Has really hurt my head

When on the sauce last night I was talking to some mates about Uni and how they had all just received their letter after they replied last week.

REPLIED?

Argh no I'd forgotten

It's okay though, I had to the 28th April and could do it online

Phew

After the brief heart attack I dug out all the UCAS letters and thought of what I was going to do. It's a confusing thing all this.

I got 6 Unconditional replies, 4 of which were for indivdual subjects at Glasgow Uni. I couldn't actually apply directly to the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences so I had to pick the subjects that interested me. I got accepted for all subjects and received to letters from Glasgow... one from Arts and Social Sciences... however I only had intention of doing Social Sciences as more of my subjects are in there but you can cross over some subjects. So now I'd been accepted to both faculties BUT I can only accept one offer from the UCAS options... i.e only 1 subject from the 4 I picked at Glasgow.

I picked Politics, Philosophy, Sociology and Psychology (spelt wrong probably). So there are my subjects. BUT you get admitted to the faculty THEN you actually pick your subjects so I could choose other subjects later. BUT I can't accept an offer to a faculty only a subject in the faculty.

So I picked Politics... I HAD TO decline the rest.

So I hope I haven't boggered it up

My head hurts

Na I mean I don't see the point in doing a UCAS form when I'm not going to university. Even if I change my mind, you don't NEED a UCAS form to go. At 6th form they kept trying to make me fill it in. I just knocked off every tutorial so I didn't have to... then messed up my exams and only got Cs... Curse that place! I mocked UCAS and they bribed the teachers to fail me!

I sent my UCAS online form last week. I accepted English (lit) at Birmingham University for my firm choice and English Lit at Lasncaster University for my insurance choice. I now need to get AAB in my A-Levels to get on my course at Birmingham. That will be a lot of revising for me then!

Everybody keeps making fun of me doing Social Sciences

" Hur Hur... what does a Social Science graduate say? "

" D'you want fries with that "

" Shut your mouth beatch "

Anyway I have been accepted, it said so.

Now my only hope is I never messed up and can only do Politics

So glad I have a while to think about that yet.

UCAS sent me a letter with a magazine/booklet thing in it that talked about courses. It mentioned languages, arts, humanities, social sciences and mathematics, but there was no mention anywhere in the entire booklet thing (I scan-read all of it to make sure) of hard science. No mention of pure chemistry, physics or biology.

Idiots, complain about the lack of people taking pure science degrees and going into teaching, and then they don't advertise the damn things.
