    No, first choice would be Strathclyde (offer veeery unlikely :rolleyes:), then Edinburgh and then RGU.. Although I looked around a lot, Uni seems great but it's SO far up north, scares me off a little bit.
    Yeah i was looking at strathclyde but yeah for me an offer seems unlikely also.. i have my alevels .. however i dont they would give me offer.. probably give me an offer if nobody applys for hospitality at strathclyde lol

    Yeah i have looked around alot also.. yeah do you know what aberdeen would be like? lol

    I sent my application off on November 8th. My other choices are Edinburgh, Strathclyde, Glasgow School of Art and Dundee.
    I haven't been to any open day as I'm from Bulgaria and it's not that near

    Thanks again for believing in me Well as I'm Bulgarian my grades may appear strange for you But so far I managed to get only 6s (the highest grade is 6, the lowest passing - 3)
    My first choice is probably Edinburgh, but we'll see...

    Yeah, I pretty much live on this forum. Sad but true.

    You were not mistaken. :lol: Applied to RGU as a sort of back up, in case the others didn't like me. I do want to get far away from home, very much so, but the RGU pharmacy department was nicer than Strathclyde's, I felt, and also it means that if some kind of disaster occurs and I have to stay near Aberdeen, then I could still go to university. In theory. :lol:

    Where have you applied?

    And I laughed when I saw the Happy Birthday email, thought they'd aged me by a few weeks.

    It's not that lovely. It's grey and when it rains, it's soul destroying.

    Never eaten a deep fried mars bar and I've lived here since I was 5. :lol:

    Has anyone else heard back yet? I got an unconditional and they asked me to send them copies of my certificates and I was wondering if anyone knew if they mean by post or if email is sufficient...? Thanks!

    I'm applying to Biomedical Science. Even though I already had the requirements in fifth year (on my gap year cos i didnt get my condition to another uni last year) I still think I'm going to get rejected
