What are your grades like?

I honestly wouldn't recommend most of those, aside from maybe Nottingham Trent.

Haha really? Most of the higher unis ask for A-Level Maths which I don't have as I'm not taking A-Levels, not too sure on what to do?

I know right, its crazy
Lol I don't understand why you'd add the key 'SE' for software engineering when there wasn't any on the list hahah, that's how I got confused. Never read it through properly just briefly lol

I dunno pal, I don't do A level maths, also found a tonne of good unis that would accept me. Most RG too!

It takes like 10 seconds to find if a uni requires Maths and it takes another 10 seconds to access the uni and the CS course. Yeah, but seriously you need to up your reading skill bro! :biggrin:


Posted from TSR Mobile
Yeah fair enough mate. Haha still got a C for GCSE English so it's all good lol 😂😂
I'm just gonna have to do some research for some RG unis that are decent for CS then.

Was just wondering if there was any more unis you lot would recommend as I'm applying for 2016.
