Haha ohh I see :h:

I found English quite simple too - once you got the technique!! Ahh as expected yeah :smile:

Cool! I'm on the exactly the same spec as you too! Snap :tongue:

Oh I've got you now; makes more sense! Thanks for the link once again :smile:

Yep sure do live in Birm!! Ohh I'd love to move away, but I have a life long medical condition that affects me from time to time (I've had 2 operations recently in the past 2-3 years) and so for that reason I'm staying at home to avoid stress being away from home! (trust me, stress is a huge trigger for my condition; I'll internally bleed like mad) But if I had no illness issues and had the choice to go elsewhere then yes, I would haven't defo moved away, but not too far :smile:

However, I'm thinking for postgrad I may move away from B'ham!
You've never been here?! :eek:

Come visit the main attractions to Birm then :wink:

Where do you come from then? Guessing you're not from Birmingham :smile:

Oh aha! I hated the exam about media... That was dull :L

Ah, well, at least you do have such a good Uni locally :smile:

deffo less stress is better: you've got your whole life ahead :smile:

what do you want to do with your degree?

I'm going to birm for the first time in a couple weeks aha! No idea what it's like :tongue:

I'm from exeter, a bit smaller :L

Awhh, I see :rolleyes:

How was the media part of psychology for you then?!

Indeedy :smile:

A lot of my friends underestimate how good University of Birmingham is; I think it's sensational :smile:

Oh yes, I agree, the least amount of stress is best for me and yes, I've got a good life ahead of me and that applies to you too! :wink:

Ooh well with my degree I'd love go on further and do a postgraduate degree specialising with aspects of Genetics in it then I could become a Genetic psychologist :h:

The study on genes and behaviour are based on psychology is known as "Behavioural genetics" or "Psychogenetics" :smile:

I mean, this is my current idea; my decisions may change when I actually do get my degree! How about you; what would you like to do? :smile:

Ooh yay

Have fun! I've been and seen the psychology lecture rooms and they are pretty big I'm telling you! The atmosphere at Birm is lovely; you'll love it :tongue:

Aha, haha, well to come to a slightly bigger city is good then :smile:

Mind you, University of Exeter is very good too!

P.S. - So sorry for the late reply! I've been really concentrating hard on my ISA's for Bio :')

No i haven't, just the clips online!
Only remember seeing Maple bank & Shakleton on the open day last year :innocent:

And same, wanted the ensuite but it was too expensive so lets hope its alright if we get given it :tongue:

(which i doubt as last year no-one got any of their top 6 choices unless they applied really early/unconditional)
