"Maybe there's a god above, and all I ever learned from love... was how to shoot at someone who out-drew you. It's not a cry you can hear at night. It's not somebody who's seen the light. It's a cold and It's a broken hallelujah." ~ Cohen -

Hey, don't knock it 'till you tried it. Thoguh I also turned down Oxford (for my undergrad) and went to manc instead.Originally posted by Sagacious Dolphin
Be sure that Cambridge is the place for you. My experience of "Oxbridge" students has lead me to believe that it is not suited to certain "personalities". I am one of very few people to have actually turned down an offer from Oxford, because I found the place stuffy, pretentious etc. Cambridge may be different these days, you'll have to ask Chowlett.
BTW the following year Imperial College, my chosen university, overtook Oxford in the league tables.

I missed this post... Yeah, I will have to go to a thousand open days etc... I'm not sure I can be bothered with all the pressure and stuff. I have my own mental image of Oxbridge students who just know they're so great... I don't know how closely that'll match up to reality, but whatever, its CAMBRIDGE

He's Dutch, he said so himself that he qualifies for both. He's in the Netherlands 4 weeks a year (or at least that what he implies), that's plenty... Any self-respecting patriotic Dutch person (do such people exist?) would vote for the Glorious Nation of the Netherlands! God bless our tulips! God bless Maxima!Location poll, not nationality.

Actually I'm in Luxembourg for the four other weeks. My parents work for the EU there. I haven't been in the Netherlands for 3-4 years. I do have a dutch passport though. I think this poll is to give us all location specific adsOriginally posted by Locutus

Its a great university yes - I'm not knocking it, but you have to be sure it suits your personality, that's all. There is more to choosing a university than going by its reputation.Originally posted by lightblue

The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all.
