Cause uni maths is obviously a lot different to A-level and looming at modules there's lots of physics and computing involved which I personally despise :frown:

should've applied for psychology lol

Generally, I think a maths degree will give you better career prospects than a psychology degree

True but I'd rather get a 1st in a psychology degree than a 2:2 for maths cause I struggle so much

Criminology at Bucks New University. Don't need a career. I'm retired - sort of. Doing it because I can.

I was originally studying astronomy but switched to biology. I hope to either work with animals or in the field of virology.

I will be studying BSc Geoscience at Keele University this year, I'm not sure what I want to do afterwards though :smile:

Hopefully linguistics or English language at Manchester. Both are separate subjects but at the same uni English is my firm and linguistics is my insurance, I think I want to do linguistics instead tho. I picked it because I'm interested in language and communication, I'm not to sure about what job I want yet, I'm quite interested in speach therapy but I still have my options open.

University of Kent. I study Criminal justice and criminology. Studying it because I enjoy learning about criminal patterns and behaviour. Looking to go into Youth probation/social work/perhaps policing

Law at Warwick, preferably with Spanish and French/German. Career: something at the intersection of law, communication/journalism, and research that employs some technical skills as well.

I'm doing a HND in Jewellery and Silversmithing, they also offer a third year to top it up to BA hons.

Once I have done that I plan to (depending on grades and so on) either do a Masters in Gemmology (study of sparklz) or free lance my way as a Jeweller until I can make a name for myself or join a reputable company.
