Congrads Julia, you so deserved it!

I'm now living in campus accomadation (city campus) so it worked out in the end. :)

None.

Yes you can but below degree level.

That's because you have expectations and are a perfectionist. How you do isn't good enough and you always strive to do better. That's how you got on the PhD in the first place. If you feel the other projects and seminars are getting in the way of your PhD, explain this, because your PhD is what matters most.

This happens a lot (even to Darwin). The best thing to do is to point out that someone had come up with it first and you're verifying it (plus add extra evidence if possible to show new discoveries).

Yes Golfpro is right. Your uni messing it up for you makes no difference.

You can buy a PhD title online (like Gillian McKeith did.....).

Hi it would help. Whether it's essential or not depends on the candidate. How you have did in your first degree would also have an impact at those unis (I know because I have contacted Cambridge myself about a PhD research project and they took into consideration what I got).

Thanks to top up fees unless someone is wealthy they're unlikely too be able to afford all the expensives assoicated with a masters. :(

There are also career development loans. I took out one to pay for my MSc.

Your career centre should be able to give you advice.

I'm sick of people asking this question; the answer is on every page of this forum!!!!

You have to have proof to say that James (ie a report). I'm dyslexic and I couldn't have gotten a 2:2 without extra help given because of it. I never heard of anyone able to complete a degree and then finding out they're dsylexic (it takes away the whole problem of dyslexia in the first place).....

Shang it varies between unis.

If you have medical proof definitely mention it!

Payments can diverted up to 17 months if someone is on JSA but it's not guaranteed.
