LOL... it's an application you make when you're not bothered which college you want to go to. I thought it applied to all collegiate universities (with there being only a few).

Oooh, LOL. They might have it - I don't have the application papers yet.

But nah, I wanna make choices of which College to stay in. Apparently County and Bowland are a bit busy and loud - so I don't wanna stay there.
The ones I'm interested in mainly are Fylde and Furness.
Just wanna get other peoples opinions

Good luck with it Lauren!
I suppose it's good, you're making the choice and picking the college YOU think you'll feel most comfortable in.

It might be a few weeks yet, it's normally about a month or a bit less than when you firmed/insuranced them.

Yeah it's probs cos they already know that they've successfully recruited me so they stop panicking and start concentrating on the 2008 applicants lol.

The Reading badge looks soooo nice.

You should put a little "Vs." between them, haha.

Cheers Sunny and Lauren!

I had such a good day today. I enjoyed like every minute of it.

If I'm being honest though, I don't think I'll get in. I think they said there was originally 600 applicants and only about 140 were called for interviews. So even to get that far is an achievement, I suppose.

There were people with much more experience and potential there today, though, IMO. I'll know by next Friday, but I'm really not getting my hopes up.

Good luck Lance!
Well done for getting so far, 140 out of 600 is amazing.

Have faith in yourself, and if all doesn't go to plan don't be too down about it.

Dont sell yourself too short Lance - when at interview they are not looking for the ones who know it all already they are looking for the ones with the most to bring to their establishment and those with an obvious desire to do the course!

They have to love you anyway or I will be after them
