Re: GCSE Students - What subjects will you take for A-Levels?I'm doing the exact same(Original post by bambi_eyes)
I'm almost definitely doing:
Biology, Chemistry, Maths and English Literature
Scared about Chemistry because according to TSR OCR B Salters is evil

Re: GCSE Students - What subjects will you take for A-Levels?I thought you already had an unconditional offer from ICL.(Original post by GMD)
I dislike being grouped with people who imo are average. If I apply to cambridge, and they have some folks flicking through applications with boredom: "4 a levels, 4 a levels, 4 a levels...yawn...oh a 5 a level guy...4 a levels...4 a levels...OH SNAP 6? With 2 already completed? with A* in both? gogogogo get this guy
Isn't that what you made up in another thread?

Re: GCSE Students - What subjects will you take for A-Levels?You are stupid. Go check the admissions for Cambridge. Having so many A-Levels does not give you an advantage unless you have like 23 like that Pakistani guy. Cambridge also looks at UMS so if you have say 85% average in 6 and another person has 90+ % in 3-5 A-Levels then they will be picked over you. Take 5 max in my opinion.(Original post by GMD)

Re: GCSE Students - What subjects will you take for A-Levels?Physics, Maths, Further Maths and Chemistry... There seem to be an aweful lot of people on here doing further maths... I had got the impression it was one of the more unpopular subjects

Re: GCSE Students - What subjects will you take for A-Levels?You're saying that to someone who supposedly got an unconditional offer to read Mathematics at Imperial College London at the age of fifteen. Just thought I'd say.(Original post by gravitationalpull)

Re: GCSE Students - What subjects will you take for A-Levels?TSR generally has a smarter population than average. Well that's what the grades people are expecting show. Overall, not many people take it however the number of students are increasing. You are doing the same combination as me(Original post by Riemann_1/n^s)

Re: GCSE Students - What subjects will you take for A-Levels?Oh well, he didn't deserve to go if he thinks that more than 4 A-Levels will give him any sort of 'advantage'. I personally am doing 5 but not because I want Oxbridge to go 'OMG' that guy is awesome. I'm doing Maths, FMaths, Physics, Chemistry and Economics so I have an option to go into Finance or Physics. This guy just seems to be boasting. I advise him not to because a robot and study 6 A-Levels; it will leave you no time for work placements, extra curriculars and more that will help build your character. Oxbridge does not want working robots; we are working on artificial intelligence for a reason.(Original post by und)

But I'll probably cut down to 4 for A2 and do the EPQ as well

Re: GCSE Students - What subjects will you take for A-Levels?No one is jealous Mr. Arrogant. Why don't you provide us with some evidence? Scan the acceptance letter or something and post it here. Word of mouth doesn't help really.(Original post by GMD)
Don't be jealous. Although I suppose haters gonna hate.
