Got all the application done, took the RT (got highest score in my group 8) ), 3 days before the interview I buggered my back up, doc said I had to wait 6 bloody months for it to heal propperly so now I have to get back into shape :evil: So I decided to join the TA for a bit and get a bit of experience before I go and have another go.

I sent my application form off today. But even if that all goes well I'm in the same boat as Jordiman, basic'll be put off until after I've finished college next year.

Stupid bloody A levels....

:D

Likely going to apply 2-3 months after my 17th birthday. If not, then some time in the first half of 2004.
