Crikey - you have got a lot of problems haven't you?!
Have you looked at some of the help guides about how to apply, perhaps in your local public library or college/school library? Each university course has a code so you need to go through them with care so you apply for an appropriate course.
Could you ask a teacher/college lecturer to help?
When you havbe written a rough draft of your application it could be useful to get someone good at grammar, punctuation etc. to go through it with you. Good luck ~RJS

I'm a third year History student. On my course there a number of students who either started the full sociology course or took it as a major and later regretted it and transferred on to the full history degree course.
You can obtain a code from the university that you are hoping to attend for your UCAS application, this will tell them what you are majoring in one for example the code at UCLan is LVH1 BA/SocH, it will probably be the same at the one you are applying to.

you will take the combined Hons and then in the second year the university will arrange what you want to major in... the first year is just getting you settled in so you could apply for anything within reason and change your mind in the 2nd year, like you wil do history and sociology and then decide, as you will have a better understanding of each to make an informed decision. Normally what you do in the first year does not count towards your final mark you will of course have to pass the first year too continue... hope I have not confused you.... Best of luck

In the first year you will apply to do a combined honours degree so look for courses called sociology with history and apply for those. In the second year you will specify which course you want to major in. Hope that helps.

no longer all universities do. you're able to do the two, it basically relies upon on how many colleges you're using to. as an occasion, in case you're using to six colleges that each and every person take the conventional app, then use it. in case you're using to 3 colleges and basically 2 settle for it, then you certainly could use the conventional app for the two and fill out the college app for the only, or basically fill them out one after the different. extremely, uncertain the place the conventional app is located because of the fact it is been see you later on account that i've got used it.. with a bit of luck this helped you slightly in spite of the undeniable fact that.

You dont need to worry about that until your second year, there is no section on your UCAS from to state your major unless it has change since I did mine which i doubt

go to the UCAS site and find out what the code is for the course you want.
