Fair play. Be a shepherd not a sheep and all that but begs the questions....why apply?


I'm guessing he would have taken it if he'd not been accepted by the LSE, which was his preferred choice. This happens: statistically the LSE is for most courses the more popular institution.

Also, that's not what "beg:undefined: the question" means.

Choosing LSE over Cambridge, not a big deal

Why did you apply to universities other than Kent?
If he wasn't planning on going to Cambridge why did he even apply? Only wanted to get into the news, no doubt.

That's why he applied to Cambridge, so he could go there if he didn't get into the ones he preferred.

So, in essence, the article is pointless.

Because the Daily Mail does about 50% news, 50% non-news. You only need to look at their horrendous showbiz section to see such inspiring titles as "So-and-so stops and has lunch" "[insert famous name here] ties his shoes wrong". Tbf, this is a lot more newsworthy than about 40% of the ****e they print, although I agree it shouldn't be there anyway.

So much jealousy on this thread, its not a good look people, stop having a hissy fit just because he actually utilized his right to pick and choose between universities.

Oxbridge isnt the be all and end all, theres more to life, maybe your parents didnt teach you that :colonhash:
Oh, Daily Mail. I've been watching Ascot, and Kate Middleton's mum was in the royal procession. She wasn't, however in the same carriage as The Queen. Take a look at their frontpage headline.

"'I was accepted into all of my universities. Cambridge was my second choice. I chose LSE because the syllabus looks more interesting.'"

:rofl:

Oh Daily Fail, what WOULD we do without your horrendous journalism?

He's a pagan. Watch him get shanked tomorrow in Bow lol


Common Nowdays everones says he a pagan.your a pagan,I'm a pagan,shes a pagan but do we know exactly what pagan means
Since people evidently didn't like my first point but won't take it up with me, I might as well write myself a little defence.
If he applied to Cambridge, happy to go to Cambridge but at the end of the day preferred the LSE - that's fine, that's normal, and I couldn't care less. If he applied to Cambridge only because it's 'Cambridge,' not because it's a university he actually likes, that's when my original comment comes into play. This is how the article made it sound.
Okay? :rolleyes:

So they are privy to secret knowledge then?

Are you insinuating that there's graduates out there who know stuff no other person does?
MC Franklyn. I enjoy that name.
Why did he apply if it has no music scene?

Scumbag.
More you talk about it, more the publicity works. Like all celebrity news, if you don't like it merely wave it off with the most powerful emotional tool known to humans - apathy. Let him fade into obscurity (I still can't remember his name, MC somethingorother)
