Who's applying for uni this year? What are you applying for and what unis?
My ucas guy at school is a **** and won't look at our drafts, massive ******. I wanna do Psychology, hopefully at Sheffield or Sussex.
How have your personal statements gone?

Sorting my UCAS stuff out this week too, gunna send it next week so that Unis don't think I was applying to Oxford or Cambridge and reject me lololol.
So far I have:
University of Derby - Computer Networks
University of Hertfordshire - Computer Science
The University of Nottingham - Computer Science (Foundation)
Not in order and I still need to find two more :(
Thanks. Yeah I know, some had finished in September and that. But half the people on there are Oxbridge/med/law students anyways.Quote:

My problem is I didn't take a science or maths but still want to do Computer Science :rolleyes: :(
Yeah I wish I had chose other subjects, but I'll be happy providing I get an offer from either Sheffield or Sussex.
Same here but I've visited 4 out of 5 of those unis and none need maths or science which was my main worry. I just emphasised my existing programming knowledge etc in my personal statementQuote:

Yeah but there's quite a few module options on that, particularly at Lancaster and Staffordshire. Lancasters in the top 10 in the league tables and only requires BBB. Of course league tables generally mean nothing anyway, and Staffordshire has a well respected computing department and most of their courses are accredited by BCS, IMIS and Cisco (it's also a Cisco academy)Quote:

I'm applying for Mathematics
I'm applying to:
Cambridge
Durham
Warwick
Nottingham
Exeter
my application has been submitted and I have received the SAQ from Cambridge.
I just finished my gap year but I never did get that epiphany and am still very undecided on what I want to do in the future, but uni is kind of essential to all of my options so I guess I better start looking into it again! I didn't realise people started applying so early, when I was in college we had barely started preparation by this time.
Some people have already got offers! :PQuote:

There was a sign on the door of my college careers department yesterday which said all completed forms have been sent to UCAS, but mine hasn't :(
That's exactly what I want to do ;O! Maths @ Cambridge lol. But I'm not applying until 2013 so it's ok xD!Quote:
