    NID - try Cex, they give you more if you have the box and all the stuff it came in it. Ups it a grade I believe so you may get more (and more again if unlocked)

    Vanquis bill came through, paid half of it and the minimum's going in Feb.
    ** Total debt: £6950.82 ± May NSDs 1/10 **
    ** Fat Bum Shrinking: -7/56lbs **
    **SPC 2012 #1498 -£152 and 1499 ***
    I do it all because I'm scared.
  • 40% is the pass mark for everyone at my Uni as well.

    WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!?!? :eek: Are you at Oxford or something!? :p I thought 40% was standard pass rate for first year stuff, whatever uni you go to!?!? That's the impression everyone here seems to have anyway!

    Some it's easier to fluke 40% in (like this exam) but others it's a lot harder to do well (the actual coding stuff) so then it's very lucky it is only 40%, they mark so harshly on that!

    How long did it take for form to arrive as I have also applied for a First Direct account , but have yet to hear from them?

    I applied to switch from A/L to them. I hate A/L
