Scroll to see replies

Original post by dinrah04
We have one pretty decent school nearby 'Kings', they're like our rival school but they're a religious school. They accept 12 people on an account of academics or musical skill each year, the rest get in by having a letter from their religious leader. They tried to offer me a place in year 9, but I decided against it haha.


Aah I see :tongue: darn! I'd try for it.. :frown: lol I don't think I'd quite cut their religious standards...

When I'm older I dream of making an amazing grammar school... :smile:

It doesnt matter about the building I mean your school academically probably does so much better! :tongue: :wink:


It doesn't... :frown: we get like below average grades... And then like ten really good results and like 3 amazing results...

Nope, a letter from your local imam or priest, and boom you're in.

Yeah, I don't think I'd get a letter :wink: and :lol: don't think I'd like to go there anyway...

Just a normal elite school would be fine.. But it makes it more fun, for me, if I got into Cambridge I feel like I deserve it... Like I fought through the system, which helps others..

They're not especially religious, except they have their own like partnered church thing lol. Good luck on Cambridge, I'm not even going to bother applying really.

Aww why?? :tongue: I am :smile:
I wouldn't get yourselves set on particular universities yet, because if something gets in the way of your plans you come crashing down hard. Trust me, it's not nice to have planned a whole future and then have to start fresh with no clue what to do.

It won't hurt, it'll be nice to see if there's anything else you're interested in too that you didn't think you were. :smile:

Yep... I have different courses, and different universities... I wish I could do multiple degrees :frown: such a shame we can't do lots... There's Medicine/Engineering/Pure Science/Astrophysics and Cosmology/Architecture/History/French

And I'd consider all of them...

Ahh yeah Im intrested in interior design so Architecture would probably be my other alternative but would also mean if I didnt get into medicine I would have to repeat with different A levels :colondollar:

Im gonna do both and see what happens :wink: :tongue: Aww well you know good Luck but that would mean you wouldnt be going cambridge :frown:
Enjoy Year 11, it's good fun. Looking back, probably the best year to date. You're with all your friends, top of the school and the work load isn't too high. I remember when on a Friday after school I used to go with a friend/friends to see a horror/comedy movie at the cinema to get away from the stresses of exam, maybe you could do that too :biggrin: :tongue:

Well, the next year of my life is going to be tough (Year 12) :emo:

Aww, as if I'd get into Cambridge, I know they better trying but I don't want to waste a space on my applications.
