University of Sussex 2014 offer holders

BTW, I'm 22 and I'll be starting a PhD in Physics in September.

Just read this. Who you doing your PhD with?

I haven't decided yet. Right now the offer letter says Christian Byrnes + Antony Lewis, but I can still change my mind (David Seery and Mark Hindmarsh are also on my mind)... I was told I could decide later so I figured it would be better if I focused on that later, when I have the time to spend a week or two reading papers and deciding who I should prefer - it's harder when they're all nice and working on cool stuff!

Are you in the Physics department?

Oooh... I love David Seery. He's so sweet.

Sort of. I'm taking time out from my course but this is my 3rd year as a physics student as Sussex.

I'm really depressed at the amount of people that seem to have got unconditionals from Sussex

I've got a conditional offer of ABB for Sociology to start in September 2014, but they've told me that if I firm them (which I have) they would be fine with it if I got BBB (I'm predicted 3 A's but I think that's is extremely unrealistic)

I'm feeling really nervous for results day and I haven't even done half my exams yet!

I just got an email about being an international student and help I could get, but I'm not an international student!!! Did anybody else get this, or am I mistakenly on the list for some reason? :/

Hey

I'm doing English Literature next year. I'm excited to go to Sussex and when I went to the open day I got a really good impression from the place, but after seeing the 2014/15 university rankings from the Guardian - Sussex is 43rd - I can't help but feel a little taken aback. I know the league tables have to be taken with a pinch of salt and don't mean everything, but I was just wondering if anyone else had any thoughts about it? Why would a seemingly very good university come so low?

Hi,
I have applied for 'English Literature' Undergrad at Sussex to start in September, I originally received an offer of A*BB/AAB but got a letter in the post today, telling me if I put them on UCAS as a firm choice I can get ABB and still start in Sep.
This makes me wonder-Why? I have taken a two-year gap from education and when friends applied a few years ago they had much more difficult offers.
Why such low entry requirements now?
Any advice/help?

Hi, I'm James. I'm 18 but will be 19 before I start in September. I've got an unconditional offer to study History. Anybody else planning to study History at Sussex?

Me! I have an unconditional for history too
