Where is everyone going next year

Either Physics at Durham - AA in two advanced highers or Physics at St Andrews - AB in advanced highers

If you don't mind me asking, what attracts you to go to uni in England?

Durham is an amazing uni apparently! There's nothing in particular that attracts me to England, I just like the sounds of some universities that just happen to be there.

Fair enough. Do you plan to come back to Scotland when you graduate?

I haven't decided if i'm goinhg to leave yet

But no, i'm pretty sure i'm not going to come back to Scotland actually.

Medicine at Edinburgh - B in Human Bio, should be fine with that

Rock on.

Computer science at Cambridge, fingers crossed. If not, then off to Edinburgh for informatics.

(I'm another one not particularly expecting to return to Scotland; USA Postgrad here we come...)

Whereabouts in the USA are you interested in?

I'd love to go to do a PHD in MIT or some place like that

It would depend on what I chose to go into (the theory of programming languages and computer graphics both vaguely attract me at the moment) but I'm thinking Stanford or MIT (although not for any really good reason - just that the towns strike me as nice, and the rock solid reputations, of course ). All a bit blue sky until I get my first degree out of the way, though!

Is postgrad, in general, somrthing you'd like to do?
