The more popular the subject is, the higher the entry grades. One University could have really high entry grades, but that doesn't mean it's taught better, it means that it's more popular.<br><br>EmmahLarah: Ahh good luck! :) xLouisehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02433951023108721314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832722088400577032.post-79163747695795640622010-09-06T17:09:58.910-07:002010-09-06T17:09:58.910-07:00*handful of students from my school lol. not in th...*handful of students from my school lol. not in the country (althought that would be amazing!)EmmahLaurahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06912527402848265779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832722088400577032.post-73966077610623876742010-09-06T17:08:55.322-07:002010-09-06T17:08:55.322-07:00haha!

I'm so scared, I leave for uni on the 25th. it's really strange cause I knew if I'd got a place at my uni before I knew my results :P and I got a D on one of my A2s but retook it and got a B soo :P stupid silly teachers don't know jack! also, don't be too scared about how it says on the news that uni choices are getting tougher and you have to meet your exact grades... my friend missed a grade and still got accepted, and I don't think there were more than a handful of students who didn't go where they wanted to :)<br><br>hope this helps xEmmahLaurahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06912527402848265779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832722088400577032.post-86025948885322073732010-09-06T16:01:34.111-07:002010-09-06T16:01:34.111-07:00Oh, hey!

I don't know how it works in the uk, but in my country, when you went to a highschool/uni, let's say, that was specialised in something particular, like Maths (don't know why I picked this one), you'd know that the other classes that didn't relate to maths or physics etc were real bad. So I don't know if it's the case in here, but the English Media you'd wanna pick at an Arts uni might be a bit poorly taught and you'd have no competition in your class, so might get a bit lazy and if you wanna have a job in this area you might be disappointed. Sorry if the comment may seem stupid to you :D, it could be baring in mind the differences of education between countries. Anyways, you should get the ambition to prove your teacher wrong and laugh in her face. Good luck!!birminghamladyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01263507283309756303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832722088400577032.post-12534393724443834032010-09-06T15:57:18.410-07:002010-09-06T15:57:18.410-07:00Probably :/ because I don't think I'd get ...Probably :/ because I don't think I'd get a room as I live so close but I was considering living somewhere just outside the campus, I'm not sure yet. I remember when I lived in Bere Alston, there were two old twin ladies who had beards haha good times.

I really loved it too, especially because of how close to everything it is and all their IT facilities and everything. Would you live at home if you went there then? xxLaurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15048915608031043183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832722088400577032.post-47767121353005452242010-09-06T15:47:05.407-07:002010-09-06T15:47:05.407-07:00I used to live in Bere Alston! & I live in Ply...I used to live in Bere Alston! & I live in Plymouth!

Plymouth is pretty much my first choice I think but I'm reluctant to put too much hope onto it in case I don't get an offer!
