Hardly the case!

Colonies, from my observation, are as competitive and selective as Formal Recruitment. The colony needs to select the strongest class possible, to form a strong chapter from the outset and to be "competitive" with the established chapters. There is so much at stake and so much that goes into MS, and the interview process is designed - no, I've said enough.

That mindset of "I didn't succeed in FR, I'll try the colony" seldom, if ever, works out for the PNM.

You better believe it.
