Well, I'm in Oakville, but realistically I can't do any magic in the less than 48 hours you have...
I'll send you a PM with my phone number.

all i need is about an hour or two to go over a few things. if it doesnt work out with the local guy, i'll give you a call. i have most of it down, there are just a few 'stumpers' that i would like to fully understand. i don't imagine they expect you to ace this test, but i want to anyway.

Best of luck to you! - And good direction!
I have 2 years of a Forest Eng degree and need about 13 course to finish a mech Eng degree. And while I would have liked to finish this - the cards and an EX - played with plans, Besides - once you have the degree - you cannot fix anything. Experince is a chairmate of mine who has become the only guy in Canada to make a fire truck that would not hold water. Kinda of a self defeating purpose!
I perfer my grey hair to the ring!
Cheers - and go get it! Centurion

hi guys,
thanks for all the support
TDIMeister: looks like... but i don't want to get too ahead of myself. i applied late so there is a possibility that there are no spots left, although the program director said if i did well on the tests, they should have a spot for me.
also... . my girlfriend and i are in the midst of some hardcore (uncomfortable pause... . . . . . .) renovations of the new house she's going to move into, and i plan to join her there in late august, so either way i think that this fall might not be the best time for me to head off to europe, just too much going on.. but i can't wait!!

Good for you, Lanny!!
As it turns out, I am also applying to go back to school. It's kind of a weird order for me to do things: Do Bachelors degree, work for 5 years, get P. Eng status (later this year), and go to graduate school (next year, possibly).
All the best to you! We will need another big Diesel GTG before the summer's out!

having a bout with some cold feet it seems like...
i got my acceptance letter on the friday, and the monday my boss calls me into his office and tells me i got the raise i've been waiting for since january (but that its not retroactive!! :evil: )
so now, i'm finally making the salary here i've been wanting to make the past 2 yrs... but i want to go back to school!
i'm trying to convince myself that i need to sign that acceptance letter and drive it in by 5pm tomorrow (deadline) or i will be kicking myself all year long for not going to school. money is great, but i'm really losing interest in doing a 9-5 web job. i have a day to decide what i'm going to do. sign a college acceptance letter and a job resignation... or sit tight for another year working in a cubicle for better money.............
