Haha, I did air cadets for two years ... their camps were certainly an experience ;)
Has anyone received an email yet, with passwords for the distinction course site?
Haha, I am indeed :) Thanks for that btw. I was a bit flustered (the drive down was stressful; mum was reading the map and led me to NSW uni campus by mistake :D ) Which brother are you?
And, which did you end up applying for-- cosmo or phil?
7000-12000.
And I'm choosing to be optimistic: once [if] we get to that stage, we'll be fine with it ;)
Faxed my app yesterday. Not going to bother with a mail back-up.
Re: Study Habits
Well, I think I'm doing quite well with my study so far. Regarding timetable: only really wrote mine up a few days ago- I've managed to study without it- but I think it'll get me more focused :)
AND I finished my english speech a few days in advance of due date! That's a BIG...
I don't think there were more than 80 people there anyway. Probably less (i didn't count..) and I don't think everyone will apply out of those. Also, I think a greater number of people are applying for phil than for cosmo..
So, I think you'll get in :)
I'm terrified, yes.
But I think that when the time comes, I'll know what to do; just as, in year 10, I was terrified of the idea of EE2, but now I'm doing it and it's just exciting :)
I won't let that final project deter me from doing the course!
:spin:
On the 12th I have a prize award ceremony for like 4 hours, I'm hoping they won't call me then!
Wouldn't that be great; you're up on the stage receiving some award and phone rings, and you're like "sorry, but I.... have to get that.."
the odds of that are pretty small I suppose, after that...
I'm actually thinking about both, now. I'll post my app & report today then back that up with a fax from school on Monday.
I honestly don't care if they get two copies and hence get confused; better that than no copies get through at all, right?
I'm sure I won't get in trouble for posting it...
