Just paid my accommodation pre-payment! Elgar Court! :biggrin:

Also just bought the Freshers Week Gold Package :woo:

I'm far from an all out partier, but this should be an amazing week! Have to go for the lot and just have fun! :biggrin:

It's only 20 quid more than the bronze and you get Tinchy & Pendulum.. unmissable :tongue:

Hey guys, sorry to butt in on the thread :smile:

I'm applying for Birmingham for History and got pretty disappointing AS Results : BCC

As you guys have been through the whole Bham experience, what are they like on AS? Is there a chance I could still be given an offer?

Thanks :biggrin:

Hey guys, sorry to butt in on the thread :smile:

Would need to have a stunning PS and reference as expected to make up for it. I applied to AAA courses in ucas 10-11 with ACC at AS from june09 and got offers, so is possible :smile:

My AS was a bad year :biggrin:

But everything besides my grades made up for it.
