EPQ

Hi, I am planning to do an EPQ, and am planning to do finance/finance + econ at uni. Does my epq need to be related to this or can it be on anything that i would like. Or do unis only consider if it related or do they only look at the grade from it?

Hello @nick76,

I study at the University of Southampton, and I believe that when I applied to psychology, they reduced the entry requirements by one grade as long as you receive a grade A in the EPQ no matter what subject it was on. However, this may have changed and is likely to depend on the course and university, so it may be worth checking with the admissions teams at the universities you are applying to.
