Clueless on Uni

I am currently in year 12 about to have my AS exams in less than 3 weeks. Selecting a university and getting in, choosing a course is stressing me more than my actual exams as i'm indecisive about what I want to do yet. Any advice you could offer? I feel this stress will bring be down on my actual AS exam performance.

Firstly, what subjects are you doing, that will help you narrow it down, what are you predicted, Is there any place you would like to go or do in particular?

If I was you I'd just forget about careers and uni courses atm and be revising hard. After you've finished your exams then think about it. To be honest I'm at a similar situation but the difference is that I'm doing applied medical science which is btec so my stress is due to the amounts of coursework I have to do :frown: / :smile:

Sorry for the late reply, I'm doing History, English Language, Psychology and Religious studies (philosophy and ethics). I'm predicted BBBA but definitely know I could exceed this if I put the work in. Not sure on the place, but I have an interest to Leeds uni but idk

I literally hate coursework, I feel for you but yeah, i've been told that but i've also been told I MUST have an idea atleast. But for now, I think I should focus on revision and exams :biggrin:

Agreed. That comes after...the results of your AS will effect all that. But then you already knew that.
