Sorry to ruin the thread's officialness, but you've already got an offer from City?
They haven't even acknowledged me, or anyone else in my year that has applied.

Course: Economics
Grades you need: ABB
Predicted Grades:A*AB/AAA (teachers and I still deciding)

City will be my Insurance, but if I get a change of heart at the last minute and dont want to go to Loughborough, Birmingham, York, SOAS then City is my calling! What's more it's got brill career prospects!

Hi

The admin at city is unbelievably bad, very poorly organised.
Lecturers are rubbish, not even worth coming, you will fall asleep in all lectures. I regret going to this uni, pity cant change uni now!

I live at home, I dunno about accommodation, sorry. All the things you see about the courses on City's website and at prospectus are completely untrue, and against the facts, don't be influenced by the things I say, make your own decision.

i got an offer today!

This offer is subject to you obtaining
A minimum of 320 UCAS Tariff points

so does that mean, i can get a pass in the Welsh Bac (aka general studies) which is 120 points. then make up the 200 points from my A2 subjects?

So today is an offer day for City. Damn, I didn't get anything, not even an aknowledgement (do they even send those?).

Those with offers, what date did you send your application?
