Biology :puke:
Chemistry - Have a read of the website "chemguide"
Maths - brush up on algebra and maybe check out examsolutions.net to start C1/2.

History - nothing to do :smile: until you start the course

Brush up on grammar. That's the big one, case systems as well.

i think that we are in the same situation because on top if those a-levels that you saw i might actually do Italian as well but might change it for history because 5 a-levels is asking for a suicide...:s-smilie:

Yeh I was doing biology chemistry maths and physics.. Then I decided to do german as well ( thinking that there would be lots of overlap with maths and physics so I could do 5 - also german is a language so not too much revision) but then I realised that there really aren't many benefits of doing 5 and they don't outweigh the work load..

I want to do medicine lol :biggrin: but don't want to get my heart too set in it.. Soooo competitive it's ridiculous :frown: maybe chemistry..

Yeh I'm doing an EPQ as well.. :smile: yeh I decided I mucchh preferred german to physics (by far my least favourite science)

We sound pretty similar haha

feels like i just received a slap at my face when i saw ur perdictions,pretty good, im hoping to reach 5 A*:eek:

Awesome man. How many GCSEs are you doing? What grades are you aiming for?
What uni's are you thinking of?

I want to do medicine or dentistry too... but most likely medicine? :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

Jatz

I'm doing about 9 gcses.
aiming for 5 A* although i'm predicted 2. I am currently aiming at ucl,imperial and maybe oxford>(but i'm saying oxford because i know that in my a-levels i am going to work a lot harder).YOU?
Original post by Jatz07
Awesome man... I'm aiming for 7A* , but we will see how it goes next month

I would choose cambridge rather than oxford because the problem with oxford is that they base GCSE Results more significant than predicted A2 grades for medicine... plus 70-80% of applicants have majority A*s in gcse, and gcse plays a big part in interview!

Cambridge is definitely an option for you though :smile: Just concentrate on getting high ums at A level, gcse's aren't significant as much as A levels apart from oxford

Jatz

Yeah, i have heard, but what other uni's have you got in mind
