No, that's for changing them. You can add them at any time.

You can swap choices for 7 days but if you add one straight to Track I'm sure it's for good :frown:

Where are you looking at?

Sent off my application yesterday which was exciting!
Where is everyone else in the process? the majority of my tutor group haven't even started personal statements yet which is crazy.
I'm applying to do Sociology at:
Lancaster, Leicester, Bristol, Coventry and Portsmouth. Anyone else out there hoping to study sociology or go to any of these universities?
Good luck everyone! :biggrin:

I am applying to do Sociology too, haven't submitted my application yet though.

Planning to apply for Lancaster and Bristol too :smile:

Also applying to Sheffield, LSE and I'm torn between Goldsmiths or Leeds :erm:

Going to the opening day for Lancaster on Wednesday, and Sheffield next week. Where have you visited?

Awesome! I kept putting off completing my application for ages but eventually got it out the way!

You're the first person I've found that's applying to some of the same universities as me, as well as the same course! I was close to applying for LSE but wimped out in the end! :colondollar:

Good luck though! I've visited Leicester and Bristol which I both loved, but am also going to Lancaster on Wednesday. Coventry and Portsmouth I haven't visited but they are mainly back ups if, for some reason, I get rejections from everywhere else ha-ha!
Have you finished your personal statement? :smile:

I also looked at Sheffield earlier in the year but it didn't seem to appeal to me. :frown:

What didn't you like about Sheffield? It looks like a less vibrant version of Manchester to me but I'm going to check it out as it seems to have a good rep.

Aha I know right! Not a lot of people on here seem to be doing Sociology or a least not alone (I've seen people talk about doing joint honours). To be fair, I don't think I'll get in LSE but it's worth a try I suppose.

I've finished it yeah :smile:

I just keep putting off finishing my UCAS because I'm so stressed about it all :')

Good luck to you too :biggrin:

and Leicester looks really pretty!

I'm applying to Durham, Bristol, Exeter, York and Sheffield for English Lit.
I've written my statement already but my reference wasn't done at the end of last week and now I'm on half term for two weeks so really stressing knowing that loads of people are still at school and sending them this week. Wanted to send it as soon as I get back to school but looking like it'll take about a week... really nervous as they're competitive unis and a competitive course!

Well done everyone who's sent/received offers already!

I just didn't feel like it was the place for me and I didn't get that 'feeling' I got when seeing Leicester. :smile:

Sheffield is a really good university though, I just couldn't picture myself there! Sheffield has these cute little tram like things in the city centre which are sweet. :biggrin:

I know! I've been flicking through all the pages on any forum related to universities or UCAS and no one seems to be doing sociology as a single honours. I guess that could be seen as a good thing as less competition? haha!
Don't say that though, you should believe in yourself! :biggrin:

LSE is a really good university, my boyfriend applied to do politics there 3 years ago and got rejected but the number of places they give out for politics compared to the number of applications was very competitive. However, that's politics, I'm sure if you're really passion in your PS you'll get an offer!

I was panicking last week loads about whether I had entered everything in correctly but I took the big leap of faith and sent it! I promise you once you send it you feel a lot better :smile:

Ah I get what you mean that's how I felt when I visited Queen Mary back in September when I was thinking of doing English.

Mm perhaps! And well I still need to send mine to college so they can add the reference :/ I know I should really do it soon!

Are you studying Sociology now btw at A level?

I can't apply for two weeks because my form tutor has failed to do 5-10 minutes worth of changes on my reference since the start of the year, while I have been ready for weeks waiting for the oxbridge people to get out the way.
