Ahh i didnt know you could take an insurance, and reject your firm if you wanted!
They are both 260 but sheffield has a slightly higher requirement with respect to how many points must come from A2, so i could firm sheff, higher, and insure lincoln, slightly lower - but then take either if i got 260?

Oh, I don't know if you can do that. Might want to check with UCAS to make sure. But I assume that if you didn't get it from A2 entirely, then Sheffield would be invalidated and you could go to Lincoln. On the flip side, you could always email Sheffield and still go, if they let you by short of a few marks.

Hmm well both want 260, but Sheff want 160 of that from A2 (CED!), as where lincoln havn't specified, the 260 must just include two A2s, even at (EE)!
So i guess Lincoln is the lower offer, but yet its my preferred uni, so do i firm or insure?
