Harris Westminster Entrance Exams

I withdrew my application for HWSF lol but instead I have an officer for the new sixth form opening in central London called Powerlist Foundation College. It has a lot of hype around it - certainly enough to make me choose it over HWSF.

People, I need a bit of advice. For the past month or so I've been contemplating whether to continue maths to A level or not. I'm currently getting As but I think by June with a load of hard work I can pull off an A*, my teacher and tutor believe so too. Going into finance is my second plan for my future, something like accountancy will fill my cup but I'm not sure how I'd do on the A level course as people in my school sixth form get A*s at GCSE but Es and Ds at A level.

Take maths, it takes you into a lot of careers, and an A is decent in maths. Taking anything else narrows your career margin. And maths looks awesome on a CV.

Enlgish Literature: A*
English Language: A*
Biology: A*
Chemistry: A*
Physics:A*
Maths: A*
Further Maths: A^
French: A* (although I doubt it considering I got a C in my listening mock)

What A-Levels are you taking?

Whats your favourite Harry Potter book?

Chemistry, Biology, Physics & Maths!
What about you?

Oh wow you're really young! And my school only does Bronze at this stage! I'd apply to NCS The Challenge but I don't want to make the effort to network with everyone who I probably won't ever meet again.



If only Hogwarts was real, it'd be the perfect school. *sighs longingly* Some scenes in Hogwarts were actually filmed at Oxford University. What's your favourite spell? Mine is 'Avada Kedavra', it represents something that Everyone will face- Death.

Mmmm it'd have to be Chamber Of Secrets, it's a time where Harry realises that society will turn on him in a heartbeat. And I loved Dobby, his well-intentioned saviour moments were hilarious. You?

Do Harris Westminsiter do a introductory day for new students because I want to know what it feels like to be a student there.

Yes, last year, near the end of June/Start of July, they had an introductory/induction day for prospective students. They did stuff like going around Westminster doing a treasure hunt, and got to know each other. Seems fun! Hope they do it aswell this year.

Just wondering if anybody had received a letter from Harris Westminster about showing evidence to prove that you have been entitled for free school meals since 2010

Just think, now you are going to meet a lot of other new people who you will build awesome friendships with :-) only one other person from my school also got accepted and she's not that interested lol. I've been accepted to another sixth form nearer my location, it's new but has a good reputation so far and most of my friends also got accepted, oh and they give every student a free iPad and free gym membership and books (which I love). However, HWSF offers so much more and it is a life goal of mine to study at Oxford, so altogether we just have to remember to put our priorities first and remember that we have been given a great opportunity lol :-):-):-)

Yep, it's been quite a struggle for me but I've got a letter from the deputy head of my school confirming so.
