If you are confident in the knowledge you obtained from the start guide and your athletic ability, then I'd say go for it. I myself would wait cause I have the cold.

Here is my adivse, and some info from my son that was there in the winter....if you feel ready then go now. As far as shoveling snow and not having to do the confidence chamber...LOL you will still have to do that! My son was there during a big snow storm..he got "snow watch" which I thought was really funny as even here at home he always HATED to shovel snow unless it was to clear his baseketball court, and yet still had to do it there! Yes he wrote home about having to shovel snow...all I could do was laugh!

Thanks for the info! I was reading a thread on here awhile back and someone said they didn't do the confidence chamber and others weighed in and thought it was because it was winter. I guess that was not reliable :P

As someone who was there from Nov to March last year - go in the spring. The winter gear they make you wear is really annoying, you will probably be shoveling snow, and you will still do the confidence chamber.
