Thanks, Ive seen that but how would you know if you meet the contextual boxes and your school is a poorly performing school

you will know if your school is under performing when you see that it has 0% of pupils achieving ABB/AAB or above in 2012.

whats your college name? I will have a look for you if you want :smile:

Your college is definitely better than mine but still seems under performing. Your high school seems to be populated by those from disadvantaged back grounds too. (unis infer this from the amount of students eligible to free school meals and it states "HIGH" )

Manchester have PDF with a list of all the schools that would meet the WP flag criteria which shows whether it is underperforming or not. It seems to be unavailable on their website today but do check on a later date if you need to. Call your choices up too :smile:

Here is a link to Manchester's WP flag page. The schools information document is not up yet (probably needed updating)

I applied last year and got a post-interview rejection, I heard somewhere that you can't re apply if you were rejected post interview? :frown:

I haven't seen anywhere that you can't re-apply for entry through Newcastle if you were rejected post interview. Definitely ring them up ASAP because if you can re-apply to them they would be a good choice because you've been through the interview process before and could be better prepared for it. :smile:

Oh lol, when I first read your post I thought you meant you blacked out (as in you fainted, because of the stress of the medical cycle for 10 minutes :tongue:

an actual blackout must be pretty scary :frown:

) wow, never been in one myself but then again like FlavaFavourFruit, I'm also in London.

I guess we can afford to have blackouts where we live as there's not much going on here...we don't even have a train station close by :/
