Bath Uni Firmers 2014/15

People were wanting to start a new thread for 14/15 firmers so I've started one here :smile:

I'll say hello to everyone then. Good luck with your exams.

I've applied to do Accounting & Finance. Need AAA. Wasn't many options left for accommodation so I only applied for Eastwood and Westwood. Planning on joining the gym too, and getting a part-time job.

Uni of Manchester is my insurance.

Currently taking Biology, Chemistry, Maths (Retake) and Further Maths AS (no idea why)

P.S. My birthday's on Sept 24th so party round mine

About 50/50 atm. I think I'll get atleast 2 A's but all 3 is gonna be tricky. I can do it though. What about you?

Kind of the same with me. Hopefully i get at least two A's, not sure about the 3rd one though. Although I was wondering whether grades might go down this year since it's the first year where we've had no January exams and so i'm hoping uni's will be more lenient. But then again, I suppose the grade boundaries will take into account how people do....

Are you confident of getting in? How come you decided to go for catered accomodation, out of interest?

I was thinking the grade boundaries might go down, but everyone seems to have started revising earlier than last year so may be more prepared. I've started a lot earlier this year but I think I've got the same number of exams (9) so I'm hoping I'm better prepared than last year

I went to Bath for an open day and the quads were still under construction. Anyone know the actual difference between the quads and Marlborough court?
Starting to regret choosing the quads over Marlborough court

Hi All,

I've firmed Bath to do Mechanical Engineering (MEng with Placement - 5Yrs) A*AA.

I've applied to Marl/Sols (then Westwood/Norwood) for accommodation.

My Insurance is Southampton.

I'm currently doing Maths, Further Maths and Physics.

By the way, has anyone found the official Freshers Facebook group yet?
