Hey Dakk,

Yeah - I have heard that the course is really oversubscribed, probably because it is such a good course, recognised worldwide. I'm just waiting to hear back from the university because the course i'm doing and the one they offer have a different teaching structure, so i'm still waiting to see if they are compatible anyway.
Don't get me wrong, I am aware of the dangers in S.A, but I was under the impression that the university takes pretty good safety precautions to help combat crime, esp rapes in the university area. Nowhere is 'pretty safe' worldwide, so maybe I used the wrong terminology there, but yeah - with all the recent/current violence going on at the moment, its food for thought, but I am still very interested in studying there.
Can I ask where bouts you're from, do you still live in S.A?
