I really liked it! But now im torn between MAnchester and Nottingham as I have offers from both and they were my top two :s

I'm going to one in the new year as well! I hope to gain clarity on which uni to choose as well where I feel most comfortable.

Your reaction: So so so so so so so happy!


2 Offers in 1 day, well done!!!!
Got 4 offers so far from Birmingham, Nottingham, Liverpool and Kent.

Still waiting on my first choice Lancaster though :frown:

Has anyone else had any trouble with universities saying they're going to offer one set of grades on the UCAS website, then actually upping the grades when they give you an offer? Kent did this for me, so now i no longer have a back up :/
I got all my offers, as of yesterday. So happy! I've just got to choose between Newcastle and Liverpool to firm. :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

But I already miss the excitement of waiting for UCAS to update!
I finally got my first offer yesterday. Felt like I'd waited ages, in reality was only 2 weeks- BB from UEA for International Relations as I already have a B in History. Definitley in my top 2.
Does anyone have any idea how valuable a placement year is for a psychology degree?
I doubt there's much you can do about it, but in the interest of fairness and equal consideration, Universities are meant to set their entry requirements and stick to them at least until the 15th Jan equal consideration deadline - you may not have ever applied to this University if their entry requirements were that high. You might be perfectly capable of meeting those requirements, but others may now feel they have wasted one of their choices. They should at least be able to give you an explanation as to why your offer is higher than what they have advertised.

Hey everyone. This seemed like the most appropriate place to put this question. I recently got an offer to study psychology at Goldsmiths and on the UCAS website it stipulates they require ABB but my offer is for AAB. I've heard of grades required going down but up? Doesn't really make much sense to me:s-smilie:
