    I think they didn't like me not firming it. -_- I actually changed my offer to Maths & Physics straight after getting my camb offer (specifically so I had it as an insurance option) - with the intention of changing back as soon as possible if I end up there How is it going anyway? Haven't seen you on the forums in a while
    It's good, I've really enjoyed the first two terms There's plenty of work, of course, so when I'm there I don't have time to waste on here! :lol:

    What else do you have for insurance choices?

    UCL, LSE and Bath. UCL is the only other one I'm really considering. I haven't even visited warwick yet though (it's such a hassle but I really need to do a private visit or something before may)

    And that's good - I'm sure there is I like wasting time here

    Ah, cool. Yeah, getting from some parts of Yorkshire (I live in Harrogate) can be painful-it takes me 5 hours to get there using public transport! Anyway, feel free to send me a message if you plan on visiting

    if i was a cambridge rejected i would have negged you as well. i think it's quite a normal reaction if you go to the warwick thread to show off.
    If you read my post I actually just wrote about how it's fairly likely that I'll be going to warwick because of my hard firm offer. Didn't even mention cambridge. Even if I did - I don't understand why people must be so petty.

    I think the B would be Bath before it's ever Bristol, but even then it probably shouldn't be there at all.
    :confused:

    Bristol has a great rep for Maths. Who told you otherwise?

    It's easily top 10. Probably not top 5: but saying "it shouldn't be there at all" is a rather harsh judgement (bias).

    Never said otherwise (I was thinking of applying there before I decided on Bath), but Bath is supposed to be better as far as I know. My main point was it isn't in the same league as COWI so I think people writing COWIB are clutching at straws.

    I agree that, COWI is in a league of its their own.

    However, after that it's pretty tight.
