I'm thinking of firming for this course (or atleast it will be either insurance or firm)! What has helped you to make your decision?

for me i loved the campus, which was a big thing as obviously ill be spending 3 years there. The course itself seems amazing and they have lots of resources too. When i went for the open day and the interview i just knew it was the place for me

i was exactly the same- loved the campus and feel of the uni and the course. Once i got the offer from Winchester i cancelled interviews at Reading and Oxford Brooks as I knew Winchester was the right place for me. I’ve also put Burma as my first choice. Have you been to any of the experience days? I can’t make it to any of them.

I haven't chosen yet. It'll probably be Winchester though. It's just such a beautiful place!

Honestly though, I thought that interview task was a bit naff. The one where you had to make a presentation on the day. I thought it was a bit anxiety-inducing for no reason! Partly put me off the uni. What did you guys think?

No i haven’t, im not planning i’m going to them, as I went to the open day and the interview so I feel like I’d know the place well, plus it’s a 2 1/2 hour drive for me. That’s so good that you loved it too, I’ll see you in September I guess!!

I agree. I sort of see why they did it, however i think that could have done it differently, or not even do it at all as i feel we demonstrated our self’s in the interview and maths/English paper
