HHHEEEEYYYYY peeps!!!

Thank you ALL for you fantabulociousness(soz I like to invent my own words!)-what a great bunch of friendly peep you all are! W-o-w!

Proven Angel- well done on your 2 offers thats soooooo good :biggrin:

you're completely right, its WAS a huuuuugggeee relief to get an offer- i've just gotta make sure I do the work know- wahooo!!! :rolleyes:

Btw why seriously well done re bristol- is it harder to get in or sommat?

Kisa- OMG wow! 2 offers AND an interview for Edinburgh- (originally my first choice! :wink:

) very welldone! Good luck with the interview!

Kat r- Bristol v RVC- a difficult decision! That offer of ABB from the RVC would be very tempting for me- would make this year a bit easier! BUT Potters Bar area aint half as nice as Bristol!!! AAAANNNNDDD you know you want to come to Bristol with me don't you????!!!!??? :biggrin:

Go on go on go on!

Btw one thing I've been amazed with is the amount of peep who've actually GOT offers for vet med, as its such a hard subject to get into!

1 thing though! Did anyone else face an uphill struggle in regards to their school and careers teachers? Although I appreciated their honesty in that its difficult to get into vet med, some were really funny and were really convinced that I didn't have a cat in hells chance! Oh sweet revenge! HA HA!!!!! :cool:

Well done. I'm at bristol and you should really enjoy the first year :smile:

Make sure to take your time with the accomodation personal statement if you want to get into a Clifton hall.

woooooooosshhh, another CrAzY lady on TSR!! :biggrin:

yea, im CHUFFED as well with my offers, but i seriously gotta down to some work myself now! aaaaaarrghhh, revision = makes me stressed = makes me eat chocolate = makes me more fat! :eek:

well done with bristol, because i was always told that the vet interviews are pretty formal and quite hard to get thru in one piece!, and also, quite a few peeps have rejections from them (including me) so they must have liked u lots and lots! :biggrin:

I know EXACTLY wot ur saying about teachers. When i started sixth form (which is in a grammar school), i was way way behind with chemistry, so when i came in telling my chemistry teachers i wanted to be a vet, they were like 'ooooo, ok :confused:

' They even told me to think about appling for medicine instead!! But i showed my commitment, caught up and pulled through AS with an A!! YAY! So now all is well, and they are supporting me loads. I cant tell u enough how AMAZING it was to tell them i had 2 offers tho, let alone 1!! :p:

Word seemed to spread v quickly as well btw (not all by my doing either! :rolleyes:

), so that was nice seen as i felt like a COMPLETE underdog! hehehe

My careers teacher thought that all she needed to know to give me careers guidance about a vet she would find out from watching animal hospital and vets in practice!!!!!

Can you give me anymore advice on Bristol- aka
1) Any other good accomodation halls- and what do you mean by an 'accomodation personal statement'???!?!?!?!?!?!? I had enough stress with my UCAS personal statement- I don't want to do another one!!! :eek:

(But will happily oblige if it gets me a good room :rolleyes:

)

2) Any bad points (crime in partic places, etc)
3) Cool places to go/ eat/ boogy at?!?

Thaaannnkkk yyyoouuuu!!!! :biggrin:

Crazy- yeah that pretty much sums me up, my friends would prob like to add to that though! :rolleyes:

Oooooooooo.........!!!!! Speaking of chocolate, I made one yesterday and am eating it now and mmmmmmm its gorgeous- just what I needed after working today!!!!

I'm from a Grammar School too and what happened to you happened in EXACTLY the same way to me- got D's n E's in November tests ( seriously) as decided to bum around for the first half of L6 (was still in extended holiday mode!) and all of my subject teachers were really dismissive etc- idiots (n thats mild, but have been told that you can't swear on here, so won't!)

oh! How much work experience have you done (this is the part I dread, as my list ALWAYS appears to be pitfully short!)

MY CAREER TEACHERS AND SCHOOL SUCK!!

1) They would not predict grades i needed, even though i know i can get A's!!

2) They were like you'll never be avet, why not b a vet nurse - grrrr.... I wana be a vet dammit!!

Oh well, unless i get an offer from rvc (doesnt look hopeful) they'll be proved right!!
