2016 Durham University hopefuls

Hello everyone :smile:

My subject: Law
GCSE grades: A*A*A*A*A*A*A*A*A*A
AS-levels: AAAA in English Literature, French, Religious Studies, and Fine Art (dropped art at A2 btw)


I applied for University College, but I won't be surprised if I'm not allocated there (if I get an offer at all, that is) because it's so popular. I liked Chad's though :smile:

I'm applying for education and sociology
GCSE: 5xA*4xA
AS-Levels: 2xA 2xB
Predictions: AAA

And I wanted to apply for university college but this thread has kinda put me off because I didn't realise it was so oversubscribed... perhaps if nobody applies because of the oversubscribing it won't be anymore lmao

It's unpredictable whether you get into Castle as it is so popular. But then again other colleges such as Chads, Hatfield etc are popular too. I'd go for it, you never know your luck.

Hi everyone -

I got 17 A*s at GCSE, 4 As with a 98.7% average at AS and an A* in Further Maths. I'm not sure I'm going to get in for PE. What do you think?

Thanks -

Riley.

Not really unrealistic, you've got good GCSEs and excellent AS :yep: I'm thinking I'll go for Cuths, I quite like the Parson's field site.
