Current Year 11 Thread Mark II

What about this

I'd have:



Epona.

fingers crossed for us all -

have you done any medical work exp. yet? i'm hoping to do some in the summer

I mean RULE half of Africa....It would be much easier than another trying to get a rich country Sophie's family already owned

Btw, how do you find the post count of this thread?

LOL, Sophie's actually already got one!

Well I hope so but Dr Parks at Cambridge said my A-levels aren't the most suited, but they meet the requirements. He said I'd need Further Maths to look really good, and also said I'd need A*s in the subjects that 'matter'. However, I didn't get an A* in Maths, but I did take it a year early so they may let me off. But I won't get my hopes up!

I know what you mean. As morbid as it may sound, once we're dead we won't be remembered for our grades, we'll be remember for the achievements we made during life.

I wish I had a clear subject that was my best /:

The final list

Cubic and Greenlantern sound like the Chemistry guys
Pandora,rock-and-rose and aefli are the English girls
G.KGalloway and Science-Oliver are the medicine guys/girls
Greenlantern,USB,CharlieBoardman and ELmoro are the Maths guys
c3ntury is the Computer Science guy
x-sophie-x isthe medicine/rich//engineer/ helicopter owner - pilotgirl
Multiplexing-gamer engineering guy
Greenlantern, Aefli and Multiplexing-gamer - the AS ICT guys
GameGod - the guy who completed his A-levels in year 11
Dalek - the year 10 who hangs out here

I can see the logic here. Fuel is hugely expensive in this climate, my dad fills up his car and it costs just under £100 if I remember rightly (a full refule) so to fuel a copter it's going to be expensive. Also, yeah insurance for a car is very expensive as it is, so to put a 16 year old in a copter worth 2.5 mill that could crush a building , I can see why its expensive. Lastly, as you rightly said, as your mum is teaching you, you need to buy a large plot of land as you cant just fly over London or else everyone would be crashing into St Paul's

I'd rather buy a eurofighter for 60 mil

What degree does everyone want to do? I want to do Aeronautical engineering with a year in industry at BAE...

When I spoke to Oxbridge they said I'd need further mathematics to get an 'edge' for CS, but frankly, I'm not looking for Oxbridge (I'd be content with St. Andrews, UCL or Durham), and further mathematics would prove to drive me insane most likely.



Amen to that.



I wouldn't worry about having a clear subject now, I think you find a passion at A-level and then that reflects what you do at university. At the moment you can only have brief suspicions of what you'd like to do, or what you're currently suited towards.




I'm honoured haha!

You are like really spoilt mate; i'm talking in the movies spoilt!!!!

If you have that kinda money, and it isn't even yours it is your parents hard earned money, you don't just throw it at some helicopter because it is your 'dream'.

You really need to learn some life rules.

I agree about the Oxbridge thing, even if you did get in, they obviously ask for FM for a reason, so I and you might find it incredibly hard...

Masters and in turn Ph.D in Computer Science. Doing a gap year beforehand in Asia.

Btw, how do you find the post count of this thread?

Hmm, well I don't see why. My parents wanted me to use it on flying, which is why they suggested it for my 16th birthday.

And since it's my mum who taught me to fly, I really enjoy it and this is how I choose to spend my free time. I don't see what's wrong with that.

This means you'll finish 3/4 years later than everyone else. What inspires you to go onto PHD, I myself would rather go into work get experience and earn money along the way...

I'll be one year older than my peers (never a bad thing), more life experience, 'ready' mentally for university, and I'll have everything I've learnt whilst abroad (languages and programming whilst I'm travelling). I'll also have the CV additions (volunteering and such).

The reason I'd like to do a Ph.D is so I can contribute to the subject field I have a passion for. Plus, a lot of the high end jobs can be scaled to quickly (within 5 or so years) with a Ph.D in CS, and in addition, loads of people are doing CS nowadays (sadly perhaps?), so having that extra qualification will make me stand out.

Oh, and I'd ideally like to go into R&D when I'm older, so I'll need it for that probably?
