Okay well I'm applying to go to university this year and I am considering Oxford. I have the grades I need so it means I could apply and possibly stand a chance of getting in, but of course it all comes down to the interview.
I guess my main problem is - I don't know how much I actually want to go there. I think if I was to go somewhere else I could enjoy it more, have more fun, meet more people and maybe get a better degree at the end of it.
On the other hand I think it's "Oxford University" people don't just say no to oxford uni. And just suppose I did get in, it would only be for 3 years of my life and at the end of it all I would have a degree from Oxford.
I guess I'm just wondering if anyone has faced the same sort of dilemma or went to Oxford and can tell me a bit about the social aspect of it. Coz I've heard that it's so much work and so there is very little social time. And I really want to have gone to University having had both a good time and of course learnt a lot - not just having spent 3 years writing essays in the library.
Thanks
