Having done my groundschool at OAA (and wished i hadn't), clanger is absolutely right that not ALL integrated students are rich chinless wonders spending daddy's money... but quite a lot ARE! to be honest the same to a lesser extent can be said for modulars as well.

My best friend has just been made redundant and he isn't getting a look in anywhere right now. He was integrated and now has 1000 hours twin jet time and can't get an interview.

I think the "daddy's money" comments are cheap shots, but to be honest i think it's unlikely that 18 year old Afraz has managed to save up 70k+ for an integrated course doing his paper round!

I personally have no problem with anyone doing whatever they like, what i do have a problem with is someone spamming up the forum asking the same question over and over again and being an irritating fart particularly when masquerading a statement as a question.

like this:

"Surely integrated students will get preferential treatment, am i right about this?"

over and over and over again!
