100% of those who do not apply do not get in. If keen on the military route start contacting DFR in year 11.

Indeed you are correct. My phraseology left something to be desired.

Definitely apply to the RAAF by all means, but the point I was making was not to have the RAAF as one's ONLY option as the acceptance rate is very low.

Clarified?

Yeah.

I've just been astounded when I talk to some younger than me (I am not old) who want to do things but due to a perceived low likelihood of success do not even try. Which I will never understand. Obviously do not rely on succeeding in a particular path and have back up plans to back up plans, but I find things only become impossible when we have that perception.
