    I am doing maths, physics, chemistry and biology ... what about you?
    I am applying to: QMUL, City university, Goldsmiths college...but I'd really like to get into QMUL! Are you applying to other uni's?
    :eek: You're doing all sciences? That's pretty good. I'm getting quite worried now because I think I'm the only psych. applicant this year who has not done a science a-level. I'm doing Psychology, Religious Studies, English Literature and done Biology at AS. The more I talk to other applicants the more I think I don't stand a chance lol.

    QMUL is not (too) far from my house so it would be convenient if I got a place lol Have you sent your application off?

    Don't be negative, you're not studying a science at a-level but you are studying psychology: that's useful : ) Are you predicted good grades?

    Yeah but I can't help but worry about it until I get an offer (or rejection)
    Don't worry it took me ages to finish my PS because I was so over the character limit! I'm predicted A*A*A for A2, how about you?

    I'm applying for Psychology
    UCL, Queen Mary, Royal Holloway, City, Goldsmiths

    I really have no clue what Queen Mary is like at Psychology since it's not in the league tables but hmm..

    It's only recently started running the course that's probably why. Given the general standard of courses at QMUL it's probably the equal of all the others you've applied at aside from UCL.

    I'm applying for Hispanic Studies & Linguistics and English & Hispanic Studies. The first one appeals to me more though, I kind of added the English & Hispanic Studies because I couldn't think of a better course to apply to.

    Yeah, that's what I'm guessing. Well, RHUL might be slightly better considering it's in the top 20. Not sure.
