for bromine 3 degree would have been the answer.. the relative reactivity table is shown below for chlorine and bromine :

but the relative reactivity does depends on the temp of the sys so it is very easy to achieve any of the products as major

donot mention such things ......even the link you have mentioned doesnot speak much coherently about relative reactivities....i know what i have said and i still persist with it ....i cannot think anything else because "an iitian who is the best in chemistry at tiit " has said something else !
