... any one else finished? or heading that way? or fed up of all the pressure around UCAS?
I Ended up applying for Cardiff, Liverpool, Bath and Oxford Brookes for Architecture.
I think that the whoel process is too complicated for my small brain.
I dont want to grow up >.< and uni is scary, but i got to use my card to pay for the form so i feel all grown up! :P
....yeah, slightly random thread, but im board. :P

damn you!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am not going through UCAS doing seperate applications boo
But I havent even started my personal statement :unsure:
tis not good is it.
You're entirely bonkers. But I'll tell you a secret. All the best people are.
"Be nice. Think happy thoughts. Champion silver linings. Love all things (not just cute things like babies and kittens) & when you do love - love like they do in power ballads (you know like on a cliff with the wind in your hair and your eyes shut, knowing you'll never know love like this). Watch out for dog poo. Smile at people - even grumpy ones. Remember anything is possible & whatever you do always try to look on the bright side."
Well done and good luck. You can do mine if you like Liz? ;]
Miss Taylor-John keeps trying to get me to write "in the-box". By that she means as the admissions tutor wants me to on my personal statement, not as extreme as me lol
And UCAS keeps logging me out or going haywire, i also need to finish looking up universities. So far i'm contemplating Carmarthen Trinity, UWIC, Sheffield Hallam, and i need to look up some others which would accept me (who'd want me? o.0 lol). Heh, psychology with my failures also called grades is not easy to get into. (:
P.S.
If you want a laugh Liz, then i may have to rely on the Welsh Baccalaureate to get into somewhere good, and theoretically Carmarthen would accept me with just the WBQ :-P lmao
my mum keeps calling it 'UCA' (said ucca)
and when i tell her some o fthe things that are different, liek the fact uni's cant see what other uni's your going to, and your proirities, her face is a picture. and she says things like '...really? wow. it wasnt liek that when i did it! are you sure?' bareign in mind i've todl ehr the same thing several times, becuase she keeps forgetting >.<
Personal statements ar ea nightmare, so best get the over with quickly.
my teachers wernt exactly helpful. all they seemd to do was tlel me off (th ebiggest example beign me only wanting to apply to one uni. i only applied to the other three to shut them up, though im startign to warm to the idea of goign somewhere else jsut to get out the house)

then again, cardiff is the best in britain for architecture, one of the hardes to get into, and it said i twoudl accept AA and a pass in WBQ, so i shoudl shut up!

And my parent don't know anything about uni or UCAS, WBQ, etc. Still doesn't stop them trying to force their apparently 'better' opinions on me. They think i should drop school and get a proper job as obviously my deteriorating mental health is because of school and me not been able to cope. Heh, they amuse me, i'm listening to them now, unfortunately i'm tied downstairs with them if i want to use the internet >.<
And the WBQ is actually a good little booster, as much as i hate it, resist it, generally let the teachers know what i think of it and have my delight listening to Grif's talks of it ;] lol

Psychology is really good at my uni - Gloucestershire. I have loads of friends doing it and they love it.
Also the grades aren't too high which is good because I'd have never have done it otherwise.
If you need any info just PM me, I know lots as I'm in my second year now :)
