QMUL English applicants/offer holders!
I noticed there's a few of us floating around on TSR so we should have our own thread
A few of us are going to firm and as it's such a big department we might as well get to know some people we'll potentially spend 3 years with.
So, hi guys! Who's excited?
I'm currently trying to decide whether to do English Lit and Linguistics or just straight English as I have offers for both!

Re: QMUL English applicants/offer holders!It should be detailed in your offer, mine said:(Original post by DrinkYourMilk)
Hey guys, I'm curious as to whether AS grades are factored into the total of UCAS points? I'm doing English Lit, English Lang and Politics and predicted As but just in case I slip up, could my B in AS History save me from possible doom?
"This offer is subject to you obtaining a minimum of 360 UCAS Tariff points from three GCE A levels
including
GCE A level Grade A in English Literature"
So basically, no I'm afraid

Have you got an offer already? I'll definitely be firming if I don't get KCL and I'll have Notts as my insurance.
I was looking at Pooley House because I need a big ass desk to accommodate my nerdy computers.
So want the next few months to hurry up! -
Re: QMUL English applicants/offer holders!Yeah, I got the standard 360 points from 3 A levels with an A in Lit. I got back a practice question I did and received a A/B so I'm heading in the right direction.(Original post by Beckiix)

Haha, I have no computers really, just a very creaky laptop from about 2000 B.C.
