University of Bath applicants for 2016 entry

Did you really??? I have also applied for computer science there, when did you send off your application??

Oh literally the same time as me then. What are your predicted grades/what subjects do you do?

MChem offer, AAA

Hi fellow biochemist! I started studying Biochem at Bath this September so if you have any questions about the course or uni or whatever let me know

Congratulations!

Hey! do you enjoy the course at Bath? I'm really interested in studying there and just want to know what you personally think. Also what's the campus accommodation like? On the post-offer open day last year I only got to visit the department and the lake etc. (I had an offer last year but stuff happened, however I got another one this year thankfully).

Oh hi, that's cool! May I ask what A levels you did and your grades? What else did you do apart from that like any extracurricular activities that you mentioned in your personal statement? Is there anything specific I should add in mines apart from the necessary interest in Biochem along with studies and related interests? Thanks in advance

I would recommend applying for campus accommodation because there's no better feeling than knowing that you can roll out of bed 5 minutes before a lecture and still make it on time.

Hiya! Yeah, I enjoy the course enough.. It's not fantastically interesting right now because it's mostly A-level recap but it should get better soon. I won't lie though, some lectures can be pretty dull but I gather that most courses have lectures like that so it's no biggie :P I can't speak much for campus accommodation as I've only really seen Norwood (because I live there) and I really like it. The noise can be a bit of a pain but I haven't really found it to be a huge issue. I suppose that I am on the top floor though...But for the room size it really is worth it (apparently our rooms are around the same size and solsbury) I would recommend applying for campus accommodation because there's no better feeling than knowing that you can roll out of bed 5 minutes before a lecture and still make it on time. I don't know if any of that really answered your questions but I hope it helped

Ah thank you! How much lab time do you get? The labs looked a-mazing when I visited last time. And do you have any small group tutorial things or seminar thingys?

congrats! just wondering as im applying for the same course- when did you send your ucas off?

Hmm lab time depends on the week as the timetable changes a little week to week. Generally, I've been getting around 3 hours in the lab most weeks but again, it depends on the week. Yeah I have a tutorial group every two weeks where mysef and three other students meet up with a member of staff from our department (i.e. our tutor) and so far we've just been set various homework assignments and then gone through them in the group. Another thing I should mention about this course is that we are given almost no homework.

Just got my offer for MComp Computer Science of AAA or A*AB!

what are your predicted grades/what subjects do you do???

My subjects are Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Chemistry, have already acheieved an A in A2 Maths and predicted A*A*A for Further Maths, Physics and Chemistry, I also sent my application off on the 1st
