Cardiff Medical School Applicants 2013

Hi elwyn,
What GP practice do most people sign up with?

There probably are some out there but whether or not you'd have trouble with compatibility if you tried transferring a file from your PC to a uni PC I'm not sure.

It may interest you to know you can get Microsoft Office 365 University Edition for £53.95 from Software4Students: http://www.software4students.co.uk/products/microsoft-office-365-university

Thank you!

I want to put Cardiff as my last choice but I think it might be a bit risky :/ I got 5A*'s and 4 A's at GCSE ( the highest in my school :eek:

)and AAAAAB at AS level. Any advice?

You'll actually be at the Heath a lot more than freshers have been in the past. As part of the new C21 course you'll spend less time at Biosci than we did and more time up at the Heath.

Just put all Talybont options at the top of your preferences. In which order is up to you. Taly Court is the more expensive option which is has rooms that are a little nicer. Taly South and North have comparable rooms so there really is no real difference between them. South probably is more sociable (and therefore louder) purely because of the way the houses are set up. Taly North (where I lived) is also very sociable, you'll get to know everyone in your house (around 70 people) and it's also the closest one to Tesco Extra.
Aside from that, you don't really want to live anywhere else if you can help it :tongue:
