Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Physics, Geography or Economics Clearing

Which course is easiest to get/most often in clearing?

Stuck between applying to all three subjects, so I am thinking on applying to the subject which is hardest to get in clearing, so if I change my mind, my options are still relatively open.

Thank you!

Geography in my view. Physics and Economics are very competitive at top unis.

I second this. Often there are loads of spaces for geography courses but it is true, physics and economics generally have lots more applicants and are more competitive.

Nobody can tell you. It changes every year but the likelyhood is there will be courses available for all 3 subjects and it depends where you are looking at. Generally Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, LSE, Durham, UCL and St Andrews are not in clearing for UK applicants and some other universities wont have spaces for every subject eg Physics at Manchester, Economics at Warwick.
