Hi, I’ve been considering this too, but didn’t attend the open day. Can I ask if you have any programming experience?

What undergrad degree did you do and what sections did you have in your personal statement?
Applied for this course about 3 weeks ago and was just wondering how competitive it might be?

You should be good, they only have 20 places on the course so it might be a bit competitive. But your background is ideal
