Ah awesome :biggrin:

I've got a week until 6th form restarts - when do you have to get to uni?

Fresher's week starts on the 24th for Exeter Students, so you should have plenty of time. :biggrin:

Oh God, I'm gonna hate that. I'm already bored, I've been wanting school to restart for a couple of weeks now :tongue:

Yeah, I see what you mean, but (hopefully) this time next year you'll be running around getting everything sorted for uni, which will occupy your time. :smile:

Yeah, I have a list of things already prepared so I can spread the cost over the year :tongue:

Might be a little ahead of myself :tongue:

Haha!

After I finished my exams I was so desperate to get into Exeter that I started getting really superstitious for no reason...so I couldn't bring myself to buy anything for uni in case I jinxed it! :redface:

I'm a nerd and I'm going to Exeter.

(I'm also doing psychology, by the way).

For some reason I just couldnt buy stationary or pens, as that was definitely academic, but I could pretend the other stuff would be fine even if i stayed at home.

I'm a bit of a nerd. Unfortunately I'm an Exeter local and therefore am not there for Uni. On the plus side, I once saw a group of people in town dressed as stormtroopers. Nerd win.

Wow... This thread's seen an epic time since yesterday... Surviving a Troll attack and getting to the top of the Most Popular Discussions briefly!
What a proud day to be a nerd :biggrin:

But it's cute fat. It waves! :wavey:

And it's my favourite two parter of the series (probably the best episode of the series has to go to "Blink" though as a standalone). Plus, the matron is my second cousin, apparently. :wink:

Oh, matron :colone:

Agreed!
And Blink is still holding up awesomely, after seeing it again today ^_^

Nope. I'll be teaching myself FP3 once I've got the knowledge I need from C3/C4. I've already done the group theory chapter, but I'm concentrating on S3 at the moment because I can do it all without knowledge from C3/C4.

Although the F Maths course at my 6th form is FP1 M1 S2, M2 D2 FP2 (none of the people in that class are applying for maths AFAIK, other than me)

I greatly commend you for learning FP2+3 yourself!
I only had the guts to learn AS Further Maths on my own, and that was with the easiest combination (D1 & M1; Statistics with my Main Maths)
All the very best of luck to you :bigsmile:

Although I am sure you won't need it!

He went to Exeter too, if I recall correctly. *decides to annoy Mr P with questions about Exeter maths*

Apparently, loads of Maths teachers graduate from Exeter!
I know my two Maths teachers did, as well as one other that I know...

It's one of the reasons I want to be a teacher when I leave... Follow the awesome tradition 'n' all that :dance:

Nope, just a little AS-er :tongue:

I'm gonna miss my school. By the time I leave that'll be a third of my life spent there :eek:

I will never, EVER stop visiting my school! I've grown way too fond of the place to just forget it!
I even made a remark on Results Day that I'd rather die than forget I'd gone there! And I stick by that! :shoot:

Then again, I am only about 40 minutes drive away from my school from Exeter Uni, so I can easily make a visit :tongue:

And the nerding just went over my head :frown:

Hell, I'm doing Maths at Uni... And I wasn't even aware Bach did Mathematics...
I thought he was a world famous composer/musician!

Unless I'm missing something and there's also a Mathematician called Bach!
Or was his music some sort of epic Mathematical voodoo filled with Golden Ratios in Frequency, and what not... :s-smilie:

Don't worry, now I'm lost. :3

Let's go and sit in the corner and play some Doctor Who Top Trumps (which I actually own). :biggrin:

I am so camping outside your room to get first dibs on the Who Card action!
I'll make a tent if necessary! :fuhrer:

Also: WEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Hello fellow Exeterian nerds :biggrin:

NW-CG, am I right in thinking you're in James Owen as well? If so, which block?

All this nerding out is all stupidly exciting for me, just to let you know.

Indeed I am :awesome:

Block A!

I take it from your question that you are, too? (If not, my Sherlock career has taken a rather sizeable nosedive)
If so, which Block?

Bringing our private meme'icular activity to the mainstream :colone:

I like it

It just occurred to me, is anyone bringing a cat to University...
Because: Crazy Cat + Levitating Tunnels = an entire JOC's worth of blood to clear up :headfire:
