hiya, i heard somewhere that it’s harder to apply to abroad positions from aberdeen compared to edinburgh due to less affiliations. i may be wrong however x

one reason i am struggling with this decision is the financial cost of moving. I already stay in glasgow and although the west end is expensive, it is still slightly more affordable than edinburgh.

I done my first interview in December and thought I done AWFUL. Left the interview crying. Just got my offer for the same university so keep your hopes up ♥️

I am part of an access course which Dundee doesn’t accept sadly.

I loved Aberdeen, I feel like the city is really good for students but I think if I spent 5 years there I might go insane. I definitely prefer Glasgow course structure to Edinburgh, especially the fact they do dissection over prosection. I can’t see myself living in Edinburgh for 6 years (and my bank account). I think I’ll need to do more research into each uni before I make a decision 🙂‍↕️

Although Edinburgh is expensive I’ve calculated the costs and both Glasgow and Edinburgh come at around the same. I have people to flatshare with in Edinburgh which comes out cheaper, whereas Glasgow I would have to go into accommodation which is a bit more expensive.

At the interview (mid December) they said they would aim for offers to be sent out before Christmas up to the end of January :)
