International Relations Uni

I am a gap year student and applied for IR with AAB. I have gotten 4 offers so far:
-Leeds
-Manchester
-York
-Brighton (Safety)

What sucks is that the B grade, I was 4 marks away from an A.

I am waiting on Kings to reply. My top two are Kings and Leeds (Ideally I want to go Kings but if they reject me which hopefully they won't I want to go to Leeds). I was wondering if anyone has studied IR at Kings or Leeds and could tell me what it's like. If any Leeds people are here what is Leeds like, I've never been I live in London hence why Kings is also a more favourable option.

(Also has anyone heard back from Kings for IR)

Congratulations to your offers.

The core modules of the unis are similar, and they have different foci on electives. Maybe you could see which uni's modules fascinate you more.
