    I have 4 conditional and should i withdraw the 5th
    As above, basically I have 4 Offers from my top 4 choices and i'm just waiting on the 5th and last choice. Should i withdraw and firm my top two or should i wait closer to the deadline?

    I was in a similar position with Bristol a while ago. I was close to withdrawing, but before I knew they gave me an offer which was a nice surprise. Wait if you want the ego boost, as it's nice, but if you're deadly certain that you wouldn't regret your choice to withdraw, then withdraw.

    I would never go to my 5th choice, but i guess the only reason why i am not firming now is down to the ego boost i would get

    I'd wait if I were you, there's always the chance that something'll make you change your mind and make your 5th be the most appealing choice.

    If you're sure you won't go to it then there's no point in waiting, let them offer the place to someone else and pick your firm and insurance.

    depends if you wish to go to the fifth or if your content with the oiffers you have at the moment. if you know definitely where you wish to study then withdraw the fifth and firm and insure what you have if not wait.
