Current Year 13 Thread (2013/14) - Mark I

Sciency eh? I think I probably would have applied for a BA if I hadn't picked history, was considering doing law for a bit though, so glad I didn't pick that

Ehh I hate writing essays though, i'm only doing it because I can do them so to speak
You doing a law conversion at the end then?

Rather you than me - Most of my History courses have had Germany involved in some way shape and form.

Started the first draft of my PS. It's actually coming together quite nicely, although I'm having a bit of trouble thinking how best to phrase what I want to say in the first paragraph. (I know what I want to say but can't think how best to express it right now.)

Oh just seen this, i'm applying for medicine

IB Subjects: Biology, Chemistry, Geography, Maths, English, Japanese
University choices: Queen Mary, St George's, Hull York and Birmingham

The first paragraph's always the hardest

Maybe , I'm keeping my options open , what do you want to do after your degree??

Hello guys I need some help...

I'm going to be applying for Law, however not entirely sure whether i'd like to go down the law route after university or go into something finance related. To keep my options open I think it would be best to pick up AS Maths just incase I decide to go into finance. However, my maths ability is not the best. I originally got a C at GCSE with AQA, in Year 12 I resat with Edexcel and got an A, however maths a level is completely different to gcse. If I was to pick up AS Maths then I would probably go to my local all boys school (my school allows students to go there to study 1 subject) as the maths teachers at my school are terrible. Only thing is that the all boys school teaches OCR Maths which is apparently the hardest board? whereas my school teaches maths on AQA.

Really confused about what to do right now

I need your (or anyone who is good at English/has a good vocabulary) help! Can you think of a good synonym for me to use in my PS instead of "attending"? Just to give context


"____________ meetings with clients.."

Reason being, I've already used attending to open my second paragraph and I really hate repeating words like this! If there's nothing suitable I will just have to use it but I'd really prefer not to, if at all possible.


Thanks!

Hmm get a job hopefully, need to get offers from my unis even before I think about that hahah! wbu?


Don't do maths, law doesn't require maths, and you will probably fail it as its much harder than gcse. Also going to the boys school is a hassle.

"Turn up to"?

Just kidding. What exactly were you doing? If you weren't an active participant, you could use "observing"? "Sitting in on"? "Being present at"?

Observing might work. Thanks!
