    What unis you applied to?
    I've applied to Brookes, Cardiff and Queens Belfast for Architecture and UCL for Fine Art. I applied last year to 5 arch courses so i already know that it's not a fast process. And i saw that you thought Brookes don't interview or request a portfolio, they do. They ask for a digital p/folio and then they usually interview although sometimes they give you an offer without one but only in rare circumstances. Where else have you applied? Any questions about the process, just ask and i'll do my best to answer them!

    Re: Oxford Brookes 2012
    I have been thinking and I was adamant about going to OBU to study at the Business School, however, I am accepted as well at Reading Uni, at the Henley Business School, at the moment I was researching the grades the unis got in The Guardian and Reading is on 11 while OBU on 34. I know I shouldn't rely on these scores, I went to OBU and I liked the uni but i haven't seen RU. Did anyone who visited both or knows people studying at both tell me which one is better in terms of academic performance, employment and facilities? I have to mention that I would be doing a sandwich course at both. Thanks
