Hi, I will be applying to study Accounting and Finance at Liverpool, UEA and Portsmouth. My predicted grades are AAB in Economics, Business and Accounting. My first choice is Liverpool (with its 12 ICAEW exemptions) but I cannot decide between UEA and Portsmouth. UEA is higher ranked than Portsmouth but doesn't have a placement year. Am I better off picking Portsmouth as my insurance choice?

I'd say wait until you get decisions back first. If any one of them turns you down then your decisions become easier. In the mean time, have a good research between now and then about the courses, the module descriptions etc and see what is most exciting to you.
My friend wants to know will he be disadvntaged for doing A level Physics Maths and Business. He chose business instead of economics due to timetabling. He wants to apply next year for Southampton,Birmingham,Surrey will he be okay or should he do AS further maths or try get work experience

Portsmouth probably doesn't good employer links compared to UCL. It also depends on where you live so you can get a job straight after.

Not at all. I'm doing biology and chemistry to keep my options open.

Thanks Beast 990 although I assume you meant UOL (Liverpool) instead of UCL! I take it you too agree with the order of preference: 1. Liverpool 2. UEA 3. Portsmouth

Hi I intend on studying Accounting and Finance and am applying for Bradford, Leeds and Huddersfield. I currently do Biology, Chemistry, Psychology and Core Maths and I am predicted AAAA, but I don't think I will get it. I am really conflicted between going to uni or taking the AAT course. Everyone I have spoken to has given me contradictory ideas. Whats your opinions????
