only joking, I think the thing is with Birm-City is that it may be seen as a shite version of Birmingham, same with Leeds Beckett or Liverpool Hope, although in a way all unis are good but the lower ones are just prejudiced against by the elite, it depends on subject. Are you not prepared to move away as that may help you as Birmingham is a top uni, also the gap between the two is pretty big so if you move away places such as Cardiff,Liverpool, Lancaster and Surrey are probs a much better shout. Also what are your grades and what subject do you want to do?
