Hi everyone,


Although I didn't get any offers for medicine, I did get two offers for medical sciences at Edinburgh (B100) and Newcastle (B902). I was wondering, which university is better in your opinion?

Thanks, and congratulations to anyone who has an offer.

Depends what you're looking for, I know nothing about the courses but I'd choose Newcastle over Edinburgh since I prefer the city, but Edinburgh is probably more prestigious, if that's a factor you're considering.

This is one my Spanish teacher recommended to the class: http://www.robobraille.org/frontpage
I've only tried it out once and it seems to pronounce words fairly well. The speech is just a little disjointed, but that's understandable. I hope it's at least some use to you.

shush you, I am sure you will do awesome and I am guessing you have some room to make mistakes seeing that I know one guy who only needs a high D to get an A overall. All the best, so confused as I saw some A level threads circulating around. :sigh:

Ohh, and you firmed barts! Congrats. :party:

Hey you. :smile: Missed you.

THANK YOU. :biggrin: The official ceremony is in 2 days.

Except for bio, everything was brutal. I am thinking its either due to really high expectations/paranoia or it was actually horrible. :cry2:

Hows revision going?
