Does it? What would it involve if you don't mind my asking?


It has a sort of listening test, i'm told. Shouldn't be too bad and I did listening tests as part of my music GCSE but it still sounds scary :tongue:

Ooh sounds fun! I'm sure someone, somewhere on the internet has posted more about it.


Waiting for responses is driving me mad! I think it's worse because I'm expecting a response from sheffield early, even though I only applied last friday! Ugh!

Got my offer, Biology AAB. They replied pretty early, about a week after my reference was finished and application sent off.


Congratulations! Well done.

Did you receive the offer today? Is Sheffield a top choice for you?
So exciting. You are the envy of thousands having such an early response! I may see you there, I applied for Zoology!

Congrats again! I'm checking track constantly like a loser, I checked at 3am this morning! :-)

hi guys,
i havent been able to visit sheffield univeristy and am wondering how much people would consider it a 'city' university? as ive been told differing things - some people say its all spread out among the city while others says although its in the city most buildings are together creating a 'central' area?? this is quite important to me as i initially thought i wanted a campus univeristy however everyone says how good the nightlife/city is - ahh decisions!!
I didn't really check out the city itself, but I got the impression most of the buildings were within the same area, and the accommodation didn't seem too far away either.

:lolwut:

25-30 minute down-hill walk every morning. You could take the bus, except you can't really if you've got a 9AM lecture since the traffic conditions will make you end up coming late. And don't forget the bus is 50p a pop and thanks to Murphy's Law you'll never have those 50p when you need them.

I dunno haha, I didn't go on the accommodation tour and perhaps I mixed up some normal houses for student accommodation, although the Opal 1 or whatever it was called didn't seem too far away when we drove past it on the way home...

Aren't you a bundle of laughs :|

It's not that bad at all, for me it's a 15-20 minute walk and I live right at the very back of Endcliffe. And you'll find you always have 50ps, and the 123 is a godsend when you have a 10am and you got up at 9.30. The 120 comes every 4 mins, and the 52. It really doesn't feel like your accommodation is that far away from uni :smile: even if you're in Ranmoor (which my best friend is) x

I got a really good impression of Sheffield and the physics department there when I went on the open day. :biggrin:

Heya, I'm applying to Sheffield for 2012 entry

Username: Roxas
Course: Chinese studies with Business Management

P.S I am so frightened! Sheffield is the only Uni I want to go to, the entry requirements are ABB, and that's what I am predicted :frown: I might do badly and not get in ahhh!
