Who's excited to start uni? (3 Viewers)

[enoilgam]

yes
that is what we were saying
we were getting across the temporary part of it ALL ALL ALL theh only person who specified the work part of it was morts, and even then he didn't rly
we're not trying to crush dreams we're just putting padding down for the let down these young people are going to experience
wot r u doin you're not counteracting you're adding

Point taken - but I dont know if uni will necessarily be a let down for these people. They havent said anything to indicate they have an unrealistic expectation of uni.

Ummm, shuddup.

ALL of these kids would have unrealistic expectations, just like us (effy, me, etc.), the generation before them.

Well, uni was pretty much exactly like ow I expected. But that's just me I guess.

Why is everyone demeaning UWS? What is wrong with it? The courses are respectable and UWS Medicine is quite good as well -.- D:

 

[SanjoyM]

If you accept your early round offer, are you still eligble to apply for mainround offers for other courses, defer the early offer and enrol in the mainround course offer? :S

 

[eat_well]

I was excited about uni but I'm not sure anymore. I hear horror stories about the workload :S.

but you went to a shit-ish uni so it's not like you could've had high hopes.

soicl life is shit

Med is good there because you have a shit social life no matter where you do med.

I don't think you can defer the offer...

I love ND - it's a great uni. It was also my first choice in uni.

Yes, same! However, if you work consistently, then work load should not be problematic.

If you have developed good study habits, strategies and techniques in High School, then the transition shouldn't be too bad.

Your stance is that social life is "shit", hence UWS is considered "shit" as well. :| How does that even make sense? Please expand upon this. :S
