    What’s uni social life like for someone who doesn’t drink alcohol? Do you have friends who don’t, is it easy for them to integrate and enjoy activities with others?

      Hey! Most of my best friends don’t drink and still have the best time. You don’t need to drink at uni to make friends of have a good time! You can still go on nights out without it with everyone and there are loads of things we do without any drinking at all! It’s all so much fun. Not everyone in the year will drink and you will find your group of friends so don’t worry at all ❤️

      This is amazing!! It’s a long degree so I understand how your parents may feel (mine were probably the same) but it’s definitely worth it xxx

    does that mean exam scores aren't that important when applying for DFT (as long as u pass them all)?

    • @elenashahir4846
      @elenashahir4846  3 роки тому +1

      Yes! DFT is based on your SJT exam you do externally and an interview you do in 5th year also externally 😋
