Also, you will only pay extra fees if you go to Edinburgh or St Andrews as all the other universities in Scotland have some kind of thing where you only pay a max of £27,000 (Same as a 3-year degree at an English university charging £9,000 a year) It all depends on what sort of university experience you want If you would be better at a Scottish university. Some courses in Scotland will also let you enter straight into 2nd year if you do good enough in your A-levels so thats a thing to think about.
