University of Sheffield 2015 Entry

Original post by emparker1

That's good, wish I had a back up but all my offers were for at least 3A's! Hoping for A*AA, doing Math Physics and Chemistry. What do you take?

I take Maths, physics and chemistry :smile:

Also predicted A*AA (the A* being for maths) ^-^
For AS I took Maths (A), Physics (A), Chemistry (A), Biology (B)
Wow lowest was AAA... Where did you apply?

Exactly the same as me, AS grades/subjects too but mine was B in Chemistry and A in biology! Sheffield obviously, Bath, Birmingham, Manchester and Loughborough. Took me a while to decide between Bath and Sheffield but decided on Sheffield in the end! Where else did you?

Really? ^-^ Hahaha that is kinda creepy! :wink:

Is your predicted A* in maths as well? :smile:

I applied for Sheffield, Newcastle, Nottingham, Surrey and Manchester :smile:

Why did you choose Sheffield? :smile:

It is yeah haha! A mix of reasons really, found it really difficult to decide they are both so different, but the new building looks amazing and the money they offer for getting the grades, also just the feel of the place really. Not the best reasons but everything else between the two was a tie! Have you applied for accommodation yet?

It’s a good a reason as any I think :smile:

. To be honest all the chemical engineering courses looked exactly the same to me. I just chose on which Uni ticked the most of my boxes – Sheffield was the only one that ticked every single one of the things on my list :wink:

Yes I applied for it yesterday. I went for self-catered, endcliffe, ensuite and put endcliffe as the priority. But I don’t really care what type of room I go in to be honest (as long as it isn’t some form of massive studio room). What about you? Have you applied?

Sheffield and Newcastle offered you the same grades? That's confusing! ^-^ Sheffield gave me AAA and Newcastle gave me AAB - Did you get AAA or AAB? :smile:

Oh wait! Did you apply for MEng at Newcastle or BEng? I applied BEng so maybe that's why ^-^

Yeah they did, I applied for the Meng in all my choices, didn't realise they'd let you transfer to the Meng even if you applied for the Beng! It's just scary knowing I either get AAA or possibly no university!
