hi, im y13 right now and applying for ucas rn. ive picked university of manchester, birmingham, lancaster, warwick and nottingham.
uob as firm. lancaster/warwick/manchester as insurance idk yet.
so i want to do a BSc in psychology. im slightly put off by how much statistics it has. got a c in maths and b in biology gcse.
the main problem is graduate prospect. i read there were 4000 places and only 600 places. thats a 15% chance of success which is lower than oxbridge..
so i need advice if i should go on. psychology modules at uob and manchester seem really interesting and being a clinical psychologist really seems like what i'd like to be doing until i retire.
should i do a 4 year degree with a placement to gather experience and go straight into a clinpsy doctorate or do standard degree with some experience along the way during y2 and y3 then do a masters then doctorate?
also anything i can do to give me an advantage over others when applying for a doctorate?
