Bath for economics?

I didn't like it when I went, and felt that they were trying to play a game a bit (they have entry grades of A*AA to make them look oxbridge/ UCL/LSE level, but said they drop it to AAA or sometimes AAB if you firm them).

I wouldn't say they're UCL/ LSE level, but they're close and are less particular grades wise.

If you're international it's more difficult, if you were in the UK I'd say you should go to Bath uni on an open day, as it's a REALLY small campus which I didn't like but know a lot of people who did!

hope this helps

Well, as far as I know they haven't done that for anyone this year.

I'm glad to hear it, although it would be on results day, they said to me that if I was considering UCL and LSE then to firm them because they're more lenient on results day

Haha, if it is how you say it is then I'll be over the moon. On the Economics open day talk this year they stated that it's unlikely that if you miss out on the grades you'll get in.

Bazaar, I went there this year too and when I spoke to a lecturer he said they would :P

I'm firming Bath BSc Economics. It's very good, but it's not the best. Have you considered the likes of LSE/Warwick? I'd say Bath was about equal with UCL.

I prefer showers when i'm doing economics.

I'm from the outside of the UK and I would like to know if Bath is a good university for economics (sure it s not oxbridge)

At the undergraduate level, there is a lot of muchness in all the courses. The content is broadly the same at most good universities, and also the career opportunities are more similar than students realise.

Bath is a great place, but small and more quiet than some universities.

What sort of atmosphere do you want when attending university?

Hi

I've made Bath my firm choice recently, and would be interested to know a bit more about the "entry requirements".

When you said they sometimes drop it to AAA or AAB (which would be absolutely fantastic), do you mean that they do it after results day?

let's say if someone firmed Bath but failed to achieve A*AA, would they still accept him?

Or do they lower the requirement much earlier on the UCAS system before exams even started?

Many thanks if you could help.
