GBB,
Dont see the point of your argument, there are probably hundreds here who dont even know what <wasta> is to begin with, besides we all know what goes on and please lets not forget there are so many out there who have worked their guts out to prepare for this assessment like i did every evening after long shift at work and every lunch break and tell you what, those guys marking our exams could clearly identify who has done so, they are real proffessionals at what they do, even if someone got into the programme through preferences it will not be easy to justify how the ones which deserve the most didnt get it.
i believe in working hard for something you need real bad.
