That's only half the truth - you can get "drafted", but NOT to the army - they can only have you cook or work in a hospital, but never actually go into combat or use weapons :-)

Now, how did we get here again? :D

let's just stay there  ;)

Yesterday there's been a so called "Studientag" at the university in Regensburg. There you were able to inform yourself about what to do after your A-levels. And now I'm seriously thinking about abroad community service ("anderer Dienst im Ausland") to avoid military service.

Has anyone of you already had any experiences with something like that?

nILS: Why souldn't I go to university?

Do it. Go to any english-speaking country. For some reason 85% of all employers tend to think that "Auslandserfahrung" is more valuable than anything else at the moment. Stupid fucks.

Um, this is a joke really. GO TO UNIVERSITY if you can! I just put that in there to show how college/studying/classes keep me from doing what I really want to do ;-)

Instead of military service, I served in a school for physically handicapped pupils. Beside of some supporting jobs, I gave computer and music lessons. I also developed some dedicated sensors for replacing a mouse or computer keyboard, etc - was really a great time, that I don't want to miss.

So, thats really a contrast to military service ;)

Alright.. I didn't take to quite serious anyway  ;)

I think I'll study electrical engineering at the TUM. They said that they'll take anyone who has passed the A-levels  -  no matter how bad you were  ;D
