Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Realistically, do I have a shot at Bath or UCL for Stats?

I'm looking to study either:

Mathematics at Bath
or
Economics and Statistics at UCL

At GCSE I got 2 A*, 3.5 A, 5 B.

At AS I got AABB (Maths, Physics, Chemistry, French).

At A2 I'm predicted A*A*A, and I'm also doing AS F Maths which I should get an A in (finishing in summer with A2s).

Do I have a shot at either of these two? These are my "target" universities, in that I'm not aiming any higher but if I got offers from either of these I would almost definitely go there :smile:

Thanks in advance :P

Hi, thanks for your reply, but I did already know those, although I admittedly failed to specify what I meant.

For example, Oxbridge normally ask for A*AA, but I have little to no chance of getting in there - it's more like A*A*A*Aaa or something academically unachievable for me.

What I meant was that am I likely to get in realistically, even though I exceed the entry requirements, am I actually likely to get an offer?
