We have finished our AS levels, some A2 students are applying for deferred entry. So, seeing how exams went, I believe we must have a pretty accurate idea of what we want to study, and where? Simply list where and what you want to study and that's it! I'll start off myself.
Courses Chemical Engineering - Imperial College Chemical Engineering - University of Birmingham Engineering (Chemical) - UCL Chemical Engineering (via Natural Sciences) - Cambridge University Chemical Engineering - University of Manchester
IGCSE results 7 A*s, 2 As and 1 B
AS Levels Maths (CIE) (C1, C2, S1) - A Chemistry (CIE) - A Physics (CIE) - A Applied ICT (CIE) (self-taught) - A English (CIE) - B
There are already threads for this, definitely for Oxford and Cambridge. You may want to look at them?
Not looking at University specific threads! Just state which 5 you want to go to, not individual forums for each. I am actually in both those forums :P

Computer Science (might go for Software Engineering but we'll see about that) at: Nottingham Queen Mary's King's College UCL Cambridge/Oxford (still undecided, however, Oxford seems to be more lenient towards applicants without FM, as it's not offered in my school and I'm just self-teaching at As)
Computer Science is a great choice. I'm just about to start my placement year with SAP in Belfast in July. I recently finished my 2nd year at the University of Ulster Jordanstown campus.

Thanks What did you enjoy the most about studying it?

Well, it's really just opened my eyes because I didn't really know anything about programming at all, last summer I made my own app called Student Budget which has nearly got 3,000 downloads on the Google Play Store
I'm not sure of your background, perhaps you did programming in secondary school but I did none and once I started my course and started doing some Java, I was like "yeah I could do this for a daily job, doesn't seem too bad".
One of the things I like about computing is that during your career, you can be switching between working with the newest technologies if you wish or if you want, such as wearable devices such as Google glass, Android Wear, etc or you can just stick to mobile apps or desktop applications or whatever

Oooh cool! So the good thing is it's varied and for everyone. I like that
