YES! Nice to see you making stuff with your mollymod kit! It's what I did when I got mine in first year, made caffeine and teased the dentist across the corridoor with it!


Omg, I just made caffeine! :biggrin:

That sounds cool! I have this one:

Which has four different types of bonds, but I don't really know what to use the two little ones for? :s-smilie:

Atleast we're singing off the same song sheet I suppose. Good luck with all of your offers that you're still waiting for (See, now it's on topic....)

The small ones are for a space-filling model instead of the spread-out thing that you've made. Like this:

I'm starting my MChem degree at University of Hull next month.
I applied to Southampton/Cardiff/Leicester/Bangor aswell.
Also, I only got BCCCC at AS and still received all 5 offers from AAB to BBB.
If anyone has any questions about Hull/Chemistry/Personal Statements/Applying with low grades or any of the other unis I applied for, feel free to PM me.


Hi,
As you've been at hull for a while, would you be able to tell me about the university, the city and the chemsitry department please.

Thank you.
Hey guys, I originally applied for medicine, but after realising that I'm not 100% sure I want to do that, I'm currently planning on withdrawing my application around February and applying for chemistry through extra :smile:

I have no idea, we can only apply to one uni at a time through extra, and depending on whether they'd consider me, I'm thinking Nottingham and Sheffield

Thank you :smile: I'm actually planning on withdrawing my medicine application as I don't really want to do it anymore. I hope I do get in to chemistry this year
