Applying to different physics courses at same uni?
Hey!
So I'm applying to do physics at Scottish universities, especially astrophysics, and I currently have 4 out of 5 choices. I can't really think of a fifth uni, and I've put Astrophysics as most of my course choices, but for the University of Edinburgh I also really like the Mathematical Physics course. Would it be wise to put in two applications to Edinburgh, one for Astro and one for Mathematical Physics, or is it best to just commit to one (in which case Astro as it comes up more in my personal statement)?

You can usually switch between physics degrees within the first year, but I'd check this with admissions
