    I told you so. (look back at the original thread and you'll see) People almost always do better than they think they did.

    Excellent work. Congratulations!

      Well, I've also applied for Tampere's and Joensuu's translation depts (Joensuu's is in Savonlinna, WTF is it with making my life harder anyway?), and if I get the Tampere place I'm going there, obviously (It's a real university instead of just a department and it's not in Kouvola)

            Azazel, I don't know. It's possible I get bored fast and want something else out of my life. We'll see.. It's definitely not out of my plans.

              Yeah I do. It's happened to me and students I've taught numerous times.

              When you get to university people often have higher standards for themselves since they are used to doing well. I passed my German course this year by some margin despite thinking that I'd failed miserably.

              The pressure of exams tends to amplify one's sense of failure.

                  Agathong, looking back, you really did say that. But you couldn't know, since the standards were high and I didn't complete the whole exam so.. but you get to say you said so .

                  I'll be specializing in software programming, or so it seems now.

                        Awesome news Pekka.

                        Glad to hear that you pulled off one of your goals.

                            sounds great.

                            I wonder if I could get into a university there. They probably want you to pay money though don't they?

                                Pekka!!!

                                We did it!!!



                                I must say you called it right on the nose! Neither of us got our first choice, but evrything is working out great (even for the better in my case) anyways!!!

                                Right on man! If Finnish Unis are anything like American ones, your gonna love it... Ive never seen such a large concentration of beautiful women in my life.

                                The ratio of boy to girls here:

                                1:1

                                The ratio of attractive girls to not so attarctive girls:

                                3:1 ( )

                                The Fall semester student population:

                                54,000 (biggest in the country)

                                If i did my math right, that means there are 20,250 beautiful women in the space of a square mile
                                ================================================== ======================

                                anyway, have you looked at anywhere in the US that you would want to transfer to?
