Durham offer holders 2016!

Anyone doing Psychology or at Hatfield?!

Does anyone know if the entry requirements are strictly what they specified only or do they accept equivalent results? For example, my entry requirement is AAA but if I get A*AB is it still counted as reaching the requirement?

I'm doing psychology at Hatfield!

This is quite worrying, if you don't mind me asking, which course at which universities did you choose last year?

With the deadline looming, I have a huge decision between Durham/UCL for 1st choice (A*AA) and Nottingham, also A*AA (all natural sciences) or biochemistry at Manchester (AAA). Whilst on paper the latter would be the right choice for insurance, I wouldn't want to stay at home and prefer the other courses. Nottingham offered an unconditional if I made them firm, but am tempted to make them insurance.
I am hoping that either would be flexible, but I guess it depends on the course and how oversubscribed it may be.

They shouldn't have invented this extra grade in the first place, there was nothing wrong with the old system, - and the requirements for natural sciences are always higher than the single science, apparently because it's harder.

Hey just wondering what have u decided? I firmed Durham for Nat Sci. ☺️

Me too! I managed to persuade UCL to change my offer to Biological sciences which has a lower offer which they did, and they are now my insurance.

But Durham is my first choice, need to get that A*!

Which collage have you been allocated to?
Yeah they asking me for A*AA as well with A*A in maths and further maths. Hopefully we both get in. But ugh so tough. Did u go to any of the open days? I did. Absolutely loved it. 😌

St Mary's. Yes the open day was fantastic! Can't wait to go there, but need to get the grades first! Which sciences have you chosen? I'm guessing maths/physics? I chose biology and probably Earth sciences. Would've liked chemistry but I don't do A level maths so that isn't an option.

Good luck!

Subject: Biosciences
Offer:AAA
College applied to: St. Marys
assigned to: St. Marys

Also have offers from Birmingham (unconditional), and Warwick.
I have left it pretty late to firm my choices, but I'm leaning towards Birmingham!

Look at all these student with A*&A and I do Btec business and law and got an offer for foundation pharmacy 😭😭 feel sorry for you Alevel guys

What's your predicted grades for the Btec business?

My UCAS predicted grade is D*D*D* and they want me to get a DDD... Btec's are marked as P,M,D (CBA) the benifit with Btec is that you know the grade your going to get it just needs to be verified last year I got a D*D* & it's all coursework based no exams... Are you a Btec student! What are you studying?

Yep, which other Unis did you apply to? Is Durham your firm and have made an insurance uni?

I only got two offers one at Durham and one at University of East Anglia have you applied this year? And Durham is my firm and University of East Anglia is my insurance

Yep, I'm going this academic year as well. When is your deadline for all of the course work submission Heard it is quite early?
