It says that they will take experience into account if the person doesnt reach the grades. Basically if they really want you and you miss out on not alot of pionts they will most likely still take you! For the course ive been offered the grade offers range from BBB - AAB however people in the past have got in with somethink like BCC purely because the university was impressed with them (personal statement) and experience on what they have done over the years etc that makes them really want them.

I would not stress about it until the actual results day :) You can only do your best

Cook & Llewellyn are two blocks in a residential street (with a few houses/flats that are nothing to do with the uni in between the two). They have 40 people per block, so 80 people overall - but they're right across the road from Birks, where there's obviously lots of people living, and where there's a shop etc.

St David's is made up of basically two little streets of houses/flats that are all University-owned - no separate living rooms, but the layout of the houses is quite nice and it generally seems to have a pretty laid-back vibe to it. (Now it's getting sunnier I keep seeing people with the patio doors open, sitting out on the grass). It's bigger than Cook/Llew (I think a couple of hundred people live there), and right next door to Point Exe, which is also student accommodation (plus quite a lot of the houses along Bonhay Road are student houses), so quite a lot of people live round there. It's a bit closer to town, and there is actually a free minibus that gets you up to campus in the morning if you can't be bothered to walk (but it's not actually far). There are a couple of little shops nearby - and obviously it's handy for the station!

Does that help?

Very small world! We'll probably end up taking the same flights to/from the UK :)Conservation and Biodiversity, that's sounds really interesting! I'm doing Classical Studies, a little different from your degree haha. Why did you decide to go to the UK? If you don't mind my asking.

Ooh some other non-18 year olds! Yay. I won't be doing conservation, but animal behaviour but i'll be 23 by the time i go!

Good news - I tweeted the English Speaking Union and they responded that they are currently shortlisting for the scholarship. I hope we know the outcome by the end of the week.

By the way, if you don't mind me asking, are you eligible for both income criteria (42k and 16k) or just the higher one?

Is this with all P2P services, such as multiplayer games, etc?

Whatever societies you have an interest in.

I'm not going to say anything more, because the only societies you will enjoy will be the ones that attract your interest.

Go, have a walk around in freshers fair, get info on anything you think might be interesting, and go to as many taster sessions as possible.

Firmed too. Going to be the only mature student on the course it seems. Be kind! :$

Hi, I am going to Exeter for Medical Imaging in Sept :)

And I'm Chris, going into third year zoology (abroad).

You should be okay, I know many people who got in on softened grades but the key point is that you MUST get the A in geography if the rest are below the par.
That's what I've picked up on at least.

Anyway, there's two things I came here to say.
The first is that the zombie society is the best society you could ever join, because it is FUN. Seriously fun. Fun like you've never had fun before. I cannot sing the praise high enough.
The second is that there is a facebook page lurking about which is unofficial but has second years, first years and a bunch of freshers on there from Fal and Exeter uni.

I'll just leave it here to casually undermine the ambassadors scheme, sorry Laura ;)

Could you possibly let me know the outcome of what they said about changing to Psychology? I'm in the same situation. They offered me Sociology and Criminology instead of Law but its the Psychology part I'm interested in. I firmed the offer but I realise now Psychology is what I want to do now as my degree. Thanks :)
