yeah, and no offense, but Sheffield is probably one of the shittest cities in the UK. it's like the iammikeside of cities.
I'm from Sheffield and I don't view it that way.
Knowing me, i'll change my mind. I have Leeds and Hull in mind too.
From what I can see this course is £9000 which is the cap.
To be frank 'I'd rather be at home' when you're just 18 is bullshit. At least go look at some other places.
How are your grades?
It's my choice, you know, not yours and I have other options as mentioned.
And yes, I know Law is AAA or AAB etc. and I did really well last year and i'm sure I can repeat this trend. As long as I work, I should be fine grade-wise.
fair enough, i've lived around the UK and been to so many other countries. sheffield is at the bottom off the list. it's depressing with a poor city centre and night life.
Curious, what do you think of Birmingham?
Sheffield might not be as good city as you say, but I heard the Uni life is one of the better in UK.
If you want Uni life go to Leeds. Big nightlife scene over with anything you fancy, makes Sheffield look like a desert in comparison.
I know it's your choice, I'm just giving you another perspective and being harsh cos I know you probably won't listen.
And I asked about grades because if they're good could you not find somewhere more exciting than Hallam? I mean there's a reason they only ask for 300 UCAS points compared to the rest
It's early days. It's a tentative choice and I did say there are other choices. Leeds, Hull etc. are other choices. I have over a year to decide, I likely won't end up back in Sheffield.
I'll find something that suits my needs and what'll get me a degree to progress.
Try not to be so harsh man.
What reason is that?

The thing is that university is more about the experience, it's a big part of growing up so to just do it down the road seems a bit bland....especially when it's not a particularly good uni, you may aswell just do an open university course
Yeah, i've repeated myself three times now; I have other choices too.

God, Sheffield is a fucking shithole. And I live in Scunthorpe.

Definitely cast your net wide when looking for universities. Personally I wish I hadn't ended up as far away as I did (200+ miles), but putting yourself outside your comfort zone is always rewarding. Even within a 50 mile limit around Sheffield you'd certainly find some of the best places in the country to study your course (might as well go to one of the highest ranked ones you can if you feel you fit in there).
Personally my time at uni....wasn't a great one, but that was due to reasons beyond my control, and nothing to do with the university itself.

Oh, yeah, it's definitely got that going for it.
Cheers for the advice. Just to point out, I no longer live there, i'm in London now, i'd just prefer to study up North.

Oh yeah. In that case then I'd even see what is around London. It's worth investigating at the very least. Though I understand fully if you feel at home up north, the % of people up their own sweaty arseholes is much higher down south.
Of course i'll be checking every Uni I could possibly find. It'll all boil down to which accept me, really. I assure you all, the chances of me going to Hallam is low.

Sounds like a mad night dude!
I had a lame/awesome night. Chilled with the lads having a few beers, watched some Ray Mears in bed, then got a solid 9 hours sleep.
I was actually properly dancing in the van on the way to work, I feel fucking awesome! Last day of work till Monday too.
Ah fuck you reminded me it's Thursday not Friday.
Unfortunately it'll only get worse as people get jobs/married.

Certain people are convinced there is a clique because some of us are pals IRL and stuff.

Well that's bullshit, there is no clique. We all get on and some of us post more than others, some even know each other in real life like you said.

Haha, awesome, glad you showed the boss man a good time. Gutted I had to bail so early, but I'm not sorry this morning! Gotta be all refreshed and well rested for tomorrow....
What are you talking about? This week has lasted years, I'm sure of it.
Felt like it was only Monday yesterday.

The West End (where Glasgow Uni is) is absolutely lovely. Great parks, some fantastic bars and eating places, and it's a generally pleasant place to walk around in. And the City Centre is only a subway trip or short taxi ride away.
