Make that 100% sure after going to the open day today. I still have NO IDEA which accommodation to choose, though.

It's clearly the right choice.

And we've got ages before you need to make a decision about accommodation.

Indeed it is, and indeed we have! Still, after looking around a bit I quite like the look of Vanbrugh.

I really really need to get AAA now cause I'm so excited about York.

Favoured college/accommodation: No idea yet...!

Welcome.

I guess it's quite exciting to decide to do a course such as the law one at York. Which unis/courses did you choose it over?

Oh yes, I like taking risks Seems like such a unique course, with really engaging staff (also, I think the Uni is fantastic).

Although it's new, it seems to me like York do new very well indeed - you can look to the Hull-York Medical School for that.

I chose it over: Birmingham, Newcastle, Leicester and Reading.

York > Edinburgh.

Philosophy = YAY!

Name: Rachel

Course: English

Conditions: AAA

Favoured college: Not sure yet, need to research!

I haven't actually firmed York yet because Warwick are taking a life age to reply and they will hopefully be my insurance but I can't wait for all this UCAS stuff to be over! I so hope I get 3 As!
