    Thing is, I've changed 2 of my choices like 4 times since July :S and now I feel all unprepared cos I've only been to see 2 unis. Also I might be predicted like a D for geography, which would screw up everything :(

    I dont go to Uni.
    I still have to do my GCSEs and A levels yet..
    But I can say which A levels I'm considering choosing.
    - product design (WOOO)
    - french
    - maths
    - philosophy.

    I just started at Cambridge after bumming around for a while, it's great, loads of nice people, lots of nice alcohol, lots of good music, and a little little bit of English. The literature is fun though, I was pretty apprehensive, but King's has got a cool crew. I' am told that many funny stories have happened, but I don't recall really.

    Aberystwyth look really nice and the countryside conservation degree looks great but it might be a tad far away :( I'll do some thinking on it though cos I wasn't keen on Sussex...

    I'm in a proper pickle now, I want to change my sussex choice to either Aber or Swansea met, but then that would make Cardiff my highest choice, arghhhhh.

    OK, er, what's the nightlife like?
    What sort of supermarkets are around?
    How easy is it to be vegetarian round that area?
    Most importantly, is the coastline lovely round there?
    Oh and what do you thinks the best thing about the uni? (sorry lots of questions :rolleyes: )

    I'm thinking the countryside conservation course mainly, sounds my cup of tea :D

    hehe

    Supermarkets? there are several different health food stores here, an amazingly cheap LIDL. several other big stores.

    also, you can live on the seafront. I have an amazing view from my kitchen :D

    The sunsets are intensely beautiful here.

    The nightlife is reasonable if you like drinking lots. 54 pubs here apparently. only 11,000 pop. (6,000 or so students i think).

    the coastline is astounding, if you like natural beauty :)

    really you would have to visit to see

    Im a vegetarian, going vegan slowly. I've had no problems finding anything.
