Hello all!
I've been chipping away at my personal statement, which is going well, and working hard to achieve my predicted grades of Biology, Psychology, and Sociology with ABB respectively.
However, the daunting question that I've left up until now is what University I want to go to, let alone if I even want to go to University.
I hate the idea of being so far away from my home, so initially I looked for Universities near the London area, as I love South East, but they seem to have really high grade requirements. I can perhaps scrounge an AAB, but I don't want to put myself to an unachievable level.
Courses such as Cognitive Neuroscience and Psychology at Manchester, or Nottingham Trent's Educational and Development Psychology really interest me, as I'd like to become a therapist when I'm older, but I'm not sure if these courses or Uni's will allow me to get a job??
I feel like the idea of accommodation scares me, as in I don't like the idea of a shared toilet, showers, and kitchen. I'm a very clean person, and the thought of putting my washing in shared washing machines for an exorbitant price don't make me feel good.
I'd love to have some insight from Undergraduates and University students alike, and to at least get a start on my applications and choices. Thank you for reading the post up until now, and can't wait to read your replies!
