University Prospects

It's that time of my life when I have to decide what universities to apply to. Well, here are my 5 selections.

1. Oxford
It's always the better choice if you start by having big ambitions. Who knows? It just might come true...Like fairy tales.(Bad joke, I know.)

2. Durham
It's part of the Russell Group. There's a fantastic library. It's located at a nice spot where it is near enough to Edinburgh to get there easily and yet far enough to have warmer temperatures. The fact that they ranked third on the league table for English, 2013 didn't hurt either.

3. Warwick
Great library and Russell Group affiliate. What made it my choice was the fact that it is located in the middle of Wales and London and the fact that they had a higher score than Bristol in the "Career after 6 months" section on the league table mentioned before.

4. Exeter
It's part of the Russell Group and located at the southernmost part of the UK. With that being said, the only difference between this university and the others are the facts that J.K Rowling studied there and the "career" score was 63.

5. Edinburgh
Russell Group affiliate. The clincher? Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (Sherlock Holmes), J.M. Barrie (Peter Pan), J.K Rowling (later on) and Robert Louis Stevenson. All the cold air are definitely worth tolerating.
