Well, when I say send off, I mean complete the UCAS from and pay, but my school will still take a week or so to complete the reference, so it won't actually be properly sent until the first week of October

Obviously other people's that need a first review take priority but if you can have a quick skim it would be great...

Nearly, I'm sending mine off some time next week, as our internal school deadline is the 30th

So it must be only our school that had a deadline last week :frown:

A leniant one though as I'm sending it today, but still...

Na I am sending it, just wanted to perfect it, by getting more teachers to check through it. Even now I don't feel entirely happy with it, but I think/hope its good enough, just.

What college is the most prestigious in Durham? Anyone applying there? Have no idea what college to put down.

Put down University College for now because it looks like a Cambridge college

Hey guys I need a wee bit of advice on where to apply for economics this year.

First off, my AS didnt go brilliantly :|

I got BBBD in Economics, French, Maths and Chem

Both Economics and French are pending remarks so fingers crossed they go up! (1 UMS and 2 UMS off the next grade respectively)

I've also managed to presuade my college maths teacher to teach me AS and A2 Further Mathematics and I'm coping really well with it at the moment!

I've dropped Chemistry and I'm getting predicted grades of A*AAB/A*AAA/AAAA in Maths, FM, Economics and French

Most likely AAAA

I'm planning on making an exceptional statement and i'm looking at places such as Bristol (study in Europe) and Nottingham (with French)

What are my chances...

:s-smilie:

This is an example of how corrupt predicted grades are.

Seriously, how can a school be allowed to do this???
