Manchester have been giving out unconditional offers now?! They told us last year they'd be upping their requirements to A*AA...how interesting.

Congratulations anyway! You made a great choice :biggrin:

Ahh, you definitely applied much earlier than me! I only applied last week so I'm sure I've still got quite a wait. It would be great to get an offer but I'm not too bothered if I don't since I don't particularly want to go there so much. :colone:

It would still be nice to get an offer either way. Where else have you applied to? :biggrin:

I applied Manchester, Edinburgh(year 2 entry), UCL, Sheffield and Birmingham. Both Manchester and Birmingham gave me uncon. My favorite one is Manchester and I will choose Manchester as my firm choice.
Which uni is your favorite? :h:

Wow

I applied to Surrey, Nottingham, Sheffield, Newcastle annd ofc Manchester. I was also gonna apply for UCL but when I visited, I hated the accommodation and the whole atmosphere plus I wanna move out of London. *just my opinion but the course sounded good! * :colondollar:

I realllly love Sheffield. I loved basically everything about it so that'll most likely be my firm since I've got an offer from them already. :biggrin:

Sheffield is definitely a great choice! Their engineering department built a new building. And I dislike London either. You know I am a current year 1 student at King's College London and studying Chemistry. I think Chemistry is not a good subject because it is too theoretical and includes very few maths and quantitative contents which means my postgraduate choices will be limited. And everything in London are insane expensive. My studio costs me 302 pounds per week and tube tickets costs me 10 pounds every day! So that is the reason why I decided to reapply at UCAS and chose studying Chemical Engineering.

Yes, I heard about the new building as well. It looks amazing. :biggrin:

I've lived in London my whole life and I just don't like a lot of things about it. Maybe I'm too used to it. :smile:

Sheffield seems a lot friendlier and happier than London aha. :smile:

Yeah London is crazyyy expensive. I'll definitely not miss that when I go to uni. :colondollar:

Wow 302 is a lot and spending £10 a day is just insane!! I can see why you dislike London and why Manchester is more appealing. My dad works in Manchester during the week and he says it's a great city. I just personally don't want to move from one busy city to another one. :tongue:

I was considering studying chemistry but I wasn't sure what I'd do with a chemistry degree :s-smilie:

(not in a rude way I just was a bit confused what I wanted to do with my life at the time lol). But I have plenty of friends who've just started their chemistry degree so we'll just have to hope they enjoy it ahaa.
