I was looking for one of these, are you sure there isn't one already out there?

anyway,

Course: GV15/ VG51 Mathematics and philosophy joint honours

Universities: Oxford, Bristol, York, KCL. Not sure of my 5th choice yet, but i'm thinking either Manchester or Glasgow.

no idea what my predicted A Levels are but I've already got an A* in my first complete maths A level

Course: Maths, couldn't be sure of the course code
Universities: Queen's (Belfast), St Andrews and I haven't picked my other three yet... Possibly Edinburgh/Glasgow/Strathclyde. Don't really have a clue.

Not sure about predicted grades, already have a full Maths A Level at grade A... and the rest of my results are A at AS level.

Just a query, but how come people are saying they've got an A* in Maths, when A* grades aren't being introduced until Summer 2010?

Because they got more than 90% so it's apparently an A*, although really it's just an A at AS.

Our school (our group) hasn't sat C4 yet, so we should get the A* next summer (I need 80% in C4 for an A* )
