I'm back - Sorta... Plus: UK UCAS applicants? You get any replies yet?

[Chris M]

My absence as of late has been due to intense revision for my January AS Economics exams (Units 1 & 3) which are on Friday 16th Janaranoid:

I have missed much recently; Lee and Steve becoming vB.org mods... RC1 being bodged up... RC2 being released...

As a result, I have had less time for my online activities: Suffice it to say I haven't viewed my site for several days, have not been remotely active on Core Forums or some other sites I visit regularly, nor have I been active here or on vBulletin.com...

I hope that I can get back into the swing of things by releasing only a few but well-coded vB3 hacks over the coming months (mostly after next Friday), but I hope to get some of my old vB2 hacks ported over, like my latest work in progress, Attachments per Forum for vB3:rambo: (hopefully to be released this weekend)

I have had some new ideas for hacks, and although I will be fairly inactive at times, I will be here as often as possible with my new college schedule:ermm:

Talking of UCAS Applicants: Did you get replies from any Universities you applied to yet?

I got offered a place at 2 universities just before Christmas!!! (I only bothered applying to 2 anyway)

I applied to UCN (University College Northampton) and Luton University, to study Internet Computing

I firmly accepted Northampton (as it is where I want to go), and it appears they want me to go there, as they lowered the entry requirements significantly:rambo:

I need to achieve 160 UCAS Tariff points (equivalent to 2 Cs at A2) with a minimum of 2 Ds at A2 level!:rambo:

I am currently studying:

German A2 - Predicted grade @ A2: C
English Literature A2 - Predicted grade @ A2: B
Maths AS (with Stats) - Predicted grade @ AS: B/C
Economics AS - Predicted grade @ AS: C

Assuming I achieved my predicted grades (the highest predicted for Maths being a B), this would give me 270 UCAS Tariff points

With my E grade French AS Level (20 UCAS Tariff points), I can afford to achieve the following grades:

German A2 - D
English Literature A2 - D
Maths AS (with Stats) - E
Economics AS - U

This would give me 140 points, plus the 20 from my AS French, giving me 160 points in total:banana:

Suffice it to say: I have very little pressure to work ultra-hard, however I will work to the best of my ability, to ensure that I do not have a mis-hap like last year

If anyone else has recieved offers, post what they are, where you applied, what you need to get, what you are studying and what you were predicted!

So long, and I will be around today and tomorrow to read any responses
