DS heading back on Friday. Assessment period so no formal semester 2 until Feb at Bath, and he has exams before then. I picked him up before Christmas to avoid the trains and bringing any 'surprises' back into the house, but he's getting the train back as we're both working and he doesn't want to wait for the weekend.
He's still thinking masters but I think he's missed the boat on transferring to an MMath. I like the idea of him at least banking a BSc first where the MMath doesn't seem to. Don't know for sure but I assume some of his housemates are hoping to stay on for a 4th year to actually get some University life, so if he can't get on the MMath and the standalone masters at Bath isn't to his liking, not sure what he'll do.
Then we have DD who is likely to take a gap year as she can't figure out exactly what she wants to do (something in games probably), all this research could have been done with School support but she's just not engaged with it. And she's having extra support from the school for maths to try and salvage something. At least that'll give us real results to use for applications, but I am concerned how much research she'll do without having the school available to help and guide.
