After four years you end up with a MPhys rather than Bsc, something
that sits between BSc and MSc I think rather than a real Masters. Lad
is in the process of deciding where he want's to go next year for
Physics, last heard was St Andrews, Durham, Manchester possibly
Warwick/Birmingham but Oxford hadn't been totally crossed of the list
but they don't like being anything other than 1st choice and have all
manner of hoops to jump through.
