I know some universities accept you if you get below their offer but its too much of a hassle.
So I've decided to go with Staffordshire (240) and Buckinghamshire (200). I've been wondering why I haven't confirmed my choices to UCAS when I got them all a week ago and I realised today that I'd rather not stress too much over A levels for the sake of 260 points. Plus everybody says Preston (UCLAN) is a horrible place to live. None of that probably doesn't make sense to you lot but it does to me.
I'm going to talk to my tutor tomorrow and then confirm after that.
Surprisingly my mum wasn't too bothered about me changing my mind about UCLAN when it was my first choice and the place I really wanted to go to. She's more bothered about the pollution she'll create when she comes to visit me as Bucks is three hours away :confused:
I'm waffling now, I'm happy and excited :D:D
