Wow! Such an interesting combo! I didn't even know Geology was an option at A-level. Our school doesn't offer it.

What school is that if you don't mind me asking? And are you having to learn the content yourself or do you have teachers who actually teach this subject?

Wow! 36! I think my school has like 22-24 A-level subjects but some classes (such as languages etc.) aren't as subscribed where we have like 2 people in a class and it's the only class in the year. Other classes like Chemistry and Maths have like 8+ classes with ~ 16 students per class

Hi, i've applied for English lit and I do English lit politics and geography :smile:
Did anyone receive confirmation of fee status before offer/rejection ? On Euclid it says "predicted fee status".
Other Scottish unis I have applied to have confirmed my fee status, I haven't heard anything from Edinburg.

Hi i got a message on Euclid a couple of days ago (four weeks after i applied) to check my fee status and others personal details (but the link to Track work!). It all looks correct on UCAS and the portal so not sure if it meant anything or just usual process at this point

hey, I just received a message to check my personal details on Euclid. It's probably just the usual process though. Good luck !

Does the link from your personal details to UCAS track work? Mine doesn’t
Mine doesn't work. I have been trying for the past 3 days since I got the message from them.

https://track.ucas.com/ucastrack/Login.jsp is the link I have in the portal but it doesn't seem to work. Anyone else get it to work?
I've also tried it on all web browsers - Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Opera GX - and it still doesn't work.
mine doesn't either
