MT Audition Course - help

I'm a current BAPA student and I have come into the course with next to no dance training. They do stream the dance, so less experienced dancers get taught at a level that is manageable. That's not to say it isn't hard, there's a lot to learn, but you're not going to be put in classes amongst people who are way ahead of you. From what I know of WAAPA, I believe our degree has a slightly bigger humanities emphasis, but the teachers aree fantastic, and we do have the advantage that being so close to Melbourne we get plenty of professionals who are currently working in melbourne to come up and work with us. Already, two of this years graduating students have been cast in a major musical which opens next year, and all of them were picked up by agents after their Cabarets in first term. I'm mystified as to why people think that BAPA doesn't have a good reputation... The only thing that I can think of is that the course is much younger than WAAPAs and just hadn't had the time to establish a "Name". The quality of the course is great. If you need proof, come and see the graduating classes production of BatBoy (runs until this Sunday). It is awesome.
