    I've got an unconditional to Strathclyde for Business N100
    Applied on 29th November, heard back January 31st
    Anyone else heard any good news from the Business School?
    Me, me, me!! Just got a conditional offer for Business, which is to easy to be achieved, so Strathclyde is probably going to be my insurance. Is it your firm choice?
    Yes, I've read many positive reviews not only for the Business School, but for the University itself.

    Btw does anyone know what is the difference between their ''Business'' and ''Management'' course, because these two usually form the same degree and syllabus, plus the entry requirements are exactly the same...

    Conditional offer for Business Enterprise at Strathclyde Although I am a bit confused that the conditions are "proof and evidence of Abitur and TOEFL".

    Definitely considering Strathclyde now

    Recieved unconditional offers for MChem Chemistry and MChem Chemistry with teaching.
    Will most likely be doing chemistry with teaching.

    Do we receive reading lists/book recommendations for our course and if we do, when is this usually? Also because I'm doing a chemistry course will I be told what lab equipment (lab coat, safety glasses,etc) i'll need to buy?

    Thanks

    You'll need a lab coat, safety glasses and a spatula. Oh and a hardback lab book with graph paper on the opposite side. All of which you can buy on campus fairly cheap I used to be ACCE, so did the chem labs last year :P
    I could download this year's 1st year chemistry handbook (with all the module descriptors and reading lists) and send it to you, if you so desire?

    Thanks! Think I'll just buy the lab stuff once I'm there then if its going to be cheaper. I think I managed to find that First Year Handbook you're talking about, but there doesn't seem to be veey many books on it...think theres only two under the Maths module description then another two or three under the Chemistry modules. Is it only the books mentioned on that that we should get?

    Tbh you can get by without the books, as they provide you with notes anyway. Better to just get them from the library when you need them tbh. Much cheaper.

    not sure, either this or glasgow (want to do economics and management)

    the difference is that the business n100 is just to get into the business school, it isnt an exact course... getting in allows you to choose any 5 subjects from within the business school (including management, economics, marketing etc.) but management is the exact course.
    By applying for Business N100 it gives you the choice to choose whatever business subjects you want, whereas if you apply for management you have to stick do that subject... i applied for N100 cause i wasnt exactly sure what i want to do, i didnt want to apply for management and not have as much flexibility to change it

    Is there a "law handbook" ?! Could you do the same for me, download the 1st year law handbook. I'd be very grateful, because I'm currently holding an offer and I'm considering Strathclyde ...

    Can you shed some light about the law course as a whole ? I realise that you're doing a different degree, but still probably you can say something or tagg someone you know to answer ! Thank you in advance !
