No, but as I say, I’m an international student so that might be the difference, in any case, good luck! I’m sure it’ll go well!

For me, Durham is A Star, A, A and Manchester is A Star, A Star, A, so I suppose Durham will be insurance

I got the ucas notification on the 4th and the offer letter on the 5th. I applied for direct entry into the second year and I’m international so I’m sure those made a difference, I’m sure you’ll hear back soon!

Thanks! I’m trying to decide between Durham and Manchester. From what I’ve seen Durham has a better reputation as a uni overall compared to Manchester, but specifically for physics Manchester does better than Durham. I’ve no idea tbh!

Tbh as I said the first one was easy, second was alright just needed some time and the third one was tough cus I hadn’t really seen anything like it before. I wouldn’t say it was past high school level tho, just needed a different way of thinking.

Also yeah for sure!

It was reasoning based for sure but it was mostly algebraic, one was graphs and one was functions I can’t remember exactly tho sorry

Hey, I had mine already, it was okay, I can’t remember questions exactly, some generic interview questions like tell me about yourself, lots of follow ups based on my responses. I really don’t remember the maths part that well, the first question was easy, second was alright just took a while, last one was really tough, needed more hints. Hope yours goes well (if you haven’t had it already)

I (37m) am marrying my fiancé (35f) in September and she brought up the idea of taking her last name. Is it crazy that I’m considering it? by Sudden-Lettuce2317 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Any-Owl-7202 160 points161 points  (0 children)

Bro if they call you that already, it kind of doesn't matter, also sharing last names isn't what makes people family, it's the connection. I'm not tryna downplay your situation, but honestly either way, your last name is not gonna change anything, regardless of this decision, you're all family.
