Some good news to pass along...

Thanks to an informant in the this year's GGD, have the following figures to share:

This year the programme is 25 people, up from 15/16 year one then 21 year two.

In year three, they had 100-125 applicants.

So assuming their target for year four is the same, they will probably admit say 35-40 expecting 25 to show up.

I had 12:1 odds. You guys have more like 3:1! That's not even taking into account the Global-Financial-Crisis...
