would you mind giving me more detail about how it was like? for the yini? like what did you do, what kind of tests/exams you had in that year?


I'm only a first year but from what I gather if you do a year in industry you have two distant learning modules which you have exams in Jan...

Also a poster presentation, also site visit by an academic to see what you're doing. Also some sort of report which is essentially the dissertation you would be doing in year 4 but you do it in year 3 instead and then do a design project which other year 3 have done in year 3 in your year 4. Hopefully that makes sense.

This is roughly what it is like from what I have gathered.

Ok, thanks very much for your help! I've got an offer for this september entry, was still kinda terrified that it's extremely difficult.
On another note, how is campus life like (teachers, teaching, tutorials, etcetc )? I also worry that i'd be disappointed with it?

Surprisingly it only took me 3 days, despite my shaky academic history although this seems to be a bit of an anomaly because I know others wait much longer.

Thanks guys, I submitted my application on the 9th of December and I'm still waiting for a response, but I guess the Christmas and NY holidays probably slowed it down too :smile:

I submitted my application at 1st September, and received unconditional offer in early October. I guess the reason AO spent one month to give me offer probably is they were very busy in September, including admit students through clearing and adjustment. I firmed Manchester as my firm choice once I received offer.

Well, since Imperial is now out of the question, I'm seriously considering firming either Manchester or Nottingham. I'm more inclined towards Manchester because it's purely amazing :smile:. Still, any advice :smile:?

Hi I received unconditional offer and firmed Manchester as my firm choice. I have achieved A*AAA and the programme which I applied is Chemical Engineering BEng (entry requirement is AAA). I think you may choose Manchester because its a wonderful place to study engineering and very reputable internationally. But I suggest you switch your programme into MEng which require AAA and choose Exeter as insurance. :smile:

I am an international student, I have received a conditional offer for Law. If I get an offer from KCL then I'll make it my firm choice and choose UoM as my insurance choice.

Hey, thank you so much for the advice! I might actually put Exeter as my insurance because from what I've heard, they're not that tough if you don't meet the requirements and might even give you a place if you're a near miss. As for my firm, I think I decided on Manchester but I'm sticking to BEng because I want to perform a masters in Renewable Energy, not EEE. Still, thank you very much for the prompy reply Jack :wink:!!

No worries. :biggrin: It's terrific to study renewable energy after your bachelors. And Manchester have a programme which is MSc Renewable Energy and Clean Technology (link: http://www.manchester.ac.uk/study/masters/courses/list/09009/msc-renewable-energy-and-clean-technology/#course-profile ). This programme is run by School of EEE and I think there will be some big advantages when you apply if you finished your first degree in this school. And tuition fee is not so high, just slightly higher than one-year undergraduate fee.
Has anyone had an interview for Manchester? What was it like? :smile:
