those choices are good but you can replace some of them with better ones? have you had a look at sheffield, bristol, uwe, manchester, brunel?
Yeah i was looking at the top Uni's, however i dont see myself actually hitting or bettering my predicting grades, Year 13 is SOLID, and i just cant seem to wrap my head around any of my subjects :frown:

you'll still have the same degree regardless of wat university the only thing is the "better" universities will have slighty better departments and maybe better research in the field but not really a huge difference tbh :tongue:....why not apply for a foundation year if ur scared u might not make the grades

foundation degree? or foundation year? I would have gone with foundation year just so u can only spend 1 year learning the basics then spend the other years after that doing the proper degree as opposed to a foundation degree thats 2 solid years or more..
I have applied to Glasgow, Liverpool, leicester, Teesside and Sheffield Hallam..... I have offers from Glasgow (ABB) leicester (BBB) and Sheffield Hallam (240 points) and got an interview for Teesside tomorrow :s-smilie: and a visit day at Liverpool some time in February. I took maths, further maths, physics and chemistry. So far got an A-level B and 2 AS levels BC
