Sociology applicants 2016

Hey all!

It doesn't seem like there's a thread for possible sociology applicants for 2016, so thought I'd make one!

So who is applying for sociology or a variation of sociology for 2016? And if so, where are you all applying? Or if you already have an offer, where from?

I think I'll be applying to do sociology at Manchester, Exeter, Nottingham, Sheffield and Liverpool.

Hi! I'm hoping to study Sociology too next year!

Haven't applied yet but hopefully: Exeter, Birmingham, Bath, Surrey and Warwick! What made you choose the ones you did?
Options:
- Sociology- Bath AAB (with placement)
- Sociology- Surrey AAB (with placement)
- Sociology- Birmingham ABB
- Sociology- Warwick ABB
- Social Sciences (Sociology + Social Anthropology)- Manchester ABB

Likely to put Surrey as my firm and Manchester or Warwick as my insurance. Placement and year abroad options were big factors for me.

AS: ABBC (Sociology, Eng Lit, Geography and History)
A2 predicted: AAB (dropped History)

UCAS was received on the 9th and on the same day got offers from Surrey and Warwick, Manchester then gave me an offer on the 11th. Waiting for Bath and not too bothered on Birmingham.

Good luck with applying :smile: UCAS is stress haha

I wanna be in a bigger city (Exeter is an exception though), and the modules looked really interesting!
I thought about applying to Birmingham as well, although I decided to opt for Exeter.

Good luck with your application!
I'm doing sociology AS and was thinking of studying it in Manchester in 2017!
I've applied for Manchester, Exeter, Bath, Southampton and Bournemouth. I sent my application off on the 10th November.
So far I have offers from Manchester, Exeter and Southampton (all ABB) and an unconditional from Bournemouth :smile:
