Well I got what would be full ums in c3 and c4 and then a C in m2 hahaha :colondollar: but if I got that in the summer I'd get an a* so it's chilled aha

So I'm super happy with the pure maths but obviously need to work on mechanics because I'm just so bad at it


Well done!! I still have no idea how UMS works, what is it for?

Do you do physics as well? I find people who do Physics tend to find Mechanics fairly straightforward.

I'm doing Scottish Highers/Advanced Highers and we just get a raw mark - the grade boundary is either shifted up or down depending on the difficulty of the exam.

Nope I don't do physics so everything in mechanics is pretty new to me and I just do not understand it at all

Ah ok well ums just averages everything out depending on the exam so that ums is directly comparable year on year

Haha thank you :biggrin:

I really liked Nottingham and if they'd have given me an aabb offer not a*abb offer they'd almost certainly be my insurance :biggrin:

No, otherwise we wouldn't all be so happy- offer conditional on open day- not on UCAS track. Also got offer today- will be firming UCL!
