Same as me! Atm, OB is 2nd on the list of my choices. I hear Oxford Brookes is pretty good for A&F so 90% likely to apply.

That would be good! Not long till we apply now :/ Hope to meet a few people on TSR before starting. Only thing that puts me off OB is that there is only accomodation building near the business school and its shared bathroom but catered! Unless I read it wrong. But otherwise looks bood :smile:

That's good, I heard most universities take 1 in every 8 people for their courses, who apply their. I'm currently going to start my second year and am taking finance, business and partly computing, but the only problem is I want to re do my maths GCSE and get an A/A*, so yeah..
What about you? :smile:

Yeah I asked my college and they said it would be fine, So I will revise over the summer for 2 months and hopefully be prepared for the exams next year, and the subjects your doing are also very interesting and relevant for this course, best of luck :smile:
I'm sure you'll do just fine, remember to revise, that's all really :smile:
