Hey! I'm going to apply for psychology next year (2014 entry) and I'm having a lot of trouble choosing universities!
My AS results are:
Biology-A (90%)
Psychology- A (83%)
English lit-B (78%)
Chemistry-C (69% 1 UMS off a B. Getting it remarked and dropping it)
I am also looking at taking the EPQ next year
Hopefully I will end up with AABB which I'd be incredibly happy with. Especially as I had to do two modular results in biology and chemistry respectively after getting a C and an E in january. i don't know what my predicted grades will be, but I'm looking at applying to
UCL (A*AA) am I aiming too high?
Bristol (AAA)
Royal Holloway (AAA) Iin the middle of nowhere? Good for pshchobiology?
Cardiff (AAB)
Nottingham (AAB) i've heard student satisfaction isn't great
Kent (AAB)
Bangor (280-340 UCAS points) is this too safe an option?
Maybe Exeter (AAA)
I prefer the biological side of psychology which is why I'm not sure that Exeter and Kent would be the right fit for me. I have however also heard that kent has great graduate prospects. I visited Exeter on a summer school, would this aid my application?
With my AS grades and aspirations which combination of universities do you think would be the best? I'd like to avoid 5 rejections! Haha
Thanks for any replies!
