This weather is just so rubbish. Just been out to remove all the snow from the cars but the roads are clear. Hopefully the sun predicted for tomorrow will melt it quickly. Keeping everything crossed for you and your DD.
Btw, DD said PPA were still auditioning for MT if she was interested in trying there?

I think UCAS extra is open now. It allows a 6th choice - but not sure if that’s if you’ve been unsuccessful in the other 5? Might be worth checking on the UCAS site x

Mm it's confusing x if I decline what we have then I could x I think! But I have to wait for Hammond first x I really hope they let us know quickly! Has anyone had a reply back about the trinity letter asking if your interested in the foundation. I know it's early days but I really would like to have an idea of where my daughter is going to go! Lol

Hope all goes well at The Hammond audition for Tuesday Marissa, and that the snow doesn't cause too much disruption to your travel. Good luck to your daughter! x [-o<

Thankyou so much x I don't hold out much luck as I know Hammond give out places as they go and this is the last audition date but we have to go for it xx I'm quite exhausted with it all. How the DD and DS cope with this I don't know x Wish us luck xxx

Good luck to you both! We are thinking about auditioning for PPA too. Am getting to the point where I am hoping she gets in somewhere/anywhere - I just don't know if I can do this all again next year - the stress!!

Hi everyone, well after a much-needed break from auditions - we are back this week! DS has GSA audition on Thursday. Going with an open mind - he received a Merit for his Btec not Distinction so the grade factor is likely to come in.

Then one more in April at Central. Numbers of in-take are even lower but it's all or nothing.

I really am happy for all the good news coming in - we all know how hard you have to work before and during auditions, it's a slog - including on nerves of parents too, so can appreciate the happiness parents of successful auditionees must be feeling.

I, myself am trying not to feel too low - at the start of the audition process, DS had 4 options and entered it with hope. We are now half-way through with no success and 2 more to go - both feeling like they are impossible to reach, but worth a try. I really am praying he gets some luck, else it's back to the drawing board. [-o< [-o<

Good luck to your DS!! We are in a similar situation, with one audition down and only two to go. Hope his Thursday audition goes well!
