Open Question: Cigarette prices in Edinburgh? Please help!?
Hey everyone, I am going to be spending next semester in Edinburgh, and I leave on Friday. I'm trying to do some last minute budgeting here. As a fairly heavy smoker I need to determine how much it will cost me over there. So, how much does a pack of cigs cost in Edinburgh? Or, is it more common to roll your own, and if so, how much for a pouch? Thanks in advance for your help! ps- Quitting isn't an option :) pps- And I've already gotten enough lectures about this from my parents :)) (more...)

Resolved Question: Am I Oxbridge material?
Hello! I'll be applying to University at the start of the next academic year and was wondering if Oxbridge is within my league, or if it will just be a complete waste of one of my four/five applications. I understand that there are far more qualified students than me that will be applying, and of course, I know that just because I might be 'qualified' enough to get into such a University, it doesnt mean I'll get in. We'll start with my grades from GCSE and my pedicted grades for AS Level. GCSE: A*s in History, Physics and ICT. As in Biology, Chemistry, Maths, English Lit, English Lang, PE. Bs in Statistics (taken 18months early) and RE (shortcourse). ** I'll be resitting my Maths GCSE come Summer for an A* and if necersary I could persuade my Head of Science to allow me to resit my ISA exams in Biology and Chemistry. (I didnt take the ISA too serious, I did however get A/A* grades throughout the modules). A/S Levels: These are predictions made by both myself and teachers. Biology/Chemistry: 'A', and also my teachers will be saying my predicted grade at A Level will be A*. Phyiscs/Maths: 'A'. Also my Maths teacher especially is hopeful for me to set a good foundation for an A* at A Level this year, but wont be confirming this until my AS Level results have been released. Although my A Levels might not reflect my results from GCSE, I didnt revise for my GCSEs much at all because of circumstances at the time. But can asure you Im doing mighty good on the mocks and determined to get my predicted grades! Well, away from my academic qualifications now... I'm almost guarenteed Head Boy at the latter part of this academic year, being that there are only 2 boys in the school council... Myself and another boy who talks little english and is extremely shy, (you must be on school council to be nominated). I used to play rugby for my City, but after quite a severe injury to my knee (it went back on itself at a 90 degree angle), I had to have a major operation that, luckily for me allowed me to walk again, but gave me no option but to quit. I know keep myself in good shape up the gym and with light running. I am also a member of Mensa. I dont go to any of the meetings or anything and basically only done the test because I wanted to see if I could get in... So I might either start going to the meetings or just leave this out of my Personal Statement altogether. As for myself know... I like to think Im thoughtful towards others, and will always be happy to help where I can. I have excellent reasoning skills and can make others believe anything I wish to do so (I tend not to abuse this, but rather use it as a joke. For example, Dianna Vickers off the X Factor, she never wore shoes and I made nearly everyone I told believe she had bunions from wearing high heels too often >.<) I take a keen interest in learning and always want to extend my knowledge. I do not work or hold any voluntary positions (only helping the disadvantaged first years at my school). This isnt because I dont have the time, I just dont want to be bullied into working til late every night like all my friends. I might start up volunteering in the New Year. As for what I want to study... I'd like to read Medicine at University. I believe I would enjoy the hard work and challenges involved, and would love to look back in later life knowing I put my scientific interest in something worthwhile that helped people. I have arranged many work experiences for the New Year that I am looking forward too. Now I understand that even to myself, this all looks good on paper... But nearly every other student applying will have equal A Level grades and could and will have alot more to say. For example, Duke of Edinburgh Awards; Army Cadetes; Been volunteering for years; A lot better GCSE results; Member of the 'mock' EU meetings (my school couldnt get enough people together for this). And the list goes on. So I just need another opinion. What do you guys think? If I dont quite meet the strict criteria, what other 'high end' schools should I try to aim for? Any advice is greatly appreciated! Thanks for reading! Just looking at other threads in this section, and to show you of things Im worried about... Theres a student who applied to Oxford with 10!A*s GCSE and 4As A Level... and got turned down! I understand theres more to it than grades, but still.... This ISNT because I dont have the time for the comment on me not working because I dont have the time. Funny how your entire comment is based on something I did not say. Read again... I dont work because I dont want to be bullied into working late every day like all my other friends! I didnt spend 30minutes typing this question up for someone to not read it and then post an invalid comment. (more...)

Resolved Question: Shall I do this?
I am a 14 year old girl about to embark on my bronze Duke of Edinburgh award. I have previously (In June) completed my practise edpedition and went into it with a very positive attitude. However I can describe it as the worst experience of my life. My feet felt like they were peeling off and I was walking on coals, I was hot and sweaty even at night, our food was shit and I felt ill despite my optimism. In september I am going to do the real thing. SHall I do it? It is less and I am so so close now, I feel like I should just do it and do lots of training (not sure what) but I feel a sense of dread even now and I dont really care about getting the award. What do you think, I think its 15 miles by the way. Shall I just do it or should I quit? Have you had any similar experiences? Thanks Guys (more...)

Resolved Question: How to deal with stubborn friend?
My friend is wanting to quit 6 form. She wants to drop out and go into pharmecy at tesco, but it's been her dream for years to go to Edinburgh uni to do medicine. She's struggling with one course, which she now has a tutor for. I don't know whether to try and get her to stay against her will or just tell her she should leave. She's one of the cleverest people I know and she got 1 C 2 B's And the rest were A's and A*'s in her GCSE's. I need advice because myself and my other friends are at a bit of a loose end. (more...)
