predicted grades

Your school is being a bit unfair. They should be helping you and at least predict what they predicted for you last year.

i mean even then my predicteds lower then what i got for cs, and a B for chem, which isn’t enough for med

im on my gap year and gonna reapply to medicine this september, however im going to resit 2 of my alevels next june

my school said they can’t give me predicted grades and said to just put my other two grades as pending when applying.

but i feel like that would look terrible on my application and lead to 4 med rejections
i had a tutor online for chem and cs last year so i want to ask them to predict me the two As. but i just wanna make sure if this is allowed? and how would it work, do i ask them to email the unis, with my predicted? as an additional reference aside from my main one from school.

also one of my tutors said he doesn’t have a teaching certificate/degree? is this mandatory to give me a predicted😭

If you are applying as an independent applicant you can name who you like as your referee (with their consent) - and they can give your predicted grades if they are willing to do this. No, they dont have to be a 'qualified teacher' - just that they have taught you as a tutor is fine.

There is absolutely no point in a school just predicting what you want. They should be predicting what they believe you will get. Even if your school predicted your grade as an A you would need to actually achieve the A. Clearly your school dont believe you will achieve an A and despite what has been said if they dont believe it they shouldnt predict it. It isnt unfair. It is acting in a professional manner unlike many schools who over predict hence why 3/4 of students dont reach their predicted grades

thank you, (:

Talk to the school - they may be willing to accept grades from your tutor and add them to their reference with a note.
This is much easier for the Unis, and wont delay your applications while they scape around to get your predicted grades.
