Which college is better?Which college is better for doing a levels? Kingston or Westminster? I am sooo confused :/
I feel more comfortable around Kingston coz I know the place and have friends there and also I know I can do well if I work really hard. But all my friends are saying I should go to Westminster and I have better chances of getting into a better uni :/
The ofsted report of both colleges are pretty much same :/
What should I do? -

Westminster is one of those colleges which isn't specifically targeted to 16-19 year olds, but mature students.
There are a few campuses as well, teaching isn't amazing but ok from what i've heard.
It honestly depends on what you can get out of the college. Everything has to be taken into consideration. -

Yes I do realise that.. I'd actually like to go to Kingston rather than Westminster purely because I know the place, I know the area, I have friends and I feel comfortable. And in order for me to give my best, I need to be comfortable in my surroundings. And education wise, I know that I can achieve best grades by working hard.(Original post by Iqbal007)

Re: Which college is better?Then clearly you've made your mind up to be honest, if your going to perform better at Kingston than why think about Westminster. Westminster College will at most give you that "new" experience that you get at uni, where you start afresh and that's about it.(Original post by Am.K)

Plus if Kingston is closer to you, travel will be less of an issue and make working at college easier

And I know I will if I work the way I normally do.. Right college and right teachers matter, but at the end of the day it's me who has to work hard and inshallah I will

Re: Which college is better?It does, but having crap teachers surprisingly makes people work harder(Original post by Am.K)

Remember to use all resources including that of other teachers by asking a person in that class and looking on-line
