So- which vet school (fingers crossed)???

OP

Yeah lol that was me on my lonesome!! Were you at 2, or earlier?? What did you look like??

Lol I was just about to say how jealous I was off you- that trip sounds amazing! I mean, i'm sooooo glad i've got in but it would have been brill to have a chill out year and see the world!! Theres still time to here something, and even if you don't you can go in next year after living a bit!!

Which Uni - Nottingham
Why you chose it - Because it's new, it's exciting, resources are fab, reputation is great, and I belive the review they carried out of the other courses/unis before establishing theirs can only serve to make Nottingham the best course on offer!
When you got the offer - Feb
Are you a post grad or undergradundergrad - got a BSc (Hons)
This year or deffered entry - This year! :biggrin:

I was at two aswell, I was with my dad and have straight blonde hair that I had up, and I had baggy black trousers on! Can you remember me?!

Didn't that boy that was showing us around annoy you? He was slagging off all the other vet schools and just saying how great Liverpool is - which it probably is - but he doesn't have to be so negative about the others. I still haven't heard anything, oh yeah, I'm sure we were at the same Nottingham interview aswell, have you been rung up by Gary yet?

Are you a post grad or not: UG
This year or deffered entry: 2006 entry

It doesn't have a reputation within the profession at all atm

The university itself however, has a very good reputation right around the world.

v true :smile:

Nottingham is great at everything already - and it's Medical course is top notch, so it's the perfect place for a new vet school - I can't wait to get started!!!

(Nottingham is my 1st Choice by the way :wink:

That’s a bit pedantic… :wink:

No it doesn’t have a reputation within the profession, but it does have a very good rep for everything else! ..So in my optimism it stands to reason that they are hardly going to do a worse job with this course with all the expertise already in place :smile:

Hel' in Heaven

Which Uni: RVC :smile:

Why you chose it: Well first of all because it's the only place which has given me an offer! (apart from Nottingham which hasn't answered yet...) But I'm really pleased, and I'll choose the RVC anyway, because I really liked the place and the people were really really friendly... and I overheard some students speaking French (yay I'm not the only one!!) .. and living in London must be marvellous!!!! :biggrin:

When you got the offer: 02/03 Unconditional! It's the second time I applied after a failed attempt last year... :rolleyes:

Are you a post grad or not: Undergrad
This year or deffered entry: this year!! can't wait!

True, Although Cambridge is a very good university but that certainly doesn't apply to its vet department. Good Luck!

Yep, we love it, live it, breathe it and preach it - for a good reason!!!!!
unfortunatly you were shown round by the reps so they are particularily passionate, but lovely really when you get to know them!

Out of interest what makes you say Cambridge's vet department isn't good?

Cambridge's Vet Department is good, all the UK Vet Schools are, it just doesn't 'dominate' like it does in other subject areas.
Also, I think a couple of years ago the RCVS had some queries with certain areas of course :confused:

Maybe not, Just thought I recalled something about that. Either way its still a good course and as valuable as every other UK Vet Degree.

Hey nina, i heard from Nottingham today yay!!! I'm very excited but have the tough decision of choosing between RVC and Nottingham, which one would you choose? Are you def goin to Liverpool? I still haven't heard from them, but don't really mind anymore.. even though its not very nice to be rejected.
