I've currently got a medicine offer at Cardiff but unlikely to meet the grade requirements now. (I think I'll get A*A*B not AAA reqs). Before I was set on Medicine I actually really did enjoy learning about Biomed (the starting reason for med) so I'd enjoy the course. The problem is that for clearing I saw that both Cardiff and KCL typically offer it for clearing (ABB for KCL).

I'm not sure which to pick because firstly I would LOVE to live in London which would be a nice change from living in Cardiff my whole life (always been a must in my life to live there at some point in my life).

Secondly, I also just got a new job 2 weeks ago in Cardiff which is extremely flexible and pays quite well so I'd be guaranteed a part time job if I went to Cardiff.

Thirdly, KCL is more prestigious and I've been looking at the ideas of me doing Post grad med/ a masters/PhD/Going on to do Patent Law instead of Medicine. I personally wouldn't want to become a Biomedical Scientist. At the moment, the 3 jobs I'm interested in are : Researcher/Professor, Doctor, Patent Attorney.

So if anyone can offer me any advice as to which uni to pick PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO. (Maybe if you're at one of the unis you can help tell me more about Biomed there?)

Hi, I’ll be starting Cardiff uni this year at 24. Wondering what it’ll be like as a mature student heading back to get a degree. I’ll be studying engineering. Wont be finishing till 28/29.

Any advice would be appreciated especially in the engineering side of things if possible

Sadly, had an operation and can no longer go!

Would anyone like to make me an offer on the price? They are listed on twickets so can transfer electronically and use PayPal etc..

DM and let me know.

This is my throw away account because telling people where you live seems a bit scary on Reddit 😄

Alumni here - feel super unproductive at home atm with the stifling heat.

Can anyone vouch for the air con in the ASSL?

Would give me a place to get on with stuff over the next few days rather than being an overheated dog at home
