    Is anyone here going to UEA to study economics and put it as their firm choice?

    We really need some kind of advertising campaign.. they have adverts on buses here to promote UEA, things like "Born in Bradwell, made at the UEA". They're clearly going the wrong way about it though.
    I'm trying to think up a catchy slogan relating to quite how good looking it is on a whole, but I may have to get back to it.. :ninja: My brain, it ain't functioning!
    Have you got anything or your brain still not functioning?, bet the lab coast would help!
    I'll take it Bradwel isl not a very nice place then?

    I'm going to firm it next week after my visit day to hull, to make sure that's going to be my insurance, what happens once you firm it?

    It's alright, it's just a village close to where I live, but I think their whole slogan is so wrong. They need to be more direct. Something like UEA WILL MAKE YOU HOT, COME STUDY WITH US KTHXBYE

    Does anyone know how flexible UEA are with offers. I've been offered AAB, if I get the equivalent in points (eg A*AC) would they be likely to reject me?

    Oh okaay. Honestly nothing happens apart from UCAS sending you a letter which is a screenshot of your replies on track. I haven't recieved any letters from UEA or Essex which is my insurance, but I wonder if they recieve your jan results :|
    Have you been to UEA visit day?

    Coventry
    Queen Mary London
    Derby
    Middlesex
    UEA is my first choice.

    theyre all slightly different from eachother though i.e. Global Change: Environment, Economy and Development. But they all have very similar modules.
    How long does it take you to get to Norwich?

    Yeah I saw that as well on Wednesday, Im not sure what accommodation I want but we cant apply for them until May. To be honest I dont think I will go there until we start since its like a 2 hour drive from my house but what I didnt like was the concrete buildings which didnt look nice but loved the campus though

    I'll probably wear jeans and a hoody on wednesday- not much point in dressing up if the offer's in the bag.

    but theyre going to ask me questions and in the letter it says they may lower the offer to BBB if i do good in my questions so do u still think i should wear jeans and a hoody or jeans and a nice shirt and converse shoes

    As far as I'm aware it's not really an interview so much as a chat - after all, you have already got the offer. No harm in making a good impression though, I'd go for something a bit smart/casual, you might feel a bit silly all suited up if nobody else has bothered :p:
