    Maths, economics, physics, history. Still thinking about changing history to further maths because I want to study economics at a top uni like LSE or UCl.

    What do u want do at uni?

    well I love chemistry so I'd think either natural sciences or another degree such as dentistry at barts and the london or pharmacy/pharmacology.

    How big a jump is it (quantity of student-wise) for everyone on here from school to college? Sorry if that doesn't make much sense :s

    For example, I'm going from a school of 800 students to a college of 3700 students :O

    The shop where we went yesterday got so busy that the queue went all the way around the bit by the stands and they had to close it and made everyone go away
    I'm looking online though, really wanted a Paralympic badge (co's it's colourful and cool) :cool: but they're out of stock :'(

    I know this is a bit different but I wouldn't worry about it too much.
    I went from a primary school of 95 to a secondary school of about 1600... And it actually wasn't too bad
    (I'm staying at the same school for 6th form though) x

    Hey guys
    Does anyone know where the "Megacities" series (with Andrew Marr) can still be watched online?
    (i know this is random and it's been a long time since it was on but i've been asked to watch it as one of my pre-6th form summer tasks)
    I just can't find it anywhere it's so frustrating! Grrrr x
