Institute of Education has great resources and very good people on board. I think you'll need to consider your reasons for why you'd want to study at any of these places. Supervisor, funding, resources, location etc.. Do a pros/cons list. I don't mean to sound harsh, but applying to 16 universities suggests to me that you haven't given much consideration to these details. You need to work out where and with whom you wouldn't mind spending at least 3 years of your life.

Ok... A few people canceled, no one really confirmed this week anyway, I have this terrible cold and it's been p'ing down with rain in London; but I was still determined to go to this meeting.... Then they canceled the train services from my station, so I decided to take that as a sign (even though I am not at all superstitious) and came back home ;-)

I think we could go with real names, but we don't have to reveal our forum names.

should we write PostgradForum on a piece of paper (airport style) or something? :-)

Aloha, your user name suits the orange online icon, because it's got its hands up in the air. I can't help reading your name with such joy when you're online. Aloha! yay! (up) :-)

This "Inbox (0)" problem is back. And this time, the messages show "as read", not new.

Thanks...

haha! we're not doing a very good job of keeping this private, are we? At least the meeting time is not made public :-)

Worst case scenario, we'll all be spending the day with some random tourists visiting the building.

If anyone comes up with a bright idea, please PM all of us or post on facebook, so we can all work out how to recognise each other.

Rubyw, you're right, it might be packed. Whoever gets there first should get a table perhaps? There's another venue just opposite, but shall we leave that to last minute? We can hang around at Wellcome's cafe until everyone is there.

great to hear about "the end". I can't wait to see that day myself.

lol Juno

I can't work out how many are coming, but it looks like we're still meeting?

Once you get inside the Welcome Collections building, there is a cafe and a seating area to the right. Let's meet over there. We have to find a way to recognize each other though. Carnations are soooo yesterday :-)

Also the question has been asked many times is... to reveal or not to reveal (our forum names :p)

Loads of things are happening in London that evening if you guys decide to stay around...

congratulations (up)

Moral of the story (copyright coastman) is, you should always face your fears; they might reveal life-changing news. :-)
