    According to Edexcel's website they still existed before being replaced by IGCSE's in 2009.
    Lol Everyone doesn't do Edexcel you know? CIE still has O levels and some schools in certain countries still do O levels.

    O-Levels? Are you from the sixties?
    Dude. I'm an international. Don't jump to conclusions (though I do listen to songs from the 50s)!

    I know, I'm just.. familiar with Edexcel as an international exam board.

    Any international chemical engineering applicants have heard from Imperial?
    I got my chemical engineering offer this morning. I guess it may be the highest offer that imperial college has ever made. My god! 4A*

    Well, the truth is I have already obtained 3A* in core math, further math and physics and an A in chemistry. But they still ask me to obtain an A* in chemistry. I suppose they probably don"t really want to admit me.

    But I have already get an A* in chemistry in January exams.

    Well, I think I am showing off too much.......Just to express my happiness...

    I guess.. I haven't thought about the fees or any of the finances yet. I really really wanted to go to MIT so this whole time I was ignoring every other information but well that didn't happen.

    So I just donno.. I wonder if they have scholarships for international students? Plus I want to be an aerospace engineer .. I donno wtf I was thinking applying for AI.
