Which universitys offer the best social life?HELP!*

Dawson2010

Im going to do a business managment course, predicted ABB currently. But my GCSE maths at a C limits me a lot! Which means manchester, lancaster, edinburgh wont take me :frown:

Anyways, my current ideas are Leicester which seems to be the best for teaching business but im not sure how interesting the city is as im moving from newcastle, the ultimate uni city.
My other ideas are Sheffield, Heriot-Watt(In edinburgh), Dundee or Aberdeen and possibly Uni of East anglia.

PS- If your feeling extra helpful please leave some ideas of top business universities with great social life city's, which arnt wantingg GCSE maths at B, around BBB for entry?
Need some good backups

I would doubt your suitability for going to University if a 'good social life' is at the top of your agenda.

If your priority is social make sure you stick to a City. Manchester Met or Leeds Met? Westminster?

Has to be a good uni, social life comes second. Not interesting in Met uni, Manchester and Leeds would be my first options but they want Maths B....

Cardiff is epic in terms of social life, Bristol is pretty decent also.

Tip : resit.

Why don't you resit GCSE Maths this year at your college? Then you can apply to good city Universities.

Try LSE.

lol LSE, your joking.
And i cant resit, school wont allow me, I asked, apparently maths has changed, ah well ¬¬

Is there no way you could resit your GCSE maths? Maybe you should take a gap year and dedicate the year to getting a really good maths grade.
You shouldn't settle for second best- if you know that your A Level grades could get you somewhere much better than your GCSE maths grade allows, then why let it hold you back?

Problem is, id rather take second best than a gap year, good unis hate that and will limit me far more than a average math GCSE ever could. And id fall behind friends and that...

Look into IMB at UCL; i don't know about the GCSE maths but ABB A level grades should be ok for you.

Insane as in terrible? If so I would agree.

Try a crap London uni if all you want is a good social life.
