It has to be done...

Hey,
I applied to HYMS!! I got an offer and I so nearly went there. I loved the look of Hull and liked the fact that it was quite small. Went up and visited York once I got an offer and thought it was lovely, even though the town seemed fairly quiet. Anyway, I didn't choose HYMS in the end because I didn't like the fact you could be placed at either campus. And I wasn't too sure about Hull city either, even though I liked the uni. Went with Manchester instead, but maybe that wasn't such a good choice, a lot of people seem to think it's not so good there...

I gonna apply.

Though I rather be at York than Hull.

Although its all good.

lol ladi

and HYMS????? PBL all over

PBL scares me

I'm a HYMS medic. Don't be forgetting me.

You're not even a medic!

meh. well i would have beenn

"Would have been"?

yeaahh!
if i got in this year i wouldnt have doubted anything and i'd have been a medic.

but it didnt and i had second thoughts. maybe i'd have had second thoughts even if i was offered places

this allows me to htink about it for 4 more years it's a good thing

Oh, I see! So you didn't get in this year... are you going to reapply?

nah probs not

Oh dear .

People always underestimate Hull, it's really quite sad. HYMS is an excellent medical school, and Hull underrated. It does have it's rough side, and its reputation is probably justified... but it is no more unsafe than any other city in England, I think. The uni is actually pretty well situated, and as safe a place as you could wish to have.

But Manchester is also a great university, so I can't fault your choice . Are you looking forward to it?

I really liked the way the course was structured, but another thing that pushed me towards Manchester was the fact that HYMS doesn't do dissection as standard.

I am saddened by this news .

Starting to reconsider....

I actually thought that HYMS seemed like a better medical school than Manchester after reading their prospectus. I really liked the way the course was structured, but another thing that pushed me towards Manchester was the fact that HYMS doesn't do dissection as standard. I really did like both uni's though and at first was pretty set on HYMS. But I guess I got dazzled by the size of Manchester when I went to visit

I wasn't actually worried about the safety side of Hull, it seemed fine to me. I guess like most people, if I'm honest I was put off by the look of the city I've met a couple of people that went to Hull though and they said it's great!!

Yeah, pretty excited about Manchester, although a bit worried about the rumours I've heard. But I'm sure it'll be fine, it's up to you how much work you put in hey?

it's ok
maybe grad med. but i want to have more time to decide
