Me too! i am so mad at Durham right now... if we 3 amigos all get rejected ( without trying to tempt fate!) i think we should go naked cancan anyway... just to show them what they have missed out on!
I will pm you too Anatheme
Shall i correct your spanish.....?!? Since we are female it should technically be the 3 amigAs (or las tres amigas if we want to get fancy!!!)
haha! i am evidently the most linguistically challenged... which accounts for my lack of participation in the recent pages of french convo haha.
Awww i'll forgive you then
I love languages, i can speak three others (German French and Spanish) as well as english, but i'm not actually fluent in any of them (not even english!!!! and my german is appaling) so i love it when i can actually pretend that i understand them
Mmmmh, then go for Marianna Taymanova's coffee, please ^^.
Is she in charge of the Russian department? Looks like it from the name. And don't you worry I'll carry out my evil plan as soon as I register given I won't be in the vicinity any time soon. Delayed gratification.
My girlfriend is still waiting if that helps, Anatheme had your app gone to college?
What is your girlfriend waiting for? There doesn't seem to be muchcorrelation between how long you wait and subjects... seeing as we are all applying for totally different courses and are the late ones. Mmm Durham works in mysterious ways...
The more i think about it... the more i think i have no chance with Durham.
Even if i somehow manage to get an offer, i dont think i'll ever be able to reach the conditions. Their typical offer is 38 IB points, i'm predicted 30 but i dont believe thats all i'm capable of. I think i'm more likely to get 34 - 35 if i work really really hard (keep in mind the fact that i missed a LOT of school last year so while everyone else is reviewing material, i'm learning it for the first time - its not easy) but that still isnt good enough for Durham. I know Sheffield lowered the offer for me in light of my situation and i know that Durham might do the same.... but still, i might not be good enough.
I just really want to get into Durham, i'll work so hard if i do and it's so far away from everywhere the problems have happened i KNOW i'll be able to concentrate and do my best.
Ergh... i just want to know now, one way or another

*cries* i have got to the stage of thinking really, really negatively too.
I am sure they will take everything into consideration, especially since Sheffield and Bristol have. Also, wherever you go will be far away from your past problems and you can have a fresh start at any uni

I'm in much the same situation, I've been missing about 70% of school since the beginning of year 10 because I'm a young carer for a single parent.
Durham changed my offer, but thats the compsci department and its probably not as popular as yours - but you never know.
I don't really count though tbh I just used it as an excuse to get a decent insurance offer; I can cover modules very quickly. I covered about 5 modules during the January exam period and got 3As and 2Bs. The other 3 modules I did, 1 was genuine revision (got an A) and the other 2 I was just way too nackered to learn anymore and got Es (although one was a resit for the sake of it on a C) in both
You need a pretty good work ethic and being able to pick things up really quickly helps too, but its perfectly manageable. Although I've abondoned any hope of 3As, even though all of my subjects are doss subjects
HEY ! I can prove something now ! Durham is not only racist towards Irish people, but ALSO towards French people !!! Hehehe, kevster, my friend, wait for me
(No actually, I'm really disappointed because Durham had the best modules ever and I loved them. But well, I wasn't good enough, lol)

I think its time we unleashed the ninja/naked cancan plan.
Its not too late. They will be be persuaded to change their minds
