Whilst your exuberance is perfectly understandable, this isn't Hollywood or a computer simualtion.
Prior to "pushing tin" you will have to work harder than you ever done in your life just to maintain the required level of competency throughout the course, then, if you have qualified, you have the small matter of validating and maintaining that competency.
I can assure that if you do make it, use of the phrase "pushing tin" or any similar expressions will earn you "dork status" amongst all your colleagues.

I wish you the best of luck, but calm down, keep your head down and gob shut.
