It was meant to be tomorrow (they told me about it last tuesday so really quick!) and they had to cancel it due to a staff meeting so now they are re-arranging and said that they will give me the new date by friday!

Im glad I had over a months notice to prepare for it. Im more nervous about the maths and English test rather than the actual interview. Like what if I fail it

it's the subsidiary diploma which is the same as a national diploma i think? so its worth just one A-level, so I only get one grade out of it, but yes its so much work! As I live in Wales and still in school I also have to do the welsh bacc diploma as an A level - its crazy!
