    Besides, OP doesn't seem to be on the thread any more

    Yep! Really liking it so far. It's quite different from pure but I always loved probability in Years 7/8 (S1/2 etc.).

    Are you doing AH Stats? Or just AH Maths?

    Did maths last year, doing stats this year. What I like is being able to actually work out so many of those things where you idly wonder, "what are the chances of...". Oh, and our class is testing whether people can tell the difference between coke and pepsi using hypothesis testing tomorrow! But maths still wins for me hands down.

    Haha, yeah. I love working out the chances of things happening. It's like predicting the future. We haven't done too much yet but I can't wait to get onto the more exciting stuff.

    Subject: Law
    GCSE grades: A*A*A*A*AAAAAAA
    A Level subjects: History, English Lit/Lang combined, Spanish (did Biology AS)
    Predicted grades: AAA

    Just wondering whether my GCSE grades seem good enough to be considered at Warwick? I know that of course it comes down to personal statement/references etc, but do I seem like someone who would at least be considered?
