If I really had to choose a subject other than English literature, it would probably be French, but I wouldn't change. Plus I'm not good enough at French to study it at university level.

Not a big change, but from Mech Eng to Robotics.

.ACS.

If I were forced to change... probably from Economics to Law.

Tough question... Possibly econometrics, though?

Politics and American Studies to Classics. I took Latin and Classical Civilisation for A Level and miss them both.

I would change from Medicine to Archaeology and Ancient History. Maybe with some Latin and ab initio Greek thrown in.

Change from Business to either Law, Primary Teaching or Philosophy lol.

I was actually meant to be studying Social Anthropology this year but changed my mind last September and did a last minute swap to Business :wink:

Possibly Classics, it looks really interesting but I am happy to do an English degree. :smile:

I bet you didn't know this, but once you graduate with your geography degree, you could still do medicine.

At Warwick we have a graduate from geography in my year. Also Warwick don't take into consideration your A levels subects or grades. As long as you got a 2:1 or first in your geography degree, then you satisfy the criteria for the graduate entry medicine course at Warwick :smile:

Just some food for thought, if you still fancy doing it when you graduate :smile:

PM me if you want to know anything.

I would have done something like geography/geology instead of Art History, I wouldn't have changed AH for anything though :smile:

Id do medicine instead of chemistry. While I love chemistry, medicine was the thing I always wanted to do :P. Alas I cant afford to do it as a postgrad :frown:
