Econ at Warwick or Econ and Business with EES at UCL?

Hello, I've received all my responses on UCAS - four offers (Economics at Warwick, Nottingham, Exeter and Economics and Business with East European Studies at UCL) and one rejection (Economics at LSE). Exeter has the lowest conditions - 8.5/10 at the Romanian Baccalaureate, so it'll definitely be my insurance choice. I'm trying to figure...

How competitive is economics at Warwick?

Obviously, as it is one of the UK's leading universities for economics, it's reasonable to assume that the general academic standard of applicants is vey high at Warwick. So my question is this: 'Where would I stand, with A-level Maths, Further Maths, Economics and Business Studies (a poor selection, I know) in terms of my likely hood of...

UCL ESPS vs Warwick PPE

Hi all, I have offers to study ESPS at UCL (may choose full economic spec.) and PPE at Warwick.

Durham Uni College Procedure

I am applying for Economics at Durham and looking at University College. One reason is because it is fairly close to the economics department. However I know this college is usually oversubscribed and therefore I may be rejected and given an offer at another college. Would I have a say in this college choice? I am not too bothered about w...

Politics at Warwick. What's it like?

I would like to ask for opinion about Politics L200 at Warwick. What do you feel about studying politics at Warwick in general (I am still reluctant between Warwick and Durham though)?

Exeter or Durham???

Hi guys, so I just got similar offers from Exeter (Business Finance) and Exeter, Queen's Campus (Economics and Finance with Industrial Experience), but it's so hard to choose! My first choice is Exeter, but at the same time, the prestige of Durham is quite a big factor as well. These are the things which I REALLY like about Exeter compare...

Which university for insurance?

OK, so I’m brand new here, but I’m really stuck on what university to put as my insurance. My firm will be Cambridge, and my choice of insurance is between Warwick, Bristol, Durham (University College), and Bath.

(Physics) UCL vs Durham vs Warwick vs Nottingham

I'm seriously dying here. All of these unis look like they have great physics courses and it is so hard to decide between them. Durham looks to be both cheap and well renowned but it is very far north (I'm from Essex) whereas UCL looks to have great social and employment opportunities but it is expensive. If anyone has any information to...

Chances of getting in to uni despite missing grades?

Hey everyone, I'd like to know if any of you know what the chances are of getting into your uni choice without making the grades. I've got offers from Durham, Southampton and Warwick at A*AA, A*AA and AAB respectively for engineering, but i think it's unlikely i'll get an A* at all.

Sixth Form OCR Economics F583 Revision Notes

Just some revision notes I made to concise the first two chapters of the F583 module. These are not meant as a substitute for the textbook, but more as a quick revision recap nearer the exam period. They're very...different to most notes but they worked very well for me! If you don't understand anything, feel free to message me! The order...

Which offers do I accept?

Hey all, I'm in the very fortunate (and lucky) position to have gotten all 5 of my offers back.

But now I'm really unsure which of my offers to accept. I have offers from: Warwick, Durh...

Hi, I'm very confused as to where I should go to university - I can't seem to decide which one to firm between Warwick and Kings since they both have given me the same offer.

I 've received conditional offers for MPharmacy, from both Durham and Brighton. Obviously Durham Uni is quite prestigious, and I had my heart set on studying there. But my parents have created a hugggeeee fuss over Durham, saying that it's too far (I'm from Wales). Secondly, my father seems to think that accommodation prices will be highe...

What are the chances of getting accepted by UCL or LSE or Warwick with a mid-to high 2:1 in Economics? I'm enquiring on behalf of my boyfriend who is interested in corporate banking and the financial sector in general.

Hi guys, I'm currently an undergraduate Physics student in Imperial College London, but I am planning to pursue a Masters in Economics after I graduate.

Sixth form Economics Further Reading

Hi, I have never learned economics before, but I am very eager to learn it. As I was young, I liked to play around with numbers, but my affection towards social sciences (especially history) grew as I grew up, and economics was a course that entertained both my desire towards numbers and societal problems. I am in the Year 11, and since o...

Should I go to Sheffield or Warwick for biomed?!?

I am choosing between Sheffield and Warwick and massively stuck.

Would it be crazy to go to Queen's Belfast over Durham for a master's?

I have offers from both but my girlfriend just got into Queen's for dentistry so will be there for 5 years. I live in England so obviously it will be long-distance. Also, the fees for Belfast are £2000 less. The course content is the same - I have no preference. However, I think Durham is a nicer city and can imagine myself fitting in mor...

Should I do economics or geography at A-level?

I will be commencing A-levels in September and I chose to do French, politics, English language and economics. However due to a clerical error when inputting the student's choices, instead of economics I was put down to do philosophy and ethics. This has caused my actual choices to clash, meaning I can not study economics. I think that if...
