    Getting 3 A's?
    Hey everyone.. hope you all done amazingly!

    Was shocked (like the most shocked ever...I've actually been confused most the day!) that I got AAA...

    It says in the prospectus that you get £4000 a year if you achieve 3A's..depending on your home finances.

    So have I definitely got this? lol.

    Does this work for non-freshers as well? £4000 sounds great to me...

    is this £4000 after rent? that doesnt sound right to me.

    After rent I have about £700 left to spend for the whole year

    Thankfully QM has some of the highest starting wages for postgrads available, otherwise I imagine ill be assraped by the Lloyds TSB horse for the rest of my life as Im already skint.
