I hope to get an offer from Durham, but from seeing some of the maths rejects, it's really unlikely :frown:

People are getting rejected already? You will get an offer hopefully though!

yeah same here... I like going out with friends and stuff... but every night is a bit heavy... I prefer somewhere a bit more chilled where you can just relax with friends and stuff... thats why I like the college system at Durham and the uni itself... it seems like you can go out if you like... but there are also pubs and stuff to just hang out at. My friend has applied to St Andrewds for economics... it looks really nice.. I wanted to apply there.. but they dont do law :frown:

ah... decisions decisions.. :smile:

I got a conditional from Durham earlier this month for history. I believe all I have to do is fill out a form, so essentially it is unconditional. Today I got an acceptance letter from Van Mildert. Can anyone tell me about this college? I didn't have a college preference and really don't know much about it. I'm leaning much more towards St. Andrews though to be honest.

I just checked the natural sciences website for my particular choice, and I have realised there is much less flexibility than I initially thought, but thats alright, they are good modules
Are people generally applying to BSc or MSci natural sciences?

I've applied for the MSci in physics but I think I'm going to try and do the physics and maths joint honours instead. It's very restrictive though, I worked out I will have maybe one free module to choose another subject (I want to do philosophy) for the first couple of years and that's it. It's a shame because there are some physics modules that I wouldnt mind missing out as they seem less useful, but if I do I can't get the joint honours.

Ye thats almost exactly my situation, I would've liked to do the Molecules in Action chemistry module, but I wouldn't mind doing the joint honours, I'm just thinking where I want to go with it at the end, which subject I want to do the research project in and all that. It will be a tough choice!

Yeah, I am wondering whether do the course as if I was doing it just a maths masters so I don't have to do "Discovery Skills in Physics" and "Lab Skills and Practilce" because I am more interested in the theoretical side, and just doing lots of physics modules as well. I guess I'll see what I feel like when (and if) I get there.

Ye I'm more interested in the theoretical side too, but it says you have to do those 2 modules, so hopefully I'll get more confident at practical work

Still waiting on International Relations (L250). I swear waiting till March will kill me, especially since I've already been rejected from LSE.
