NYMT/BYMT 2021 (2)

Continuation of the NYMT/BYMT 2021 thread because the other one got full!!!

I think the answer to that would be no as I’ve entered shows into that exam before and the marking criteria are for singing, acting & dance.

thought that was probably the case. well we'd better get her on stage at some point then!!

Huge congratulations to your DS @minimits, so pleased for him (and you)! 👏👏😄

@minimits
Huge congratulations 🎉

So exciting

Waiting patiently for my DD performer outcome for Billy.... might have to saddle up for a nervous few days!!

First time doing anything like this, so proud of my DD reaching this stage whatever the outcome 🤗

Good luck to all your DC!!

Fantastic news @minimits , one of my students will be in the ensemble with him. No news on anyone else here yet!

Wow @minimits I lost track and thought you'd had a no sorry - fantastic news, well done!!

My kids are all at different schools and my email keeps pinging with the end of week newsletters, individually... STOP IT!!

Fingers and toes crossed for all you talented ones🤞🏼🤞🏼💗hope your waiting is over very soon with happy news.

Dd got a Trinity Grade 8 Distinction too with Paperboy when she was in it. Is it useful for anything... colleges etc, was wondering what the purpose was of getting them?

Grade 8 distinction would be worth UCAS points when it comes to applying for university I would imagine! We do LCM and those certainly are.

Quick google confirms this so definitely worth having, nice bonus!

A distinction at Grade 8 Trinity is worth 30 UCAS points so definitely worth putting on university forms :-)

@minimits I am DELIGHTED for your son. Huge congratulations, wonderful news. Nothing here from Hunchback .... in her heart she knows it’s a no, but I’d love to have confirmation tonight!

The group exams are not UCAS accredited because the production as a whole is graded, not the individual candidate.

@Comefromaway so do they give them a different type of certificate then, which wouldn't be eligible for UCAS points?

Obviously we have never done BYMT so I'd have no idea about this, just what normal grade 8 exams are worth (DC taking it next term). It did seem a little unfair given the work that goes in to grade 8!

Yes, it’s like the difference between taking Grade 6 RAD ballet (accredited) & Grade 5 RAD Class Award (not accredited)

For Trinity Group a group certificate is awarded then each individual candidate gets a certificate with their name on. These certificate don’t have the OFQUAL logo on.

Awww thank you @Pinkstargazer12 don’t give ip hope! Thank you @aplo-no idea what he’ll be doing but happy to just be in! Wishing the best for your DS’s!

Before we moved house I could have uploaded a picture to show the difference as I still had DD’s but she was 7 years old at the time and she’s since done Grade 8 individual LAMDA so her Grade 1 group Trinity is goodness knows where!

@Pinkstargazer12 Don't forget, even if not successful for hunchback everyone in final recalls will also be considered for the workshop (A Kiss for Cinderella) so it's not over by a long way...

Anyone heard about Henrietta performers?!?!!😬😬😬😬😳

Anyone had a no yet????

Nothing here...

Or here 😬
I need to get a grip. I have things to do and I can’t sit refreshing my emails all night!!! 😆😆

No news is good news?!?!?!

I think in the case of Henrietta, no new is no news - so far! Argh!

On twitter nymt say they’re still looking for a d/deaf actor to share quasi role....

They have double cast the role of Henrietta- my student is sharing it with three shows for each performer. No other news here though.

We have heard nothing from our friends who are in for Henrietta and Billy. So I guess no news is no news..
