Uni/ Apprenticeships after SF??

2000amber1

Hi guys, I'm really struggling with thinking about my next steps after SF because of my grades as I take Maths FM Econ and Physics (predicted A* Physics A maths A FM A* Econ from GCSEs alone) but my GCSE grades were rubbish considering I might want to study engineering/econ at a Russell so I don't know if I should just rule uni/ apprenticeships out completely. The application process stresses me out for uni and apprenticeships because everyone on here is an actual genius and it just makes me feel so inadequate and I actually don't know what to do to even compete against applicants.

Your indecision about what to study is more of a concern than your GCSEs.

There’s a huge difference between engineering and economics.

Have you been to any open days? If not get booked in. Try to go to nearby universities open days even if you aren’t planning to go there (it will help you get the most out of visits to other universities if you have something to compare against) and then also book into a few further afield.
