    Probably not haha but it would be good to talk about the course and stuff before we go! (if we get in ahhh) I might just make one anyway!

    Hey guys got a couple of questions

    1st , are neuroscience courses likely to come up in clearing at the likes of Nottingham and kings ? If so would entry requirements be the same as they are on the ucas website or would they lower them slightly ?


    2nd what sort of jobs could I get in a career in neuroscience ?

    I'd appreciate if you could quote me when you reply because otherwise I won't knowifyou have haha

    Thanks in advance to anyone that helps

    1:

    As far as I'm aware they were not there last year, though it is hard to predict clearing, you could email admissions and ask, they might have more of an idea.

    2:

    All sorts - patent law with a phD, pharma, academia, medicine etc. Depends on you and what you want I suppose.

    Did you get the email from Dr Cook? He's pretty awesome.
    I'm still waiting to get an email about accommodation :/

    Yeah, he seems really cool; the Christmas Day offer emails were pretty amazing.

    I wouldn't worry too much, it said somewhere that if you've not had an email yet then you will be getting an accommodation offer as long as you are eligible?

    I didn't really think I'd get in, so I spent the summer not preparing to go to Uni. The only thing I'm up on is the reading. How ready d'you think you are?

    I'm just worried I might not get accommodation since I already live in London, but I guess I'll just wait :/

    I've done a bit of reading, read a few of the books off the reading list and I got the big Neuroscience book off of Amazon - it really is huge. No idea how I'll get through the rest of the books I have but I'll try... I must admit, I'm slightly worried that I don't know my stuff perfectly - I can't exactly recite a textbook but here's hoping no one else can.
