What makes a university give a lower end offer and how do I get one?

Sexual favours?

Hey, I'm sat in a computer cluster at University of Manchester doing a bit of interview prep as I have an interview in a couple of hours...

Just wondering how I should act in order to get a lower offer? My course gives out offers of ABB-BBC and ideally I want to get the lowest offer possible as I want this university to be my insurance.

It's more of an informal interview of them trying to sell you the uni, but I don't know whether to play a little bit hard to get or let them know that I love Manchester and it's one of my first choices. Your offer depends on your PS and this informal interview so I don't want to mess it up. I'm a bit worried that if I come across quite excited about the prospect of Manchester they'll make me an ABB offer because they know I'm going to choose it anyway...

If I don't get ABC/BBC then Leeds has to be my insurance...and I really don't want to go to Leeds

Help please!

I didn't know this was possible? Well, I guess you should real hone in on the questions you're being asked and perhaps ask the professor about their research interests (much more appealing than the sexual favours suggested).

If there is some kind of challenge or hardship in your life that you must overcome, you could mention that when they ask you questions about your life experience and character as they may consider it a potential obstacle to your ambition to get on the course.

Extenuating circumstances? Get a Dr, personal tutor, or teacher, if you really do have extenuating circumstances, to appeal to the university on your behalf stating that they fear you will not reach your full potential due to some external factor affecting your performance

Other than that, I really can't think of a way that you can get an offer lowered. I've never heard of anyone successfully doing it, and to be honest it very unethical considering everyone else has to compete on the same criteria and wont have the same kind of special treatment.

You gotta love Manchester though. Great city!!!

Is this a troll? I'm confused as pie.

I seriously doubt a most-likely muslim female professor would respond well to that 'un...
