Hi, hope you don't mind me asking, but what sort of grades are you hoping to get? My friend is stressing about her application for Swansea for ancient history and is predicted BBC and she's doing an EPQ. Do you think she'll be alright?


Erm I'm predicted ABBB, but they've made me an offer of BBB. I know people that have been given offers above what they've been predicted so who knows. Might get credit for EPQ too, my one friend did applying for normal History at Sheffield.

Leeds don't do Ancient History though, so did you apply for classical civilisation then? or something similar?

Sorry just to correct myself, I applied for Classical Studies as a second choice for Newcastle, and for Leeds specifically I applied for russian civilization and roman civilization because it just fitted in with my personal statement :smile:
