    I *think* I will be applying to Exeter, either economics with a year in industry or with a year abroad. I really like the look of Exeter. Does anyone know whether the flashy new developments at the Streatham campus (shown in the prospectus) will be finished when we start, or will we be studying at a construction site for three years?
    Yeah they'll be finished in time for our start I think!! I'm applying to Exeter too, for English Studies (Q300 i think), am quite exited as loved it when I visited! Haven't sent off aplication though... x

    Same :yep: although I'm not planning on going to America, I loved the look of History at Exeter, I'm just really scared they'll reject me or give me a really hard offer (A*AA)

    Hey, I applied for Business Economics with International study, what are your subjects and predicted grades. I'm regretting the international study course because of how competitive it is:confused : ..

    ermm I took Psychology, English lit, History and Economics at AS and I got ABBB and I'm predicted A*AA at A level, dropping English Lit. I'm retaking two of my AS though to try and get them up to an A (fingers crossed).

    What about you?
