    Ensure you apply at the right university - certainly not Birmingham/Oxbridge. You also need to get those A-level grades and Work Experience.

    OT: Trolls come out this time of year and post fake results, don't be put off.

    ever since i was 1 year old it has been my life long dream to work in a big investment bank and do some investment banking, maybe i'll work for the UN on saturdays for a bit of extra, and as a surgeon on sundays. this is the bare minimum i expect from my future career

    now i just can't go on. i only got 14 A*s and an A. i'm so depressed i can't go on. i might not get into oxford, or god forbid even into some lesser uni like warwick. im going to be a failure for the rest of my life

    10A*'s, 1A... A-level: 4 A's... Thing is. Life isn't all about results. You can have a gazillion A*'s, and still not get into medicine (I want to do medicine btw), due to some random issue. Make sure to remember of the whole picture, not just results. Results get you sorted from the rest of the pack which apply to your course as well. But in the current climate of GCSE's and A-levels getting easier, you must have something apart from grades to set you apart from the crowd, because they will have the same results as you.

    Concerning medicine:
    - Ace the UKCAT/BMAT
    - Get some work shadowing/volunteering
    - Read up on basic medical knowledge
    - Write a good personal statement (TSR will help you with this)
    - Do some prep for the interview, but not too much.

    5A*s and 5As at IGCSE - I'm not sure how IGCSEs compare to GCSEs, they're suppose to prepare you better for A-level and anyway; well done to everyone and goodluck for those wishing to do medicine... I have no idea what I want to do yet. :/ xxxx

    11A*s, 1A (which the whole year is getting remarked - AQA Drama), an A in FSMQ Additional Maths and an A in my French AS-Speaking.

    Why so many negs?

    I'm still getting negs ONE YEAR LATER?

    Best not add that I got 6As at AS...!
