I'm also looking at Universities I might apply to when I've finished my A levels. I'm looking to study English, I've not decided whether I want it as a single or combined course at the moment. I'll undoubtedly finish that up with a years teacher training course, assuming I can't find a course that incorporates it. Scotland is looking tempting, as A Levels are liked quite a bit over there, and you're allowed to skip the first year of the course over there with them (they work on a 4 year system where the first year is kinda like trying the courses out). Also my boyfriend informs me there may be a way to get in for free and use my uni time as guaranteed residency, he's gonna look into this more though. Current considerations I've had for Uni's are Aberystwyth and Oxford. Aber I'm more uncertain about than I was, and Oxford you need to be very good for. Could be an issue...
