   I wouldn't worry about getting in and not being able to do the job, if that happens its the fault of the people who hired you. =P If you get in some place, they are pretty confident you can do the job.

   You'll have leads letting you know exactly how the models need to be for whatever proejct you work on, just show you are a competent model and texture artist. It's understandable when the new guy takes a short while to learn the pipeline. You do plan on talking to your teammates don't you?

   If you fear you don't know what to do over there - most studios i know do PLAN in ~3 weeks of tools/pipeline learning for every newcomer. No worries you don't get the hang in that timespan. And if you do something wrong you can always just ask the person next to you for advise.

   Worst case scenario, you learn a ton and you're one step closer to putting an amazing portfolio piece together. Even if you don't make anything you want show off you still will learn a TON. At the bare min it would be a really good idea to browse other peoples threads and learn from their headaches.
