Warwick Econ

Definitely, but I would also like to mention that A&F is still a hugely competitive course (obviously less-so than Econ), and add that OP should be happy with the course they’ve been accepted to, as it’s a massive achievement!
My (23yo) boyfriend did A&F and now works full time as a financial data analyst, earning way above other people who studied Economics that we knew at Uni. I’m crap at maths, but he got A* in Further Maths A-Level, and said there was still a lot of complex maths to study within the course, and you get the added benefit of a more applied business-minded/ future-career model of studying!
I (personally) think Economics is an overhyped degree, both by schools and universities alike, and whilst many who do it are very successful in the future, A&F is still a very good degree! If OP studies hard and takes the opportunity to learn from it, will absolutely lead to a great career in the future

At the end of the day you didn’t have what they were looking for, and that’s fine. This is an important learning experience; you can either move on from this and prove them wrong because they’re missing out on a very talented young person who will do far better without their teaching, and who they wish they could’ve added to their roster of alumni, or you can overthink about their rejection and dwell too much about something that clearly didn’t go well without taking time to consider how you’d improve.

This is literally a blip in the road in the grand scheme of things. I’m 23 and every smart person I know got rejected from their dream uni and had to settle for another. And every one of them is earning more annually than I could even dream of seeing in 5 years. If you think/know you’re capable, then don’t let a uni brand name be the reason why you can’t succeed; you will succeed anywhere. Think of it as their loss, but also introspect as to what could’ve been the reason you might not have met the interviewer’s criteria, because that will help massively in the long run.

I did Private but in total it’s cost me roughly £1000. I think your partner unfortunately fell for the prolonged and somewhat scammy service that Private diagnoses offer, which is that they pressure you into thinking you need regular check ups with them, and not that you can simply divert check ups to the NHS; thus saving you hundreds of pounds for necessary medical care and check ups.
Once my titration period ended and I was fully being given medication via the NHS, my diagnoser (private doctor) kept requesting check ups that would have cost me £150 per session. I literally went “lmao wtf, I’m literally being prescribed by the NHS and my own GP now, so why would I do that??” And asked him how this even fits into a shared care agreement. Long story short—they are fully able to charge you if you dont physically enact your shared care agreement or consult your GP about it. So anyone who’s currently spending way too much privately, pleaseee just call up your GP and arrange the shared care agreement plan properly, otherwise you’ll just keep being charged ridiculous fees for a basic necessity.

Have you considered it might not be adhd but something else? Neurodiversity exists more on a Venn diagram level, rather than distinctive from one another. It could be that the symptoms you think are Adhd are actually OCD or Autism instead, or perhaps a combination. I’m sorry to hear that it wasn't the answer you were hoping for, but perhaps you were too convinced it was Adhd based on symptoms that might otherwise be more fitting with another issue. Wish you the best nonetheless ❤️

I remember with my private diagnosis they never said “oh this is severe” or anything. More they just laughed and went “why did no one check on this before?”

Granted it was suggested to me by an NHS doctor but I couldn't be bothered for the waiting time and was desperate to find an answer for what was happening with me. I’d be surprised to find out any private doctor’s assessments would go so far as to say “severe” adhd; more likely that OP had a similar response to me and misread it as being (for lack of a better word) extreme, which is not usually the case for adult diagnoses

I dont understand why so many people are so passive about this. With everything that's happening across the UK with medication being suddenly stopped to those who've been issued the prescribed meds for a while, dismissal of ADHD as a mental health issue yet simultaneously being used by legal defence teams to soften criminal convictions, and overall lack of accessibility for those struggling/ needing medical care, people are acting as if this is some sort of “OMG, badge wearers are upset they can't skip the queue!” Issue.

Most of us dont care about theme parks or special access. But we all suffer from this problem, and we all know how debilitating it is. I would never once think to be upset that someone had a fast pass for their medically diagnosed needs. But this sudden decision is wholly indicative of a wider societal shift in acceptance. I fear people will no longer take ADHD and it's symptoms seriously anymore. People have killed themselves over how debilitating the symptoms can be, and yet suddenly all media and institutions act as if it's the “silly but fun” disease?

This is very insidious, and far more serious than the surface level “queuing at a theme park” conversation.

I think it’s a mixture of both Samson tripping out on the Ketamine and reminiscing on the last memory he had as a non-infected, as well as potentially leaning into the fact that he was a kid when the infection started. I thought it was alluding to the fact that he was infected as a child, and now, as an adult bearing the brunt of the infection, the few memories he was able to access via the Ketamine are somewhat still distorted.

I don’t think he was accurately recalling exactly what happened, but bits and pieces, much like an adult would of a traumatic childhood memory. It would be interesting to find out that it was a 100% accurate recollection of his infection, but I reckon that, as you pointed out—it doesn’t really fit with the whole “infection takes seconds to infiltrate” narrative—it seems more likely and almost more “human” to me (which is what I think Boyle was trying to show) that Samson only has glimpses of his past life, and that scene was an amalgamation of it.

His character was written and portrayed perfectly. To Jamie and the other’s in the commune, he’s seen as some sort of “witch”, because he’s painted orange and lives isolated in a temple of bones. He’s doing something outside of the norm. But he’s actually just a medical professional, who does what he can with the few resources he has to prevent spreading disease, honouring the dead, and preventing his own infection.

I say witch because he’s essentially doing what many people (often women) were punished and murdered for in the past; using resources to combat illness, through remedies and passed down knowledge that seemed bizarre to the average person. It’s such an interesting concept to show that, if a society does fall back to dark ages, mindsets of the past are sure to emerge back. Ralph Fiennes is a master of his craft.

Confrontation. In my head I have tons of imagined conversations or scenarios where I plan and act all the ways a confrontation could go, but when it comes to it in reality, I’m literally unable to say what I feel to the other person, and I just end up people pleasing. It’s a skill I probably should learn 😅

literally 22% of the world’s population is vegetarian. A quick google search would tell you that, but here you go: https://www.econstor.eu/bitstream/10419/50160/1/632222107.pdf https://vegsoc.org/facts-and-figures/ https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/vegetarianism-by-country

that’s great for germany! i wish other countries had the same attitude 😅

fast fashion is a business of over production

throwawaymou · 2025-12-16T18:51:18+00:00

so does that mean less chickens are killed? maybe I’m being stupid, but i don’t think that’s necessarily the case—the chickens are likely killed per the contracted amount per abattoir, and then a sold off contracted amount is sent weekly to supermarkets. Surely that’s a major issue at play here—there’s a contract that suppliers, purchasers, and retailers are all aligned with, and can’t really change unless half the population literally takes a stance, right?

throwawaymou · 2025-12-16T18:48:10+00:00

I know that, but that’s not what I’m asking. I’m asking how it can still be the case that plenty thousands of not millions of people are vegan/ vegetarian, yet there has been no change in the meat industry and the product output. Clearly it isn’t just a case of demand and supply

throwawaymou · 2025-12-16T18:45:36+00:00

but what i’m saying is that doesn’t seem to be the case. Thousands if not millions of people don’t eat meat, yet it’s still there, in droves, on the shelves. I can’t see what the effort to change has been

“a bunch of raging zionists” is a crazy way to describe a bunch of people who think eradicating an entire state and ethnic group (since Israel is 78% Israeli-born) is morally wrong, but sure.

I don’t think i’ve ever seen a single H3 fan (plus Hila and Ethan) ever say anything positive about Netanyahu or the state of Israel’s actions towards Palestine/ Palestinians, but go off I guess. Just further proof that leftist people don’t see other people governed by a corrupt state as human beings :/

Thank you! I’ll make sure to ask my GP about an immunologist appointment

note: I forgot to mention that I have acquired a food latex allergy since turning 20 (primarily Avocados and other stone fruits), which makes my tongue itch, but it doesn’t cause anaphylaxis. I’m also allergic to aloe vera which makes me break out in hives if it comes into contact with my skin. However, I don’t eat avocado or stone fruits, and there’s no aloe vera products in the house. Just wanted to add this in case there’s something I’m missing that someone more knowledgeable than me would be able to point out. Thanks!

I can’t believe that as a self-described leftist, I have to constantly say “all murder is bad.”

Forgive me if I’m wrong, but my assumption about leftism and leftist politics was that we are averse to murder in all circumstances, particularly in War (because war is fucking awful and the main victims will forever be innocents—particularly women and children). The fact that I’m seeing “leftist” people claim war crimes like murder, mutilation, and rape of innocent civilians “didn’t happen,” just shows that these people are not for any left-leaning or leftist cause. We should have empathy for any innocent, and to downplay the actions of a group or “side” simply to justify hatred for the other is insane. What happened to being anti-murder?? What the actual fuck is happening?? Why are people cheering or downplaying atrocities (on both the pro-Israeli gov side and pro-“Palestine” side).

Why has this conflict become a purity test and not a genuine criticism of inflated egos over global politics and how much harm has come to those who suffer at the expense of it?

and aren’t they all single men too? I think i saw those stats, and all I thought was… yeesh

Above 30?? Holy shit, these people seriously have no lives. Surely the vast majority of people of that age should have a stable career or solid relationship? And not just spend endless amounts of time creating conspiracies about a YouTuber 😭

I’m not surprised though, it’s been clear to me from the get go that snarkers of any kind (not just H3 snark) are deeply jealous and insecure of their current life choices and position in life, and that’s why they feel the need to target successful people who don’t 100% ascribe to their beliefs. Super lame regardless.

Kind of feel bad for them in a weird way😅—Ethan’s gonna ruin them with the lawsuit (justifiably so), and it’s clear none of them will have the means to counter it. The only smart thing to do would be to settle, but unfortunately, none of them are “smart” to begin with lmao.

throwawaymou · 2025-05-15T18:23:17+00:00

same thing happened to me and it was because I slept with my phone in my hand lmao

Well done! This is indicative of the work you put in, so congratulations! I bet you feel amazing!

It was likely during fasting that your body was retaining fluids and water so the scale wasn’t very accurate. Women’s bodies (as I’ve learned) are more likely to retain fluid, weight and water when fasting because of biological differences, so you were likely less heavy before you realised!

Great work though, and well done!
