Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Should I apply to 3 London Unis + Cambridge + another London / ??

Hi,

Im basically not sure what I should put as my 5th option - Im applying for Biological Natural Sciences at Cambridge and Biochemistry at Imperial, UCL and KCL. Should I apply to a non-London Uni as my back-up (e.g. York, Nottingham, Surrey) or just go for another London uni, even another course at the same institution e.g. Biological sciences at UCL?

Context: I am predicted 4A*s, 95% UMS average, 14 A*s at GCSE, would rather stay in London if not near ie a city-based Uni, and havent actually visited any non-London Unis other than Oxbridge, Southampton and Essex.

What do you guys reckon? Is it worth putting down a course I choose from a Uni Ive only seen/heard about through their prospectus and other people or just stick with London?

Thank youuu

i would really suggest going to look around any unis you apply too so you can really get a feel, and obviously youre the only person who can really decide - apply where you prefer and feel you would be happiest
