So you've been interviewed once? And the funding is secure? Do you know if there are any other candidates?

I met one of the guys who would be supervisor, but he's only a part time member of staff at brum uni. and the guy incharge of admissions wasnt there when I went. It was like an informal chat, but it went pretty well I think.
I asked and he said about half a dozen, but I don't know if that's true or if he just said that to like make it seem I wasnt the only one... I dunno.

There is nothing wrong with getting a third class degree. Nothing at all.

Now get a job.

And come back and play more CoD4.
