Re: A Level/BTEC Diploma

Thanks Paulears that was very helpful. Will quiz my dd more to see what if anything she knows. If she isn't sure then she has her show next week so will ask her course leader.

Re: A Level/BTEC Diploma

Hi everyone For anyone who has had a dc do a b tech in musical theatre (or dance/performing arts for that matter) can anyone tell me when the students were given their final grades? My dd knows her graduation date when she will receive her certificate which is July. But I would imagine they are told...

Re: Applying for 2013

Well, that's ds finished this year. He had RADA on Tuesday and sadly a no today, he wasn't expecting a lot from there. He did love RADA though, he said the panel were so friendly and seemed to be really interested in him and laughed a lot at his modern speech which is funny, the matter of a gap yea...

Re: Applying for 2013

Hi Dorothy, Yes my dd has accepted her place at chi uni now so its all systems go. We went to Chichester over the weekend and had a full campus tour of both sites as we never went to an open day there and dd didn't get to see everything on her audition day back in January. We were both very impresse...

Re: Applying for 2013

It's looking like a gap year for ds, a no from GSA and just has RADA left next week, at least he can start planning for next year. I was wondering if anyone has any info re student loans, one of the options for ds next year maybe an HND Acting course at the local college which has a very good reput...

Re: Applying for 2013

Just heard dd has a place at Laines. She is so excited. Now for funding audition. Anyone else going to that one? She is almost 5ft 10 and when we have asked about if her height will hold her back, everywhere said not really. She is nicknamed legs at college lol. Fingers crossed she doesn't fall at ...

Re: Applying for 2013

It's interesting about the btech vs A levels nigelben. My dd was having this dilemma 2yrs ago. In the end she chose the btech as she wanted to be "doing", instead of sat at a desk writing about it. I feel she has learnt a lot in the last 2yrs and that it has given her a good idea of what t...

Re: Applying for 2013

Completely agree re the feedback. We requested it via e mail from Central as were told they did that on request. But two months later am still waiting for it. Other places said no,they didn't offer any feedback. They sit there and writes notes about you,while you perform for them for a fee ,of betwe...

Re: Applying for 2013

Thanks Dorothy, that's really kind of you. DS didn't get a recall to Bristol Old Vic :( first time he seems to have been quite downhearted. At least they got back to him really quickly unlike Manchester Met, 4 weeks after his recall!! He's still not absolutely sure which song to sing for GSA, think...

Re: Applying for 2013

Well DS had his Bristol Old Vic audition yesterday, he really liked it there and was pleased with how it went. It would be great for him to get in, not only from the excellent reputation but also financially as we live in Bristol!! Again, we're realistic, as I think BOV is notorious for taking olde...

Re: Applying for 2013

Thanks everyone for your best wishes for dd. I hope next year is not as traumatic for me least. :( Such a long journey back for her on her own. Just want to give her a hug and she won't be back until about midnight. That's a shame for her but she had done so well nether the less to get a recall. So...
