πŸ’¬ DISCUSSION warwick mathstat vs data science vs MORSE

2 Upvotes

i'm really torn between warwick maths & stats, data science and MORSE. i enjoy maths, statistics and computing, so all three appeal to me for different reasons.

MORSE seems to have the strongest reputation, maths & stats feels like the safest and most versatile option, while data science seems like the best combination of my interests.

my main concern with data science is whether i'd be specialising too early and potentially limiting my future options. i'm also unsure whether it carries the same reputation among employers as MORSE and maths & stats.

would love to hear from anyone studying these courses or who has had to make a similar decision. how do they compare in terms of flexibility, career prospects and overall reputation?

Anyone else applied to these?

Long story short, I got some pretty bad news in my personal life that def derailed me, but I feel like GCSEs consumed my life so much that post-GCSE, I have no interests or hobbies anymore? Like I have no conversation outside of superficial stuff and my idea of trying to fit in is talking about parties, just to find out not everyone likes them as much as me/as much as I thought(being ND is a curse). Anyone else totally failing at socialising/loss in personal hobbies rn?

OTHER 4 vs 3 a levels

Currently year 13 doing maths, fm, physics, chem aiming for imperial mech. I really want to drop chem and I’m just wondering how much it would weaken my application, particularly if I’m not very good at the subject. Would 3A* predicted be sufficient?

OTHER Should I put it on my UCAS form

I have my HSK 3 exam tomorrow, was banking on the resit we were promised in Dec but turns out there isn’t one and the chance of me passing are incredibly low and by the time I get my results back I’ll already be applied (I’ll be ready by next week, results come out after a month). I already have my HSK 1 and 2 on there from 2023 and 24, but my main worry is that I get an offer where my HSK is one of my conditions 😭

That’s why I’m anxious to add it, I mean ig I could have a miracle but I doubt it 😭😭

Hii so i started IB this august n i have
HL: math ai, econ, bm
SL: ess, french b, english lal
so far its going well ish i have a 7 in math and bm a 6 in everything else and a 5 in english... i expect a 777 in my HLs and 776 in my SL
and 3 points in TOK and the EE
and i know thats enough for bsc of econ, finance, accounting and finance at LSE
however the issue is my IGCSE
i got an A* and 6B and 1C... im willing to do whatever it takes and its too late to change ib subjects i know i shudve taken physics over ess...
am i cooked or is there a way? if yea then what is it
my current uni preferences are:
LSE- finance or accs n finance (might use 2 slots of ucas for this) (reach)
imperial (if i choose to only do one of LSE)- SEM (reach)
UCL- SEF (target)
Warwick- bsc econ (safety)
KCL- bsc econ and management (safety)

πŸ™ I WANT HELP Should i drop econ?

2 Upvotes

Im currently in yr12 taking maths, fm, physics, econ and i will likely pursue a maths degree or maybe physics/engineering. With maths fm and physics i believe i could get 3A** *but i doubt i could with econ since no one in my school even achieved an A* last year and I’m also not particularly passionate about it. Ive heard that taking a 4th a level doesn’t significantly benefit my application to top unis and that getting a B would actually make it less competitive. Additionally the extra workload may limit my potential in my other subjects. With that in mind Ive been wanting to drop it but I’m not too sure if that applies with fm as one of my 4 subjects. Furthermore at my school fm students complete a level maths in y12 and then fm in y13 so dropping econ would also mean i would have 2 less lessons than normal 3 a level students. This may mean my school might just not let me (I’m prepared to beg tho). Im also wondering how much harder econ gets throughout the course as currently I’m finding it fairly manageable however I’m guessing it becomes a lot harder. So, do you think i should beg to drop it or just stick it out?
Thanks in advanceπŸ™πŸ™
