meh....i might as well jump on the bandwagon as well....how do you get from buchanan st station to renfrew street, and also where on renfrew st i might get the 109 bus


come out the side of the bus station thats nearest john lewis - & there you are!
tomorrow doesn't matter,
turn that music up,
till the windows start to shatter,
cos you're the only one who can get me on my feet,
& i can't even dance

I'm only really interested in the tour of the Medic's building and some of the admissions lectures.
Who else is going?

Looking for directions to Glasgow Uni for 2moro, is it easiest just to get into buchanan bus station and get a taxi from there ??

i wouldn't get a taxi, not worth it for the short distance, & the fact it'll probably end up costing a small fortune. probably the easiest way is to get the underground from buchanan st, either that or go to bath street & get a 44 bus out

The student who showed me round the biology department was nice. And the halls of resisdence were much nicer than Aberdeen. And evolutonary biology looked fun.

I'm getting there through the subway to Hillhead (I think that's the name) from buchanan station or whatever its called. The uni was right next to it if I remember right.

The Edinburgh people were so unfriendly after Aberdeen. At Aberden you could just start randomly talking to the nearest person and hey-presto, new friend. Didn't talk to anyone at Edinburgh. I almost talked to someone on the bus but she had a Louis Vuitton handbag and I think she was thinking something along the lines of "scruffy commoner" so I was to scared.

Lol, Edinburgh along with St Andrews is famed for having large numbers of Oxford and Cambridge applicants who dont get a place there so end up and Edinburgh/St Andrews. Some can be from the "higher" social status than most people and are generally known as yah's. Avoid at all costs.

At Strathclyde i went to maths, primary teaching and accounts.
Today at Glasgow went to maths, teaching, law and the tour of the theatre studies department. Glasgow was good, apart from the fact i had a splitting sore head all day... but oh wel, tis all over now. Back to school tomorow.

My mum and dad met at Edinburgh uni. They aren't exactly posh. They're a bit wierd but in a non-posh way.
Oxbridge rejects are going to have to go somewhere, all the uni's near the top of the table are going to end up with oxbridge rejects since that'll be where they apply to.

It was sooo Harry Potterish !!! chuck some owls in there and hey presto you've got hogwarts !!
Thought it was really intimidating at first and told my mum I'd changed my mind and didn't want to go, but by the end of the day, I decided that I wished I was going this year !!!
Only done the dentistry tour 2day, was really annoyed coz I missed the aeronautical engineering and dentistry talks tho coz of the tour.
But all in all thought it was a great day, did u not think the students were so helpful ??!!!

Anyway, I didn't like it as much as most people did.
Lot's of oxbridge rejects go to Durham. That or St. Andrews is my plan for when I'm an oxbridge reject.
