Re: King Edward Stourbridge???Really? Could you describe your experiences there and also if possible could you tell me what you subjects you studied there?(Original post by mickiesal)
Best decision I made was to go to that sixth form, I wouldn't be where I am now if I hadn't of gone there

Re: King Edward Stourbridge???It was just chilled, not bitchy because it was too big to know everyone and everyone's business, and I made some amazing friends there. It's not perfect, some teachers are bad etc, but it helped me get where I am today so I'm grateful. People that go there go because they want to learn and you sense that so it's just a better learning environment, but it's still really social. It's just a really good well rounded sixth form. I studied maths, geology and accounting and I did graphics AS(Original post by Hero-H)

Re: King Edward Stourbridge???Talk about jumping the gun... babysteps children, babysteps.(Original post by Kindred.Spirit)
Yep
OMG - Neurology is my second specialist choice because my uncle is a neurologist 
To be honest, most of my family are doctors. In fact, our family could run a whole hospital on it's own xD LMFAO
That's why I chose Cardiology - because it looks freaky, with bypass and doing open heart surgery and all...I can't decide between being a Cardiologist or Cardiac Surgeon - they both look so good XD
I'd love to do it but Medicine is top priority :] I actually made some remixes of songs, but they came out pretty crap ._.
Well...depends on what I get in the end really, but I think I have 80% chance that I'll go there, unless I get into Camphill or KEHS or something xD
Went to king eds many years back, I have mixed feelings... on the one hand Jim Sullivan the head of bio was an absolute boss. Whereas the teaching in other departments was questionable. Though, the benefit of that is that it will teach you independence, which is priceless preparation for University.
Reason I say babysteps is because in my first year we had a talk about medschool and 200+ people turned up. In the end of second year only around 6-7 people got in.
As for discussing specialities... lulz not even I know what I want to go into, and im alost there. So babysteps, there are many hoops you need to jump through to get there... many many many hoops
Best of luck to you all.
