That's the new rules as Tony Blair said everyone can go to University. To do this the lanour govt just renamed every poly or college a universiry. There are 12 remaining where "University is still a University" - Cambriddge being one - at polys/colleges you can study media studies and pass on 40%............Corin could pass

Your right. I been to comprehensive schools all my life, and I'm going to uni in the autumn. I deserve to be where I am, unlike some people.

Good for him :]

No. He's at Oxford. Not exactly an ex-polytechnic.

If that's true you're going to need to learn the difference between your and you're, and between there and their and they're.

It says Oxford on the Channel 4 website. But whatever, same meat, different gravy.

Whatever. I'm not trying to pass an English test on this forum so why should I care.

Snobbing people is wankish? The poster said they're off to uni in the autumn in a post that was barely literate. I don't pick people up on their English skills... but in this case it was relevant. I wasn't even talking to you.

Typically when you pick on people's grammar it's a sign you have nothing to come back with :)

As for the topic at hand, Well done to Andrew.

Delightful 20-07-2010 11:33 PM

My stepson got a first in Ancient History along with five others on his course. He's not a genius, nor does he claim to be, so why was Andrew called a Maths Genius?

Beastie 20-07-2010 11:44 PM

Well done Andrew!! Yeah I got a bit sketchy about the genius thing.. think I was expecting him to get higher but suppose Maths is a ghastly hard subject anyway!! Maybe he knew he was going into BB when he was doing his exams.. got so excited and lost some concentration?

Jarvio 21-07-2010 12:02 AM

2:1 is a good grade. Why are people on here being so stuck up? It's second highest, a first being the only higher possibility. 2:1 is damn good, and degrees are not easy! I got a 2:1 myself, and very proud!

That's 31% he either got wrong or didn't know...:sleep:

A huge fail from me.:sleep:
