Re: -manchester applicants 2012-I know(Original post by rural_boy)
Thats so rubbish mate, when did the entry requirements change for your course?
... just over the past few days! I checked a couple of days ago and noticed that they had changed, sent them an email asking why and they replied saying that they're no longer allowed to ask for a 'C' grade in their entry requirements for any degree course!

Re: -manchester applicants 2012-Ahh that's good! Have you reapplied already then? What are you going to study? And same I can't wait either xD(Original post by takethyfacehence)
Good luck this time! I firmed for 2011 too, and missed it too... but they've given me unconditional for 2012 instead, because they still wanted me, they just didn't have enough room this year. Annoying, but I'm still happy!
Good luck to everyone! I can't wait to be at Manchester

Re: -manchester applicants 2012-
Hey guys,
I'm looking at applying for Accounting and Finance at Manchester. It will probably be my fifth choice, because the course doesn't seem as good as other Unis(anyone done it and know what it's like?) and the business reputation doesn't seem as good as elsewhere.
My grades at AS Level
Geography - A
Maths - A
English Lit - A
French - B
A-Level Targets
Geography - A*
Maths - A*
English Lit - A
GCSE's 4 A*, 7 A, 1 B
A* (Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Geography)
A (English Lit, English Lang, Biology, French, Business Studies, Resistant Materials, RSP)
B (Astronomy, aged 14)
How does it look for me getting accepted, and again, would anyone recommend the course?
btw, I'm also wanting to apply to Leeds, Newcastle, Lancaster and Nottingham. Then I'm trying to decide between Manchester, York or some other's that i'm still unsure about
Thanks -

Re: -manchester applicants 2012-The MAP programme is fully called The Manchester Access Programme.(Original post by JakeE10)
What's the MAP programme?
It's for students who live in the area of manchester who got to particpating colleges, and you have to apply and go through all these activities. It's a long process but worthwhile, look it up on google for more info

Re: -manchester applicants 2012-ahhh I looked it up last night, and I meet all of the essential criteria and one of the priority criteria (the post code one) but you have to be in lower sixth don't you?(Original post by Ayah)

Re: -manchester applicants 2012-
Predicted AAB in History, Economics and Politics.
Applying for Modern History with Economics [BA] - ABB-BBB
Can someone rate my chances considering I took both subjects, however I am not sure how much economics to include in my personal statement considering everywhere else I am applying for straight history, however this is my preferred course, should I risk it a bit with the others or just include 2 sentences on economics? Plus economics is only 25% of the course. -
Re: -manchester applicants 2012-can you apply to 2 courses at the same uni?(Original post by Charlottie93)
Wanting to apply for Middle Eastern Languages (Hebrew & Persian) although as you can see from my sig all 5 of my choices are at Manchester.
Hopefully get to re-sit one of my Politics modules and one of my Law modules as I came out with BCCC at As-level and was so close to BBBC (literally a few marks out!)
Good Luck everyone! -
Re: -manchester applicants 2012-yes you can.(Original post by pastalover)
can you apply to 2 courses at the same uni?

Re: -manchester applicants 2012-Hey,(Original post by pastalover)
can you apply to 2 courses at the same uni?
I was always told that you could and that there wasn't anything wrong about it (my tutor said we could pick all 5 from the same uni if we wished) however its generally not advised at my new college.
