Scroll to see replies

Hey everyone!

🌸We are officially halfway through our A Levels (or equivalent). For some, this will be the final year of education. So, it’s pretty exciting!!🌸

💚We have all come so far💚

🌟This is a judgemental-free, positive space. You can dump your worries here, bond with other year 13s, share your revision plans, motivate each other etc!🌟

🦋This year is going to be a very busy year, but I know we can smash it! :smile:

🦋

☃️Here are some icebreaker questions☃️

1) Which subjects are you taking?
2) Are you enjoying them?
3) If you are doing/have done an EPQ, what topic is on?
4) What are your plans for after A Levels?
5) What do you personally want to achieve?
6) How are you feeling about year 13?

1) Physics, Biology, Sociology

2) Physics is killing me :smile:

3) I haven't done an EPQ

4) I want to hopefully go to Aston University and study optometry

5) Getting all A's or A*s

6) It's very stressful. There's so much to do in such a short amount of time. I really regret wasting time in Year 12 :frown:

What do you mean by 'put these in order' ? Are you referring to the league tables? Also there is no 'order' when you apply through UCAS.

Have you looked at the 2022 university rankings for your subject? Usually a good place to start.

1) History, English Lit and Sociology
2) Yeah, although history coursework will be the death of me
3) I did mine on the film industry and did quite well on it!
4) I really want to go to uni to study film and screen studies. (Not similar to my A levels, I know.)
5) Hoping for A*AA or A*AB but I'll be happy with whatever happens
6) Stressed - but I think I'll be ok.

I am. Have to hand it all in to school by the 30th though, which is very quickly creeping up on me 😬😱

I am too I still have until I think the 10th to submit it. I'm basically done though just waiting on an email about my next step Bristol application to see if I get a guaranteed interview.
Good luck to you guys though :redface:
