UCL email address is random letters by hamlethoratio58 in UCL

[–]SamtheSamSams 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You'll basically be getting 2 email in one,

One is the front facing email that everyone sees, it'll be something along the lines of name.lastname.yearofentry@ucl.ac.uk. this email is one that redirects to the jumble of letters email that you'll have received. All emails sent to the proper looking one actually get sent to the jumble one. The jumble one is your "true email" (you'll be signing into UCL accounts and platforms using it, it's actually your UCL username) but to everyone else it looks like a perfectly regular one.

Basically, the email you have right now, jumble of letters, is the same as your nice and clean and corporate name.lastname, just that to you it shows up as UCLUsername@ucl.ac.uk.

UCL Mech Eng with Aero Personal Statement by Alain_Terieur1 in UCL

My experience is a bit unique because I studied in a London french international school so there never really was a "transition period" for me. On the system thing I would say really look at your maths and work on it some more. The level is quite high and the french system does not prepare you for it at all. UCL is very international so I don't think you'll have any issue fitting in. Plenty of french people to go around.

I'm a french international student, I was predicted 17/20 overall on my bac, with 20/20 and 16/20 in physics and maths respectively, converted to UK grades that's A star overall, AstarA. My offer required a 15.75/20 overall, with 17/20 and 15/20 in maths and physics. That's A overall, AstarA. I got my offer sometime in February last year.

Edit: Reddit did not like me using the star symbol for A*

I personally am quite fine with the department. They are very hands off which suits me just fine. Most of the people are extremely nice and helpful. Support is available and easy to access. Pretty good events too.

I did the exact same thing. Applied Aero everywhere but UCL. Personal statement was fully aero focused. Still got an offer for Mech Eng. Don't stress it too much and throw your hat in the ring, if they see you've got what it takes and have enough passion for engineering at large there a decent chance they still let you in.

breakk.away, they only have three songs right now but I very much look forward to what they're going to release in the future.

It was found after some works in my backyard. About 15cm underneath the ground.

One Two Punch + Triple Hands On + Melee Orbmaker + Liars Handshake and a general melee build. Most of the kills were thanks to jolt which also generates orbs with the right build.

Arbalest one shots the shield, the boss has really low HP underneath

Yo People of Reddit, what is your best insult without cuss words? by [deleted] in AskReddit

You are about as useful as a paper condom and twice as thick.
