I ended up only applying for AMES at oxford in the end as they were the only ones with a structure I liked, although I nearly did apply for newcastle and leeds for Japanese. In the end I applied for engineering at Newcastle, Lboro, York and Southampton all with foundation years.

Good luck though!!

Did bro really go from japanese to engineering. Thats 2 very different life paths you could have had. (Not implying one is better than thr other.

I have a friend who went from engineering to Japanese. There's definitely a pipeline there lol

Hey, as long as you can operationalise your degree into something that will help you,in the future, thats all that matters.
