2016 University of Edinburgh Hopefuls

Went to St A's today for the open day and wasn't a fan at all. I was planning on firming it, but not anymore. Got back to Edinburgh Waverley and started wandering about the place, and I've kinda fallen in love with the city. The problem now is whether I choose Birmingham (unconditional), Edinburgh, or Bristol (which I haven't seen yet) all of which I have an offer English Lit and Philosophy. What do you guys think? I'm currently typing this from an Edinburgh hotel and yeah haha, this place is pretty awesome (I come from Essex in south-east England)

Got a conditional offer for Geography after 4 and a half months of waiting!
Ironically, I was at the St Andrews visiting day when I received the e-mail😂

I had applied to St. Andrews as well as Edinburgh. I received unconditionals for both due to me sitting highers last year. I firmed Edinburgh as soon as I received all my offers and I have no doubt in my mind that it was the best decision. Today was the third time I'd been to the uni and compared to the rest there is no question that in my opinion it's the best place to be. (I applied for Computer Science and AI) Hope this helps!

Hello again! What were your grades if you don't mind me asking? I remember they were really good?

Congrats! Thats brilliant news! So will you be firming Edinburgh?!

Rejection for politics. 5 months of waiting. love it.

Sorry to hear this mate Where else did you apply to?

Cheers.
Glasgow, Manchester, Leeds and York.
Got offers from all 4 so I'm hardly in the worst position.

You?

I just checked the typical offer for economics related courses and it seems to have shot up from 37 points to 43 points (IB)! Is this the reality for people with conditional offers? Though it does say it's for 2017 entry.. It just seems like a huge leap and in itself it seems ridiculously high..

Definitely true. My conditional offer (minimum to satisfy the offer) is 40 points with 766 at HL and a 6 in Maths SL. It's crazy!

I got an email saying that they were overloaded and now they're getting them out by next Wednesday latest
