    A quick to the hopefuls here. If you were given the chance, what will you like to specialise in?

    Me, It will be general paediatrics, or Neuro-paediatrics

    Work hard at S1. It's quite difficult to get your head around at first but if you work at it, I'm sure you'll be fine.

    It depends on were you apply, as some may want minimum 7c or b. If you get AAA then that is a good chance of getting an offer.
    Also, are doing 4th AS? It is also most recommend as most place ask for it. Other than General studies or Critical thinking

    I'm taking on a AS next year; something not too demanding and really engjoyable - philosophy. good choice? or should I take english lit, which I also like a lot but I don't think I have time to read and write essays.. not with doing maths,chem, and bio too and what is basic requirement for GCSEs?

    I know you need atleast B in english language, that I have and I'm not worried about my a level grades I'm well aware I need atleast all As, even better all A* that little extra for not having 8 As at GCSE (that probably most applicant will have :/)

    C1 and C2 is just as equally as important as S1 if you get A in C1 and C2 but a D in S1 you would probably get a C/B overall As level and vice versa if you got A in C1 + S1....
