Has anyone had the experience of a gsa recall ? They provide a list of songs to choose from and ds was wondering if there are ones that are particularly overdone .i said that they would probably be happy with any off their list but he feels that it may go against him if he sings one of the easier options ( not that any are what I'd call easy)

My DDs recall was a few years ago but they asked her what else she had, so she gave them a few options from her file, and theycvhoise one of hers. Not sure if that helps, but it suggests that if they like you there may asdk for another. (She got offer of a place BTW)

As long as they don't kind other choices not being on their list that will be fine. He doesn't really know any if the songs to performance standard yet so to learn a couple of options may be tricky !!!

Good luck with your DS's recall. He must have impressed them to get a recall. My DD's first audition is Friday. She found a list of songs on their website but it looks like it's been removed now. We can't find it anymore. Do they send it to you if you get a recall?

When's your DS Recall? My DD had her audition for GSA on Friday. She said she felt it went well but it's so hard to tell if they like you and they have so many 1000's apply apparently . Someone we know who auditioned we thought was very talented and he didn't get a recall so it must be very hard. I really hope she gets a recall. Just to get that far would be an amazing achievement and experience. Good luck to your DS for his Recall. I hope they give you time to prepare a new song in time for it.

Good luck to your dd. They usually give you 2 weeks or do before recall. You have to take the song you sang at first round , 2 contrasting modern monologues and a one minute dance solo. Good luck. She may find out tomorrow .

Thanks very much Oscar. I'm so nervous for her. I know this is the one she really wants so keeping everything crossed. Please keep us posted with how your DS gets on. Best of luck to him too.

My DD got a recall for GSA. We're so happy because we know how hard it is to get that far. \:D/

Yay !!! How long does she have to learn her song?

Not very long. About 2 weeks. And she's going to choose and learn another monologue. She's very keen though so I think she will learn it in time. Hope so anyway.

Has your DS had his recall yet? :)
