UNSW

Gday Spaniard,

I haven't done the course but I will tell you what I know. In terms of people applying-getting in, the cut off UAI is around 76 so I don't think they are turning people away with a large pole so to speak. I will then go further and say that if you have the money, and can hold a decent conversation in the interview you will get a spot. As I said, the course is not hugely popular, I believe on average around 20-25 people per year but someone in the know can clarify.

I can't comment on the attitudes of the people but I see no reason why there would be an undercurrent of arrogance.

I don't believe there are any links between UNSW and Schoffies. The uni conduct all their flight training in-house with their own staff and a/c. Although they may x-hire an a/c from Schofields when things get busy, but once again someone will have to clarify this.

Regards,
SP
