You're not butting in! Whereabouts in Hampshire if you don't mind me asking? :smile: (PM if you'd like :tongue:)

Near Southampton. How's about you?

Physics killed me. I spent most of my time on it... I can't wait to drop it soon. Medicine! Nice. I want to do chemistry. What uni are you hoping for? I imagine you need to take the UKCAT soon?


I'll be dropping it this year too. Really didn't enjoy it last year, but hopefully the work pays off and I get a good grade. My first choice will be Manchester, my whole family went to that freaking university, I'd be like a freaking stain if I can't get in :-)

Yup, UKCAT later this month, studying mad for it, hopefully the AS level results will give me a bit of confidence

Ah, definitely! Those are really easy to get yourself sucked into and so lose an hour or a few. I haven't really had the opportunity in recent days though, unfortunately. :frown: Have you gotten to read anything good lately? :h:

Yeah, you do get distracted from trivialities but the feeling can last for a long time though :h:. Oh, that's annoying :frown:. I have been suggested a book but I haven't started reading it yet but will do soon :tongue:. Besides, there are two other books I need to read them before I do anything else but I will leave them until after August. How about you? :smile:

how comes someone else here has an A*AA Exeter offer then? &what board are you for Chem?


Exeter gives contextual offers of AAA - I also have an AAA offer from them which I've put as my insurance :smile:

Hampshire :smile: Ahahah 25%, not too shabby :wink:

We also have uniform allowance - up to £75 60% off 😎

In all seriousness though, it'd be cool to transfer to the Bath store when I go to uni.

That is a lot!! I want to work at Burtons now damn it

I'm coming to visit :tongue: if you transfer to Bath though, I'm serious about visiting for a discount if you say yes :puppyeyes:


Wow. I mean fair enough if they lose them theres not much to do about that. But the exam boards shouldn't lose them, the results affect the rest of peoples lives.


Then again, this may not be completely detrimental. Say I have 3 exams and perform amazing in 2 of them (A grade) but the other just kills me and the board loses that worst paper, theres a high change I'd get a reasonable grade because of the other two exams.
Plus, it doesn't help that I know some of my marks from the official markschemes that were released online.

I don't mean positivity I'm regards to having hope, I mean positivity in regards to not worrying and knowing that there's really nothing you can do than wait.


Oh, cool :smile:. yeah that is it really. I would rather think what do to change the future than worrying for results day ( Well. that's because I'm not going to uni :tongue:). Though if you are holding an offer then worrying is quite a normal thing because its about going somewhere where you meet people of similar interests, you don't want to miss that really :smile:

Yay! What books are those? I hope you enjoy them! Are they academic books? I think I remember you saying you'd go back to reading things like that after August. :h:

Right now, I'm about halfway through Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (rereading the series!) and A Fault in Our Stars then I intend to start Le château de ma mère after those to throw myself back into the deep end with French. I've been on them all for a while now though :s
