Does your school pay for your remark if you are very close to the boundary?:smile:


I don't know about all schools, but my school definitely does. In year 9 I had all 3 of my exams remarked for my humanities GCSE and I managed to gain a few extra marks, pushing me just over the overall A* boundary :biggrin:

Need to buy smart clothes and equipment for sixth forum, i have nothing a the moment. Thinking of choosing Maths, Biology, Chemistry and Religious Studies, but still have no idea what I'm going to do in uni. And I know when we go back to school our teachers are going to keep bugging me to make my mind up :s-smilie:

Get 3 A's at A level, if you achieve at least 1 A*, even better.

You may qualify for entry into a foundation Medicine Programme where an extra year is spent learning clinical specialities & the science of things however, as long as your A levels are decent, look for Med schools which only require advanced gcse grades (B) in English+a C in a Foreign language, such as UCL, Kings College London or Nottingham.

You'll struggle to get into Med schools which require a fixed amount of A/B grades at Gcse in the sciences, such as Imperial/Leeds/Oxford etc.

I've got As in the Sciences, I know that much.

Ah, well, I'll apply there and if I get an offer, reject it after thought...

There's some years abroad with industry! Or even both separately in the degree :sogood:


Oxbridge not offering Maths with anything (other than Philosophy really) or a year abroad really sucks. :angry:

Oxford offer Maths with Computer Science, Philosophy and Statistics. Cambridge just do Maths and there's the option for Physics if you think you might transfer to the Physics course after a year. But it isn't a great variety of subjects :tongue:

Is it possible to find out the grade boundaries for each exam before the results are issued?

I had a look at the subjects the other day, I want to do computer science at uni and was quite surprised to see that Oxford offered Computer Science and Philosophy together! I thought that was quite an interesting combination :smile: No-one else might, but the thought of Computer Science and Philosophy really appeals to me!

Would Maths and Philosophy appeal to you?
