    Oh right!
    Really hoping I get the grades for soton. It's probably my first choice. Where else did you apply?
    Yeah me too, would be nice!
    I applied to Sheffield, UEA, Manchester and Oxford Brookes as well, how about you?

    yupp I never received an acknowledgement actually. though some home students did receive one in the post. but it's only from certain departments. no worries!

    Got an AAB/A*BB offer for BSc Mathematics.. was always planning on putting it as my insurance with UCL as my firm, but having been to a Soton visiting day I fell in love with the place and now will probably firm it.

    Would be great to get to know some people before I go.

    I was also planning on originally firming with UCL if they gave me an offer, but I've jumped ship too. I loved Southampton.
