Plymouth applicants 2014!

Howdy! :biggrin: I couldn't find a thread for 2014 applicants, so here we go!

I've already finished my A levels, and I'll be applying for environmental sciences. I love the city of Plymouth, and can't wait to apply. What are you looking to study? Anyone coming to the open day on the 19th October? :biggrin:

Awesome, hello! :awesome: :five:What subjects are you taking/did you take? I can't believe our course offers diving, how cool is that!? :biggrin:

My UCAS was sent last night after finally getting approval from my old sixth form... Already have an email of acknowledgement from Oxford Brookes, but really want to get into Plymouth. Got the programme through, too, last night. The environmental science has a talk at 10:45. Since I live over 6 hours away (Dover),and considering a breakfast stop, checking in and the usual Plymouth traffic, that means a 2:30 get up. :shot: But we're staying in a B&B on the Saturday night in a village we know quite well not far from the nearby town of Kingsbridge, so it's not too bad. :smile:

I got 8A*s 5As and a B at GCSE and 4As at AS. I'm predicted A*AA.. UKCAT 717.5
Would Plymouth be a good choice with these grades?
Also, regarding the course, what type is it? And what's the interview like? Also, what's the applicant per place ratio like?
One last question.. what do they put a lot of weighting on when they look at applications?
Sorry for all these questions.. It's just I'm so indecisive and confused on where to apply.
Thank you

Oh that is really cool, good luck with everything! Do you know which one you want to go to most yet? :biggrin: Oh yes, the diving. I'll have to learn how to swim again as I haven't been able to for quite a while due to health reasons. :redface: I did history, maths, further maths and chemistry. Good luck with your A levels and everything!

Obsessively refreshing UCAS Track every couple of hours...!

If you apply and get an offer you are invited to a post- offer day I believe... I think you go around the halls and visit the department and stuff.

Im also going to be applying for Geography at Plymouth, Will it be your firm or Insurance?
