Default Which university did you go to/degree did you study?

Just interested because I'm currently filling out my UCAS forms at the moment, my predicted grades are BBB (even tho I got an A in sociology AS ) and I can't apply for places like Manchester/Leeds etc. because my predicted grades do not meet the criteria. Did anyone else have the same issue?

I'm hoping to study Business at one of Liverpool/Manchester/Essex. Just wondered what uni everyone else went to and what they studied so I can get some recommendations.

i'm in my second year of a history degree at the uni of leeds

it's a great uni and a great city, lots of new developments, there's a lot of money here. i'd really recommend it. if you got an a in as then they should predict you an a overall, i'd have a word with someone about that. ^^

Cant you lie for predicted grades? Like whos gonna check?

I'd apply for it if you have your heart set on it. Universitys give unconditional offers (I want you regardless), conditional offers (I want you if you get this grade in this subject) or just reject you. So you might as well put it as one of your 5 choices and hope they give you a conditional offer, and that you meet the condition later on if its your fave.

Have you had scholarships/bursaries or is it all student loan funded

Student loan covers a bachelors if you're from the UK and a masters if you're from England, so that got me through year 1-4.. I'm applying for a scholarship this year

Have no idea what I want to do anymore. Need to proper look into it these next 2 weeks since the college wants everybody to submit their personal statements in 2 weeks to be checked before we send them off.

I'm studying business management and digital media. Do NOT under any circumstances do the digital media part. I thought it would be like online branding and social media advertising but it's ****ING graphic design which I did for 4 years in school and absolutely hated every minute of. AVOID. (Unless that's your thing idk)
The business management part is actually ok and quite interesting mind, and will def be useful for careers etc
