being realistic I guess... I also like that you can study more continental philosophy at Durham (although analytic is more useful). And Durham seems to have more of a sporty environment. Warwick is my second choice.

Right now I'm more into analytical philosophy, but I like to have a choice... btw, I've applied for PPE not pure philosophy.
Actually, I think I'll take a year off and re-apply to Cambridge to study pure philosophy. Ah, to be able to go to Grantchester, to see if there is Beauty yet to find, and Certainty and Quiet kind...

I know, I know... Coming back from Cambridge this summer I was so certain about applying to read PPE, and now I'm just so sick of economics... I want to do philosophy! Why, oh why did I ever listen to the people who told me philosophy wasn't really practical enough and a waste of time... Why :confused: !!! (Time you enjoy wasting is not really wasted time, right?). *smacks parents with ToK book*

TOK is very different to Oxbridge philosophy though. I mean I love ToK, it's my favourite subject but the prospect of doing loads of logic exercises \o/ doesn't exactly appeal to me. The economics courses are also very different (with university economics being MUCH more maths based). At the end of the day though, I'm just waffling out loud, just do whatever course really appeals to YOU xthup

my parents are paying for my undergraduate studies, and simply refused to let me apply for philosophy... We compromised with PPE. I could always drop economics the third year and do eight philosophy papers and two in politics or something like that... But it's not like I'll get in anyways.
mines Birmingham med science not very confident though
