Awhh..I know how it is. I was desperate to go to Berkeley this year instead of staying for my last year...but no one was keen on letting me...

I'm applying for History, University College :smile:

(yes..I got dragged in by the castle (since AP Art History class last year!!!). Perhaps I should investigate the other colleges...)

With those grades, I'm sure you will. :smile:


Thanks :smile: Durham is just such a lovely place - nowhere else quite matches up to it for me.
I'm applying for Natural Sciences at Josephine Butler college :smile:
Good to see another Natural Science person :smile:, which subjects you taking within nat sci?

Law/Hatfield - the Castle looked nice but with 14 times as many applicants as places I thought its best not to get my hopes up!

If I don't get into Durham I think I might cry - my heart is set on it.


I think you shouldn't worry about that 14 times as many blablaba statistics because it IS the department who chooses you after all and though you might be sent to an other college than your original preference one if you really want to go to Castle then why don't you just apply there?:wink:
You might be as well "sent away" from Hatfield...
+ the reason why Castle has this horrifying statistics is that most people only know about that college (oldest university building in use,most famous etc.etc.) and they don't bother about making some research before applying:smile:

I'm not sure yet but on my UCAS form where you have to put up to 4 subjects you want to study, I've got Physics, Maths, Psychology and Biology, but I'll probably change my mind before then!

How about you?
Chemistry, Maths and Economics :smile: Again I may change my mind though
