Forget Medicine, I'm being an Actor now. I guess I was pretty good in Year 8, I had to do a bunch of drama stuff, cringey now in hindsight.


Tell me about it :s-smilie: Thinking back, the stuff I did in Year 8 was so weird :s-smilie: . In Drama I made a story about a busker who became a world famous musician :tongue: I also did a fairy tale parody thing called Fairy Fail :facepalm:

No, for architecture:

Mathematics, Physics, Art (anything else) at A2.
Further Maths AS

Would guarantee you a spot :wink:


There are other factors to getting into uni :lol:

Architecture has very little maths so if that's good then sure, but otherwise architectural engineering would be better :awesome:


Architecture needs lots of maths.. As does architectural engineering... I wanted to be those, still would if I could do loads...

My school sent a G&T letter, and apparently on the Gifted and Talented Reigster, I am gifted in Drama, Maths, RE, Science and History. My best subject, English, I'm apparently just average in :frown: But my C subject, I'm gifted in :s-smilie:


I'm G&T in something (or maybe somethings) but I have no idea what :tongue:

EDIT: Wow, late. Guys, you talk too fast :tongue:

No I swear I've heard from architecture students that the course has very little engineering/maths.

I like interior designing, do you know how competitive it is and what I might need to take for AS + A2?

You really wouldn't need physics or further maths for pure architecture :smile:

you sure, do you have any idea on what else could i take to replace it?

Well, you could get in with a mixture of science and essay based, economics, geography theyre all.useful!

And I've wanted to be everything :tongue: so I used to look at requirements for everything... (Cambridge)

Yes you would need physics... Architects need maths and physics... Structural engineers would use further maths as well..
Wow you guys are so well prepared. In comparison I must sound like one of those five year old kids that say "When I grow up, I want to be a pony" :lol:

I remember I was a chav for something, I think my main skill was having good memory as my friend was gone on an Art Trip, so I had to learn his lines and perform them that same day. But the worst thing was some Prince Kano thing, I was the main character and it was extremely camp. :colondollar:
Art & Design is more sought after than Design&Technology though

Don't you want to be a vet? I remember that from somewhere..

You're more prepared than my sister was in her second year of uni, when she still had no idea what she was going to do :tongue:

Sanitation engineer? :rofl: Cute!

So far from the usual doctor/firefighter/paramedic/etc that you usually get :tongue:

I have gone from Accountant to Barrister to Computer Scientist though...
