    what subjects do you guys do+predictions? i do german, philosophy and english, predicted aab
    I do Fine Art, History and English Lit and I'm predicted AAB.


    Another offer from Birmingham - ABB. They've said I can get the A in any of my subjects as well which is good, I've heard that other places specify what you need to get the A in when they give you your offer.

    Hey I've been looking for a HoA thread for ages haha

    I have ABB predictions and I'm applying to Edinburgh (I should be so lucky) Leeds, Nottingham, Kent, and Reading

    I'm hoping to get into Leeds, but it says if you are selected for an interview you have to bring a portfolio, so seeing as its a history of art degree, does anyone know what sort of things they'd be looking for in your portfolio?

    and yeah I sent my UCAS off on the 4th of November and they all replied saying they have my application so I'm absolutely bricking it right now haa

    i was looking on the 2011 HoA thread and a lot of people were saying they didnt even get their questionnaires till early december, so im guessing we'll get ours around there too..
