Wasn't sure what forum to post in, but I've been considering my contingency plan should I not get the grades to my first choice (sheffield). My insurance is Leicester which I have an unconditional for, so I have a place even if I do terrible. However Leicester is around 1hr 15 from me and Sheffield is only about 30mins, plus Sheffield is a much better uni being part of the Russell group. I can't decide whether I would rather spend another year to try and get the grades again if I don't get them - or to go to Leicester which is much more travelling and would by the looks of it make maintaining my relationship extremely hard.
So basically, has anyone else been through this and what did you decide? And pros and cons towards re-sitting or going to my insurance choice.
Cheers.
