I want to go to Brighton University to do English Literature.

Matt08 02-01-2008 03:42 PM

I would like to go to the University of Westminster as it has alot of courses in Media/Journalism.

x_mel_x 02-01-2008 04:11 PM

I had a little look on the University of Westminster's website earlier. They do many types of journalism related courses. My local universities (Worcester & Wolverhampton) only did a couple of courses. I don't go to university for another three years yet anyway. :tongue:

x_mel_x 02-01-2008 04:41 PM

Once your 15 then no doubt your school will be questioning everyone and asking what they want to do when they leave school/university etc.

Exeter University, hopefully, to study English.

Sunny_01 02-01-2008 09:19 PM

Northumbria for my DipSW

Sunderland for CertEd

I have studied at most of the NE HE & FE institutes over the years to gather a whole host of useless qualifications from D32/D33 to Level 4 advice & guidance. I love education, I am always looking for new courses to do.

Oxymoron 02-01-2008 09:44 PM

Cambridge hopefully

to study Economical Mathematics

See I'd like to come to a US University, but I only know of a few, and there the really 'higher up' ones, where you need to be really smart. And plus, I don't think they'd understand our grading system, only your GPA/SAT grades..

Lauren 02-01-2008 11:03 PM

I currently go to Lancaster University doing a science degree in Psychology.

See, we only know of Oxford and Cambridge lol. There are tons, but the ivy league schools usually get the most publicity (much like Oxford and Cambridge).

I have no clue how the grading system over there works, then. GPA/SAT is much easier to understand for me. :P

But you need really good grades for that...

Legend 04-01-2008 01:46 AM

Recently decided against Uni but if for some reason I decide to do go then I'd want to get far, far away.

LovelyL 04-01-2008 09:55 PM

Matt08 05-01-2008 01:16 AM

How many points do you usually get for your GCSE'S if you get between A*-C.

Legend 06-01-2008 12:51 AM

^^ you don't get UCAS points from your GCSE'S towards Uni as far as I know. It's all from your a-levels.

Ah ok, I had the impression that a few points came from GCSE's and the rest from A-Levels.

True, the second we went into year 10, the collage and university assemblies started. We even had a assembly with Uni people coming in and telling us why we should go to uni, was cringeworthy, them trying to talk in funny voices.
