Same!
But I really arent getting my hopes up!!
AAB will be tricky!

Good luck!

AAB is what I need too! I applied for Mathematics and Statistics. I need an A in Maths which I'm so worried about :s-smilie:

I got an A last year (total fluke - the exam was SO bad, I was expecting like a C) but I'm really struggling with A2 Maths! Hopefully miracles will happen like with last year's exam :biggrin:

What course did you apply for?

I got a solid A at AS....hopefully I can get an A overall. It is harder but hopefully doable!!
An A* would be a dream!!
I applied for Maths G101

A mixture of sociology, social policy, psychology, law and history to do with children. It's for anyone who wants to work with children i.e to go onto do a PGCE or maybe a Social Work Masters or go straight into working as, say a child support worker or go into working on child welfare legislation.

basically wide ranging things you can do with it :tongue:

what are you going to study?

Just got my offer from Leeds two days ago, which came as a massive relief as I was convinced that I wasn't going to get in! :O Now I think I shall be firming it! Bristol is my insurance (if I get in) failing that, Sussex.

Well I've applied for G100 maths course at Leeds and I have to say it looks like one of the best for me personally.

Predicted grades AAB, entry requirements AAB-ABC (access to Leeds offer).

Unfortunately I couldn't match any of the conditions for A2L :frown:

Would have loved a lower offer

For me Birmingham is a lot closer to home and I liked the campus better. Leeds gave me a better offer of AA (in Maths and Further Maths) whereas B'ham want AAB (Maths, Further Maths and Economics) and I'm not sure I can get a B in economics. Also the Hockey system seems to be better at Leeds and I would love to continue playing hockey.

It's gonna take some time to think about it.
