    Anyone one on here thinking of changing their options?

    I'm looking for someone who wants to change Chemistry and/or Maths as there are currently no spaces in those subjects so i can't change to them if i can't change then i won't be going to Kedst!

    So many people drop Maths in the first month or so, so I'm sure you'll be able to swap in while you're there if you want to take the risk...

    Thanks for that , ultimately i wouldn't mind not doing Maths , Chemistry is my real concern as i aspire to study Medicine. I'm just going to re-request the subject changes on induction day and see where that gets me

    I may as well join the thread, i'm starting kedst this Summer i really can't wait.
    I'm not expecting excellent standards of teaching but what i am looking forward to is
    i) the great resources there, the lovely library etc
    ii) Meeting new people
    iii) There's a town center there so that's convenient.

    Anyone else doing Government and Politics? What about Chemistry are you guys doing Salters or OCR?

    There are some amazing Chemistry and Maths teachers there (Biology ones are okay) soo I wouldn't worry about teaching standards. Although having said that, I had one terrible Maths teacher - the others were great though!

    Also, don't hold your hopes up for the town centre :P
