There's a few on google images but I don't know how reliable they are... There's only three spaces for Bristol :K:I'm wondering how many people they could interview for it. Ah okay I was on the far right in the middle!

Hey , how'd your interview go!?! I'm still waiting for a response the waiting is horrid :L want to know now so I can confirm my choices etc!!

It went well thank you! I enjoyed the face to face interview but some of the MMIs were tricky I thought! What about you? I think we will hear pretty soon! Did you like Bristol ?

That's exactly the same as what i thought! one to ones i enjoyed the most, but the time given for the MMI's did not seem long enough!!! Well i think i recall them saying deadlines usually 31st March for them to give it out eek!! And yeah i liked Bristol, didn't have enough time to have a good look around though! Its so different i think to the London one, what one you swaying towards so far?

Yes they were really nice! It definitely wasn't long enough!, I felt so rushed :frown: Not long now then! Yeah it is different but I thought it was similar to RVC as you learn in the city but have to travel to the animals outside of the city. Well I haven't got an offer yet so I don't like to jinx it aha, but Bristol is where I live and I love London so either atm to me, you?

I haven't been to Hawkshead yet, want to go though! But I don't think I will be able to go to the offer day as I'm away on holiday. Same, cant believe I have offers! Yes I have an offer from Nottingham and Hartpury. What about you?

Nor have I but going of the virtual tour online that's the impression I got! And I know I'm gutted , I can't make it either,just too far and too much funds to get there and back, but I'm sure it'll meet expectations, especially from what I've heard elsewhere! Hull for zoology, London and awaiting Bristol :/ are Nottingham and hartpury both veterinary too?

Oooooh I will have to check it out! They said they will reimburse funds if that helps? Did you apply for just three?, and no Nottingham for Environmental Geoscience (long story) and Hartpury for Bioveterinary science.

Yeah the virtual tour is pretty good I never knew that the hawkshead campus is where they filmed inside nature's biggest giants! I know but they don't reimburse the full amount. I applied for Nottingham too but rejected before they even considered. Rang up the unite accommodation to try and find more out on Mary b but nothing! I've seen more Bristol offers have gone out tonight aswell, starting to feel my chances are slim!!

How do you get onto it? Oh that's annoying, do you drive? My friend got an offer for Nottingham Gateway which was amazing as there was only 5 spaces! They will hopefully be sending out the info packs on accommodation soon! Maybe we will hear tomorrow...:K:

Oh thank you! Yes I drive! So its easy for me to get to places like that open day! My friend got an offer for Bristol Vet yesterday (the five year course), so I'm thinking we will be finding out very soon! Were you not interested in College Grove then? I thought it was quite good as it was so close!

Same! I thought the interview went better than RVC as well... but I suppose there was only 5 places so not to upset! So I guess we will both be moving to London in September!
