Ok so i’m like genuinely freaking out because I need atleast AAA to get into Edinburgh and Manchester. and i’m really scared because i kinda f’ed up my exams. does it HAVE to be exact or they let you in if you’re a grade lower than the req?
first post kinda nervous 😜😜 ok so basically, im in year 12 and i need some advise on how to pick the right university. i feel like there’s so many different things to consider and factor in and lowk a lot of unis are really similar. can anyone share how they narrowed their choices down? thx
Ok so I got into Loughborough and QMUL for comp sci. I firmed Loughborough (AAA) and insured Queen Mary (ABB)
My dilemma - I don’t know why but I thought that you could just choose to go to your insurance if you didn’t want to go to your firm choice on results day. I have since realised that is not the case. My plan was to choose Queen Mary on results day, but still firm Loughborough in case I changed my mind, and just to keep the option. Recently, though, I’ve been thinking over it and I am pretty sure I want to go to Queen Mary - it’s got good industry links and I can save money and stay at home.
I did my firm and insurance 9 days ago so I can still change, but I’m unsure if I should change. I’m not sure how changing works, like if I can choose a uni I already rejected or I just swap them.
I have visited Loughborough, and in the moment I loved it, and I still do, but I just think I want to stay at home.
If you were in my shoes, what would you do? Keep it and try my luck with clearing to keep Loughborough as an option, or just change my firm choice to QMUL now.
My choices are as follows
Sport Management
Accounting & Finance
Business, Opeartions and Supply Chain Management
International Business and Marketing
how do i write my perosnal statement???plz help
I’m feeling really lost right now because my application was marked as unsuccessful, but the university did not give me any reason for the rejection. I only applied to one university because I do not want to move away from home, and where I live, only one university offers this course. This has left me feeling stuck and unsure about what to do next, as this was the only option I had planned for. Without any explanation, it is difficult to understand what went wrong or how I can improve my chances moving forward. Also I did not use all of my 5 choices so there a point of me using those choices for a different subject or just wait to go through clearing .
Help!! I have gotten into Aberdeen, Dundee, Napier, and Cali to study a LLB.
I know Aberdeen is the best out of these but I’m not keen on moving that far away
Would it be worth going to Dundee or Napier to do an LLB because I understand it’s a fairly snobby profession and the older unis are looked upon as being better.
If anyone has done Law at Napier or Dundee have you enjoyed it?
yep, what the title said
with a PS good enough to get into imperial
Pred grades: A*A*A*A
LSE: AAA

CHOICE*
Edinburgh is def my firm choice. Honestly feel like i prolly wont even meet these requirements, idk tho.
Feb march 2026 Math was HARD. I m cooked. Studying math all the time negatively impacted my other 2 a levels so idk. Whatever
What should my insurance choice be?
I have to choose between King’s, Durham and Manchester.
is there a big gap between ucl and kcl chemistry? how is chemistry at kcl like? dreamed of going ucl but got rejected and i have kcl offer, is it worth the intl fees?
I had 43 points , one lost from core one from HL physics.
Was well over entry requirement. Why could it be? Did they offer to no one without 7 7 in math physics?
Got rejected today, they really gave me false hope with the update. 🥲 So sad…
basically what the title says idk which one to firm so if anyone care share their experience or any advice it’d be great! i’ve applied for biochemistry
After receiving rejections from LSE, KCL, St Andrews, and Edinburgh for modern history, my ego was crushed. Applying as a transfer from Cambridge* with exemplary grades, I had believed that I'd get at least 2-3 offers (if I'm being honest, I expected a full house). As you can imagine, being forced into UCAS Extra wasn't on my 2026 bingo card.
It was upon applying to Extra that I found out that universities had been making a mistake in assessing the validity of my access course. My extra choice informed me that I had a weak application due to my access course results not being QAA certified, which simply wasn't true. After appealing all of my rejections with copies of my certificates, I received an unconditional offer from my dream uni! Whilst a history degree from Cambridge would have stood me in good stead for graduate life, I believe that the opportunity to learn Mandarin alongside my History degree will equally- if not more so- help me gain an edge in this horrible job market!
* before anyone pipes up and tells me i'm making a mistake, pls know that this decision wasn't taken lightly. Unfortunately, due to the intensity of the 8 weeks terms coupled with a crippling chronic illness, I found that I was unable to thrive in this environment. Nothing against Camb, it just wasn't for me.
AFTER A UCL REJECTION COMES A UCL ACCEPTANCE. i have been through it all guys, rejected from so many but I KNEW THAT WASNT MY FATE. THANK GOD WE HAVE DONE IT WE CAN BECOME A SOLICITOR, WE CAN DO IT BC NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE AS IT IS POSSIBLE ! HOPEFULLY GONNA BAG SOME ACCOM PLS ANY UOL STUDENTS LMK WHAT TO ENSURE TO HAVE FOR MY ACCOM AND ANYONE WHO IS THINKING OF GIVING UP BC OF THE COUNTLESS REJECTIONS PLS DONT ! UCL HISTORY HERE I COME
I applied early-Oct

I applied like on October through ucas , I still haven't received anything from warwick . All the other unis have alr responded , less warwick
Fyi I applied for accounting and finance
