Should I take 4 subjects onto A2 to make up for poor GCSE results?

Oh right that's a relief! Part of my Churchill decision was for the extremely good internet. Looks like I'll have no social life at Cambridge (if I get in...)

Haha same! What subject are you?

1 and a 2 in ii and iii instead. Slightly easier I guess. But I do have a chance that they'd accept me for CS with NatSci if I miss STEP which is nice. Hope to see you there in October, we can be anti-social together :biggrin:

I wish it were a guaranteed fall back but I think if I screw up STEP TOO much they'd still reject me.
Good luck to you too! With STEP we'll need it...

definitely especially with step iii. I honestly don't see myself every getting a 1 unless I get a paper tailored towards me.

It's the breakneck speed you need. With enough time I could get a 1, hell maybe even an S on a good paper but in 3 hours? God...
