Hi!
I'm a final year undergraduate in Physics, from Sri Lanka. I've been searching about a few UK universities to pursue higher studies after I finish my first degree. I was very interested about the University of Birmingham in terms of their research programs, especially in theoretical physics.

I was wondering if anyone who is currently studying there could help me with few details such as entry-requirements,living costs, etc.
So what should my educational standard should be like to get in there? Currently i'm maintaining a good GPA.
And very importantly, does a TA post alone help you cover for tuition and living(in UoB and generally in other UK Universities)?

I'll be so thankful if anyone could help me with these :-) I'm really trying to get an idea about studying in UK before actually starting the application process .......

Happy 2010 !!!!
