In South America where we are grouped the chances seem to be much lower
Yeah, apparently the chances in 2014 for my island was 0.002% chance of winning lol. Like that is so much bullshit as compared to Africa and Europe that have lots winners every year.

Not selected! But the feeling of waiting and expecting something makes you feel like a child again

That's nonsense. The chance is the same across the region.

I guess you are correct those regions are larger than ours so it may seem like that.

Couple years ago - 1,667 people applied from my island. Four were selected. I don't even know why I'm even checking this cuz all it is doing is pissing me off.
I will be waiting for the statistics this year to see what the chances were based on my country.

Remember that the distribution of visas is done by regions and I don't think our SA region has the amount of applicants that you see in Africa for example. You also need to remember that is all based on luck and not on skills, experience or education.
I'm in OC and won 2018 with number 12XX, just in case something drastic happened and I didn't get an interview, I applied again for 2019 and won again this time with number 5XX.
Didn't win for 8 years then won twice in a row... Hopefully the 2018 win pans out. Congratulations to everyone who has won.

Congrats to the few who are selected, fingers crossed everything goes smoothly and you will be heading off to new adventures soon ! Am sorry to hear about those that didn't make it this year. Especially those of you who have been trying year after year. I am NOT SELECTED again this year. I thought I would be a bit of a mess as I really wanted this ( haha, like you all are just in it for laughs ! NOT !) but Im just kind of relieved that the wait is over and I can stop dwelling on 'what if'

One person’s bullsh^t is another person’s statistics.

I have popped back in here to say I am sorry to see the 'not selected' posts this morning, especially those who have been on here a while (was really hoping for you guys!). Take heart, take a breath and try to pop the experience behind you. There may be next year, there may be other ways (Canada is right next door eh? ). To you @Pierre82 , you have the most amazing attitude
And to the wise forum members and moderators a thank you in advance because I know you will now busily be helping all the new folks on their way to their interviews with advice.
All the best
