Hey there.
I am wanting to study Computer Science at university. I am utterly stuck between 2 options on where to study.
Option 1 is a large college. I will be able to study Maths, Further Maths, Computing and Politics there which is my preferred choice. However, 25 mile travelling distance, lack of bursaries and a general lack of comfortableness at going there is putting me off.
Option 2 is my sixth form. I will be able to study Maths and Further Maths, however Computing and Politics are not available*. I can study an OCR Cambridge Technical in ICT at Level 3, which I believe is an equivalent but I am worried about Uni's not seeing it that way. Politics may be possible if I am able to persuade my head of sixth form to put it on. Otherwise, I will have to select a different subject.
Does anybody have any ideas on what I have mentioned? My predicted GCSE grades are 4A*, 4A, 1B and I have already obtained 1A*(Maths), 1B and 1C.
My main question, I suppose, is would OCR Cambridge Technicals ICT be enough to get into a top university for Computer Science as opposed to A Level Computing.
