The 'Uni Choices' Thread for 2015 Entry!

Isnt it super hard to get into?

I applied with exactly the same grades as you (GCSEs and AS). However, 4 of my choices were physics and Chem eng was my last choice so my PS was completely geared towards abstract concepts in physics and I still got an offer. Will be studying Chem eng at UCL in September. It was only halfway through the year that I realised that physics is only a hobby and I should do Chem eng.

Chemistry with a Year in Industry:
• Sheffield
• York
• Hull
• Cambridge/Oxford (depends on my grades and clearly without the year in industry)
• Leeds/Manchester

I study Chemistry at Hull currently (about to start 2nd year) if you have any questions. Chemistry at Hull is really good, so don't let anyone discourage you from applying if you like the idea of it (I applied to a few russell group unis and enjoyed Hull a lot more).

Top two choices are:

And then 3 of these:
Queens University Belfast
Northumbria University
University of West England

I found out today I can't apply for University of Manchester, as I don't have a science A Level. Pretty gutted about that!

A few universities ask for UMS for certain subjects, e.g. UCL Maths, LSE Econ (both for Maths), Imperial Physics (can't remember whether Maths or just all subjects).
