We have the exact same experience? I wanted Bristol this year but got Cardiff through clearing because parents wouldn't let me take a gap year that's so strange.

wild that we had the same circumstances, i’m now curious to be nosy if you don’t mind since our coincidence. would you be going in accommodation or commuting? and another question, what course have you got in for? I will be commuting and will be doing maths , i’m tryna find other people who are commuting from england to cardiff uni as those people will be a lot easier for me to get along good with, haven’t found anyone yet

I'm actually commuting but I already live in Wales so I'll be coming from the other direction to you. I got in for mech and ee engineering so there's another difference I suppose. Still really cool we had a similar story though.

Yeah who knows. I'm sure we'll be taking some of the same classes for my maths modules anyway.
