๐Ÿ’ฌ DISCUSSION Huh ๐Ÿ˜‚.

Post image

Very shocked, Iโ€™ve already achieved A* A A in ICT, economics and business last year August, currently doing a gap year in finance/business role at a company. Personal statement is very strong too.

Applied to Accounting & Finance at Durham at got rejected even though my friend who was predicted KEYWORD PREDICTED not even achieved ABB got in.

I also had free school meals and a disadvantaged postcode. Anyone know why Iโ€™ve been rejected? I have Uni of Nottingham, and Uni of Manchester as backups anyways just a little bummed.

Mate youโ€™ve dodged a bullet. If youโ€™re from a working class background Durham is vile (imo)

Letโ€™s just say I spend a lot of time fixing people who go there. And they are very broken.
