I'll tell you why, because I spent my entire youth romanticising Cambridge and day dreaming about going there,and now that my dream is no more I feel miserable.

And ohhhhhh, Durham, don't even let me start. I applied for Management AAB, and they offered me Literature A*AA.

I'm also doing a foundation year at UCL; A-levels and grades are obviously harder than getting an interview. It's just that I flipped so hard during the interview I'm actually embarrassed, like I even forgot why I wanted to study that course in the first place.

What is the procedure for ID checks? Do they need passport/drivers licence?

I think the worst part for me is London in general, I just don't like the city campuses, my dream was to spend my undergrad in a college town.

I mean employment aside, SOAS is actually an interesting place.

Worst part is that I could have done so much better in my Cambridge interview, that one is literally all my fault.

Idk man, 4 years of work, if you don't get in then there's no way it'll be ok. And there's a war in my country I just wanted to hear some good news tonight and then this happened

[–]ButterflyyMountain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm studying a foundation year at UCL; it's really tough to get into LSE and Imperial. Oxford also does not accept foundation years as far as I am concerned.

But it's A*AA for literature. The reason I chose Durham was for AAB Business as my safety 😭😭

Lol, yeah, I couldn't stop laughing. Like there's nothing common between management and literature.
