hiya! ive applied for this course. im kinda worried about recieving offers due to my firm being AAB and my predicted being A*BB but yes!
Double check whether courses are accredited with the BPS or not. There will be a material difference in how much psychology you have to do otherwise. And certain professions within the psychology field will be less open to you if your course isn't BPS accredited.

Okay perfect! What about university of Warwick, psychology with education course - do you think it’s worth applying there as well? I mean they require AAB if I don’t study a science subject as well as a 6 or higher in GCSE science (I got 55 combined science).
