Thanks! I really appreciate it!  It was a long haul but I'm finally here and looking forward to school and the challenges that lie ahead.

Same here. Got it this morning and am now wearing a thin little blue stripe instead of three chevrons and a leaf.  Cheers to new roads!

Late to the party, but I received my offer for PSEL on 21 May 2015.  The message was cut on 07 May 2015, my orderly room did not do the best job of getting it to me, I found out through digging and bothering my WPSO.  I accepted and have not received a posting message as of yet.

I think he is refering to this topic: https://army.ca/forums/threads/114640.0

If you maintain your nutrition it will ensure the maintenance of your progress and also give the right fuel for your body to get better :)

Don't stress too much about how you felt after the interview.  I have done two UTPNCM interviews so far (with no success as of yet) and no matter how much I knew about any of the trades I was applying for, I was still told "I could know more."  I'm not saying they were incorrect, I am just...

This is exactly how I feel. Also:  Weight is not as well balanced with fitness as it is with food.  If people took the time to think about what they put into their bodies first, they wouldn't have to stress so much about how to get it out of their bodies with copious amounts of extra PT.

I'm in the same boat here.  Applying for PSO seems to be pretty slim pickin's!  Don't shoot the messenger but I called the Education and Commissioning Clerk at D Mil C yesterday and she told me that if I haven't recieved a message yet, to have good luck for next year's application.  Take 3 for me!

Excellent advice.

For this program and many other cadet type programs, I would pay more tax.  Or just divert my part of the tax that goes to Welfare and EI abuse.

My situation is really messed up. Got a last minute booking on a course that I need to be assessed on before I can get an offer for UT and may not get that offer if I don't do well on said course.  I feel worse for the supposed 3 other guys waiting for me to take this course as they all have...

Yeah, I don't know.  There is a strong chance I'm getting my Sgt's this year but if I get into UT, they might just skip it.  I would def take both but UT is what I really want!

Awesome! Congrats again!

Congrats! That's awesome! What trade did you get?
