Yes, all 4 places I applied to got back to me last year. Apart from a pre-interview rejection from Oxford I got offers from everywhere and am now trying to settle on a firm (Bath v Exeter).

A*AA.
Warwick sent me an email yesterday!They hadn't received my predicted grades somehow!Had to send them again!
Thank you

Ooh bath is so nice it's so pretty, Exeter is an absolute trek from where I live so no idea about there haha

I'm actually from the North, so both are several hours away from me by almost all forms of transport. XD

Pretty much everyone I know think it's an odd choice but the truth is I just had very specific criteria when picking my choices.

London's waveyyy, don't choose Oxbridge just because of the name, mate. London unis are soo reputable as well, especially LSE, King's and UCL. The atmosphere you get, the experiences that there are to have and everything that London has to offer make up for the higher living costs, which people exaggerate anyway imo. You'll love it here

Of course, going to Cambridge or Oxford would be amazing in terms of the degree, job prospects etc., but you have to understand that the workload and environment, and the cities, aren't for everyone. I'm not sure how true this is but I'm also guessing that the kinds of people you'd meet at the London unis especially would be much more eclectic than those you'd find at Oxbridge.

In reply to jchap btw lmao

Haha, great choices mate! Excellent unis, right in the heart of London as well! Nah, I'm not in uni yet, I'm in year 13 applying to go - it should be great 👊 Definitely bags of fun to be had in London man, no question.
As for me, I'm looking to do the opposite and move out of London, just for a bit of a change really. Currently having a 'mare 'cause I want to change the course I'm gonna do at uni after already having sent off UCAS and everything but, in terms of my new course, Sheffield, Cardiff, Nottingham do it and I've read good things about all of them so 👌

Anyways, life story complete, good choice with those unis, man. You can't go wrong!
