I firmed my conditional offer to go to UoS quite a bit ago to study psychology, and as i'm procrastinating my revision intensely I thought why not ask on here who else is looking to go, has had an offer or has firmed and just kinda talk about what it was about the uni that intrigued you, and what course your going to do/looking to do

Hi!
I also have an offer from southampton for psychology
Im planning on firming, I just want to get my last UCAS reply back.
Honestly, southampton wasn't my first choice, but i got rejected from that and southampton actually ranks higher so i guess it wasn't a real loss. I like the course and the option to do a minor discipline, and the campus seems really nice too!

Nottingham rejected me for Psychology with cognitive neuroscience
I did really like the course and campus there too, it was also closer to home (I live in the west midlands)
But I totally agree, I'm going to an offer holders day in march so I'm sure after I've been and seen it in person I'm going to fall in love with it. I've only heard good things about it so far, so I'm definitely excited.
I'm really interested in biopsychology and psychopathology. More particularly I'm hoping to work in clinical neuropsychology one day
How about you?

initially I was very interested in therapies, cliche I know lol. although im a lot more interested in the neuroscience aspect of mental health and would rather look at developing therapies etc rather than delivering them.

Hey guys I've got an offer for civil engineering and honestly I really love the idea of going to Southampton - I'm quite sporty but I also like getting involved in a lot of creative stuff and of course academia so Southampton caters to this all and it very much seems like it will give a very good university experience!

That's great! I've heard good things about Southampton's involvement in therapies, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy (they have quite a few specialists in that department). I'm sure the offers holders day is going to give a lot more insight into those kind of things

Psychology, business and economics, I know its a weird mix for someone going to do psychology lol. hopefully it all go to plan just a lot of hard work I guess, and fighting through an astronomical amount of procrastination but we'll get there in the end!!

At least we take psychology. I know hard sciences are more 'traditional' , but i can imagine I would have really struggled to balance a subject like biology with psychology.
It's definitely a lot of hard work, but Its totally going to be worth it!! We'll be fine

I take Psychology, English Literature and sociology! I wish I had known what I was getting myself into by choosing three essay based subjects
but I do really enjoy the combination.

Yeah as much as I think do I regret not taking something like biology, im not necessarily annoyed because if I didn't I probably wouldn't be firming Southampton because I would confidently say i'm much better at essays than I am the science type of question answering. And ultimately a level is basically just playing to your strengths.
