Hey. I've applied for International Business with German. What's the course like? :smile:

Hey, really sorry for the late reply. Forgot my password and for some reason it came back to me just recently. The course is very good. It consists of 3 modules, a semester. 2 of which are core modules and the other can be chosen. My main Business module is a recap of all the topics i did in school last year, therefore i find it very boring and when it comes down to getting up for a lecture about stuff I've done for the past few years or staying in bed, the bed usually comes out on top. The other core topic that is an economics module which is quite interesting but rather complicated. Then i also picked modules in Geography which have been mind numbingly boring :s-smilie:

.

Overall though the course so far has been very enjoyable and i would definitely recommend it to you :rolleyes:

Dundee generally don't give out offers until after the deadline. You may have several weeks to wait still before you hear from them.

I know they're very annoying :frown:

Yeah they said that in mine too but they were shut until yesterday and when I phoned she said nobody was in who could answer my questions and she'd put the deadline on hold for me luckily!
So have you applied somewhere else instead?

Ahh thats good of them, alot of places would have been abit awkward aboout stuff like that, have you decided what you're going to do? Yes Glasgow, although i'm still pretty pissed, its harder to get in, its more expesive on the train, and although the course is still very good, its not quiete as good as Dundees :frown:

I've emailed to say I'm withdrawing my application, only I sent it on Friday and haven't yet heard back so I will phone if I haven't heard by tomorrow!
I'm probably going to put Aberdeen although its SO far, but the only other one I would've put would be Sussex which is just as far for me! I need a back up one anyway, and Aberdeen has lower grades.
That is really annoying, what have you applied to again? And are you an English applicant?

Nah man, I'm excited about the opprotunity. I have visited the UK and loved it there. I just interviewed for a job today (company based out of London) if I don't get it I will for sure be going to Dundee.
Not quite sure which one I'm more excited about.

I applied for Digital Interaction Design and Art and Design at Dundee about 30 minutes ago. It's my first choice, think I might have trouble getting in as I'm a mature student and have been out of full time education for 3 years.
