Just firmed City and put Anglia Ruskin as insurance! :biggrin:

Just a quick question though: say if I put an AS module as pending on my ucas form but I then decide I don't want to resit it anymore is that still possible? Thanks :smile:

i am a high school student and i am considering optometry as a profession, so if you dont mind me asking,
what did you get in your gsces and a levels? :rolleyes:
Hey guys. Just got an email from Cardiff (desired first choice) I don't have an offer after all. They must have sent me my letter by mistake :frown: I don't really know what to do. The admissions person was so blunt. She just said 'oh, just looked at your application and were still making a decision' but I had my letter :frown: :frown:
Any ideas on what to do about it?
I was thinking of emailing Richard Earlams directly instead of the general admissions office. Thoughts?

:frown:
Ahhh, just spoke to Richard - theres been a blockage with my application in the transition from uni to Ucas
I do have an offer after all :biggrin:
it'll be on UCAS within a few days :biggrin:

Well, I know it isn't me you've asked, but I got A*A*AAAAAAAB at GCSE (A*s and As in sciences, As in humanities, B in French).
At AS I got BBCC. Predicted ABB for A2. Offer from Anglia, rejected by Manchester. Waiting on Ulster and Caley.

Not as far as I'm aware.
They haven't replied to me yet.

I reckon they're waiting until AFTER THE DEADLINE (I keep repeating this but no-one seems to listen) before replying. They're like Ulster in that respect.
Offers should begin to come in next week.

If it was anywhere else i probably would have let it go, but this is my first choice so :biggrin::biggrin:
Anyway

Just got my third offer from Cardiff - AAA :biggrin:

Did anyone else get an offer without an interview? I was under the impression that they always interview for optom :s-smilie:

I got an offer same-day from Anglia and I know there's a few other people who do.
I'm pretty sure there's some city offers floating around too, but I didn't apply there so I don't know.

Shift Dress with Blazer
People were quite casual though.
like black skinny jeans with a nice top
although some in suits.
just be comfortable really?
