Re: Successful Exeter students/applicants, could you please answer these questions?Home student
3a*, 3a, 3b, 3c (nice and easy to remember xD)
Predicted ABB - A in English Language, B in biology, B in psychology.
Offer to study biology (c100) so long as I make the ABB.
I've been to the southwest a few times (including Exeter) on holiday, so I loved the are before I even saw the university, but a recent visit combined with all the investments being made and its great reputation, clinched it - I'm working my arse off despite ongoing illness to up my ****ty AS grades and get in. By all accounts, its a great uni.
