Well, I've always been interested in STEM subjects, but only really thought about engineering this year - I don't really know what field I want to go into yet. this will be my first relevant experiance I've had. Looking forward to it!
Are you local to Lancashire, or travelling?

No, I live in Bedfordshire so I've got a really long journey! I only decided on engineering about 18 months ago but it seems like something enjoyable.

Not kent & I think I'm staying in a premier inn or something similar the night before. What about you?
It feels ages away, since I'm still in school at the moment, but its getting closer :biggrin:

Oh ok, my nan lives in Canterbury and my other nan used to live in Gillingham so I was just interested if you were anywhere near :biggrin:

I don't think it feels ages away at all; I'm going on holiday next week and returning a day before I have to go to Preston so I'm going to have to organise myself this week for it :smile:

Wow some of you guys have a long way to travel. I'm local and BAE is closer than my college so no problem for me.

I'm wearing sixth form clothes, but I don't know whether that will be smart enough. I'll bring more casual clothes for the evenings and if the general atmosphere is smart-caj I'll wear them during the day I guess

Yeah same.
Aw just me going in the first week lol.

So have any of you looked at the Systems engineering course at Loughborough?
I went to Loughborough open day on friday and it sounds pretty good.
Also spoke to one of the students who organised the taster weeks last time and they said that everyone enjoyed them and found them useful. Should be good. :smile:

No but I probably will do when I apply for uni. I'm only 16 atm.
Oh cool, are you applying for uni this year?

I've just been going to a few opendays so far and then in September I will be filling out the UCAS forms to go to uni in 2015.
Which Sixth Form are you going to go to?
