Right as you may know im 17. This means that I'm applying to university at the moment. The last date I can apply by is January 16th.

This is the course I want to do at my first choice university (for kurpters and ravens benefit as laffer/kami have already seen) http://www.abertay.ac.uk/Courses/CDetails.cfm?RID=1&CID=185

The points requirement is 280 which is near impossible to get from my current studies the highest I can get is 300 but thats 3 A's (kurpter might know of this stuff - others dont worry. Basically I know i will be slighty short on points requirement (failing maths last year really screwed things up and we are made to do a subject that no university accepts called General Studies but never mind). This leaves me with basically 1 option to have relevant experience. I know not many other students going for the places will have experience in C or C++ given there 'toughness' so if i excel and even have something to show them then I should stand out.

Basically this is a request for any help in learning the langauages and having any relevant experience towards the course.

Laffer has already offered to help me learn langauages and help him work on Midnight BSD with him and whom ever else will be working on it.

Im very serious about going to this university (basically the MIT/Oxford for computer games) the course holds the highest points requirement in the whole university. You may think that basically 3 monthes to learn such a language/s is impossible but im willing to try, I have a friend who is also wanting to learn language (C++ probably) and me and him competing against each other will make me want to get better.

Any help will be repayed
