5 conditional offers, can't get any of their grades...

If you're counting all your offers as rejections you might as well opt for UCAS extra when it opens. You should maybe aim slightly lower to more middle ranking universities such as Salford or hull which ask for 260 and 280 ucas points respectively.

1. M1 is not the be all and end all of Physics, I dislike Mechanics but love the other areas. I want to specialise in another area of Physics...
2. I am staying in London for uni, and there are limited choices. 3 of my unis also have a minimum entry of ABB which I can achieve and it's quite close to BBB anyway.

Not sure if your last point has any evidence behind it...

A lot of people say that, but I got 70/90 UMS for Physics G482 (mechanics) and an E for M1..

There's not a lot of correlation..

I don't know what UCAS Extra is, I will look into that

I'm not applying outside of London

There is a difference between not liking an area and not being able to do it.

Oh London, that place where there are loads of unis ranging from some of the top in the country to some of the worst. Yeah I can see how your choice on entry requirement range was so limited.

You should have picked an insurance which had a typical offer of the same as your AS grades at most. This was your mistake when picking unis. Go through extra or clearing or take a year out. If you get the grades you expect you you will get into a uni you want to eventually.

You are doing OCR Physics A Then? I do know what you mean because i am also doing both these modules in June(retaking Mechnics(physics) to try to turn my C grade into an A). From reading your other posts of the thread i too know what its like to be **** at mechanics and good at the interesting stuff ;p I got an A on the Physics unit 2 paper( electrons waves and photons).

You could apply to St Mary's Twickenham. They only need 2 A levels at grade b and I've heard its a great place to study.

What a dick of a teacher...

Yeah sorry typo, G481*

In my defence, last year's M1 exam was **** v_v

lol, I don't think he knows what retakes are, he studied maths at Oxford

LOL, yes that's exactly it, Mechanics just sucks...
At least you got an A on the more important paper, grats!
Ocr Physics A yeah that's right

Good luck with retaking, just remember to stamp SUVAT equations in your head, they pop in 'The Newtonian World' too ¬¬

Aah

Hmmmm fair enough, I think you could still get an a* if you just smash the exams this summer. Even if you don't, M1 won't really help tbh

It depends how much you have left to learn of your other modules, however, I think that it is still possible for you to learn M1.

I found M1 hard at first as well, but I forced myself to learn the content and do the questions, and I completed M1 in 3 weeks.

Cheers but i ****ed the practicals up so i have to retake them as well "_" The Newtonian world is more interesting than Mechanics so hopefully will be easier to revise ;p How are you finding unit 5?

And right there is the problem with many teachers, no empathy. It's a common misconception that the brightest people make the best teachers, not always so imho.

If you're struggling with M1, what makes you think you can do physics at Uni?

Look, people have given you a lot of advice on this thread. Unis can make whatever offers they like- they could all offer you A*A*A* if they wanted, it's unfair, but that's life. The unis you have applied to so far obviously think your current maths achievement is too low to cope with the course- hence the high offers. Either you can try and achieve one of these offers, have a look in UCAS extra and see if anything there is suitable, or take a year out, do more retakes and reapply. Whilst very top universities aren't keen on this, Kings and QMUL will probably still consider you.

If you really want to go to university this year, then chances are you will have to stop limiting yourself and leave London.

However, it seems more like you just wanted to have a moan rather than be offered solutions- which is fine.
