Not sure of prediction but will be: A/A*...

I got a C in AS economics (prediction)
Will be doing just AS FM next year, and will be applying to places that dont need a full A level in further maths such as lancaster, sheffield, leicester, royal holloway....

Good luck

Oh wow! That sounds good
I got B in AS economics was 2 marks off an A, stupid Macroeconomics =( but I went to check out Sheffield at an open day and I didn't like it there so not applying! But I like Leicester! Royal Holloway is too close to home :P Good Luck to you too

Thank you
You didnt like it? Why not?? I really liked it but i probably prefered lancaster more....
Im going to go look round leicester - have you been already?
I dont think im going to apply to RHUL because its in london and my mum wont let me go to a london uni, plus its in the middle of nowhere and a long way away from my home in york so...

I guess so, although I have no idea how I would have done it without the terms conveniently cancelling.

Are you applying for maths this year? (If yes) Which unis are you looking into?

I did some volunteering job in a hospital for 1 month (full-day), but I don't think it does really related to maths, will universities like people do volunteering?

Nopeee, I didn't like the feel of the university, but I must say the accomodation was FAB, even though it was a trek to get to LOL. And oh right, yes its in the middle of no where and hard to even get into London from there too. Oh right wow! Yeah Lancaster is good too, but way too far for me, I live near heathrow

Aww yeah it did have a nice feel To be honest, i didnt see as much of sheffield uni as i would've liked...i didnt get to the accomodation or the maths talk (went to languages instead...) but it looks good still Haha yeah it looks a bit like its in the middle of nowhere although the founders 'castle' building looks great!!! Oh haha :/ so are you applying to unis in london/south...?

Oh right, well you didn't miss much with the maths talk, you could find everything he said on their website, basically the course break down, but the accommodation was really nice. Urm nope, London and up north LOL. I don't want to go down south. I really like the Birmingham/Nottingham Area! Where about are the ones you are applying to?

Yeah i find that about talks....its all either in the prospectus or website..... :/ Ah well...they're still good to go to for the atmosphere though I've seen pictures of the accomodation and it looks nice Is it similar to lancaster? Oh haha...thats a good area Ermm mainly up north - yorkshire, lancashire area.....liverpool, sheffield, lancaster, leicester....

Oh right, urm I haven't been to see Lancaster sorry. Its WAY too far for me. Sheffield was about 3 hours, don't want to go any further than that. And oh right cool The only same one is Leicester then, that't my definite backup at its AAB, my firm will be a different one

Oh i seee....haha :/ I must've been talking to someone else about it then....too many conversations all at once on TSR!!! haha
All mine are AAB/ABB so i cant really have a lower back-up.... :/

Oh right, I'm scared I'm choosing too risky options =\

Aww im sure you're not!
Where are you applying and what are you're predicted grades?

Yeah I am. Will probably apply to Cam/Warwick/Durham.. Maybe Bath.

Whoa, you've four of my choices! Make your fifth choice Bristol and it will be a total match!

Whoa, you've four of my choices! Make your fifth choice Bristol and it will be a total match!

Predicted A* for Maths
Predicted A for Economics
Dropped French AS, got B.
Finished RS A2 a year early got B 2 marks off an A
Taking my AS and A2 further maths

You?

Hehe, I was gonna match you completely but I went to Bristol and didn't like it as much as I thought. Too much city, and I've been in London all my life... time for a change

So I decided to replace it with a backup, and I liked Kent when I visited a few years back. It's got a good place on the tables, very reasonable entry requirements, why not?
