Yup you got a shot at all of them.

You may potentially get 4 offers if you interview well and have a good set of GCSE's and work experience.

Good luck anyway.

Deadline is 15th.

Probably your schools deadline 1st.

I want to send mine off by then but I haven't even had a single meeting with my UCAS Mentor this year.

Hopefully going to sort everything out soon.

Good luck.

Well their just normal teachers with a fancy name...

Business/R.E/normal teachers really!

I have done everything myself too, got some great help from the TSR helper service though.

Not fully decided yet but provisional places are:

Cardiff, Liverpool, Glasgow & Manchester.

What is your fifth choice?

That's a very good time.

But remember it's quality not quantity.

If you can show in the statement/interview you learnt a lot then you will be much better than if you say I did 20 weeks but don't even know what a scale and polish is.
