Dd17 is very bright, predicted 10 A/A grades at GCSE and insists on the above degree. Her first choice is Exeter where the grade requirements are AAA, which is on par (or higher!) than medicine. In my heart it sounds slightly media studies, but don't know of anyone who has done it rather than Sport s Science (some unis combine them). I am not in favour of a degree for the sake of it as the dc will have to be heavily subsidised funded by us for living costs. My physio did Sport Science and said he was told by careers officer that it would open so many doors but it was merely a stepping stone degree and I read ES will be the same.
AIBU to be wary of this course?
