But, I'd get to be called 'Dr Allan', and go into the field I want, which is quite cool
Do you know what field you're interested in?
I'd love to do a PhD if I end up studying History, but not if I end up doing English. That's assuming I don't decide to do something to do with boats after my degree... () and I'm, still interested in teaching English abroad after I've graduated! God, it's refreshing to have an open mind!
I think Aeronautical is more rewarding financially and is more interesting but the competition is IMMENSE at the Uni's I want to apply to. With Mechanical I think I'd have more of a chance
Really? What Uni's are you looking at, cus' Engineering overall shouldn't be as competitive as things like Medicine or Economics.
I'm looking at Louborough, Bham or Manchester with a year in industry. Are you doing F.Maths?
I do too at Hollister but I'm guessing I'm going to have to give that up shortly and get a job volunteering or something to keep my options open regarding medicine.
I'm doing maths, physics and chemistry at college, with no idea of what I want to do in the future. Is it worth doing work experience seeing as I don't know what I want to work as?

Quantum Computation or perhaps Abstraction Theory. Something cutting-edge though ideally
And what's happened to your hopes and dreams of Archaeology?!
Good to see you're still abroad to go abroad, I'm hoping to spend part of my gap year in Korea teaching English

i volunteer at beaver scouts, and am an explorer scout myself. i also am in the process of joining the st.johns ambulance.
hope to get a week at hospital this summer along with a week at a primary school (have already done 2 weeks). i want to go into paediatrics (Hence the kid stuff)
or become a brain surgeon (least likely option lol)
So on moderation day, do you think my Art exam will get marked? Sorry for bothering everyone, Im just getting freaked out. I want to get a C or above in that subject as it's my favourite and it's also my top choice at college. For the Art exam, my painting is worth 25% and my sketchbook is worth 75%. I really don't want to fail.
I'm pretty sure everyones will be moderated, not like some subjects, where only a sample of everyones work is.
im a 'medic hopeful' aiming for 7A*'s and 3A's, I've got volunteering and work experience lined up, doing bio, chem, phys, maths for a level and hoping to get into oxford
Wow, you sound so organised, i'm doing the same Alevels apart from switching Maths for Geography (contraversial i know)! Tbh, i'm not worrying about the uni in particular, i'll go anywhere who wants me!
elderly people homes mainly zero replies - thought it was actually quite rude to not even acknowledge my interest i do volunteering but i hope to get some hospital work exp soon
Yea, a lot of people don't bother to reply! I'd rather them reply with just a "no" as atleast i know they've seen and acknowledged it... Hospital work experience this early on will be great for your application i'm sure!

I'd say that work experience might actually help you discover something that you'd adore to do for your career. :P

Helloooo (sorry- just discovered the list of smilies!)

If you invent a new groundbreaking product, please let me have one for free instead of forking out hundreds of pounds for it!
I just realised how much I loved History, so I'm not going to settle for anything less just because I didn't achieve an A* at GCSE level.
Korea hmm? North or South? Nah, I kid. I know it's far in the future, but you should really consider creating a blog about your gap year when it comes. I'd love to see the pictures!

I did a week at my primary school for work experience because I was too slow taking up other jobs and such ......But now I can see that it may be useful should I wish to become a paediatrician

If you like boats so much, why not do Engineering?

Sure!
That's brilliant to hear, what kind of career are you hoping to go into then? Teaching?
