I wasn't happy I mean I can count on one finger the amount of times I was happy and I wasn't even in Portsmouth ( I was in a snow dome) I was going to be kicked out of I failed my exams I'd already failed one unit and Portsmouth really isn't as nice as I thought it would be.

Yeah I am thanks I moved to a uni that was a little closer to home I stayed in halls but it was easier to get home if I needed to. I graduated with a better grade than I expected which was nice and now I'm an engineer.

While I avoid Portsmouth for the most part Gunwarf Quays is nice as it the Historic Dockyards it also has a beach and good links to both the Isle of Wight and the content (France and Spain) and the guild hall often has some good gigs I really do hope you enjoy it though so good luck and who knows one day I might buy a game you've worked on.

Hi, I had an unconditional so yeah I put it as my only choice and am currently half way through my first year.
So far I love the course, It's great if you want to be a programmer, artist or designer. (I'm programming). First year you do a bit of everything then you start specialising in your second and third years.

Is there anything you would like to know?
I'll be happy to answer any questions :smile:
