I think our heights are pretty normal, physicsmaths' height is definitely abnormal though. My ideal height is 6 feet so I hope I can get a few inches there. As far as I know, one doesn't stop growing until like 18 right?

@Mathemagicien, @Serine Sоul,

Since I said before I would ask a friend what my height is (compared to theirs), one of my good friends said I was "something like 5'10'' ", just as I supposed.

Thaf's decent. My dad is around that height

In a weird way I'm kind of glad I developed it early on because I can imagine it being really traumatic to go through puberty and development with your spine twisting :O It makes for a great introductory story though :wink:

It's the best height to be at - small enough to hide but not so small to get lost!

I have some friends who are shorter as well but they compensate with massive, impossible to walk in heels!

Yeah it must be awful!

I agree, though there are some shelves that are still beyond reach for me :'(

They defo have these massive 5 inch heels that just look painful :redface: I can barely manage 3

you might wanna try and stop growing at some point, after 6 ft+ there were so many low doors in cambridge I hit my head on.

Alright, I believe you. I must have misremembered.

Depends. You'd certainly grow taller if you did this:

Incorporate lots and lots of protein into your diet, and hang something off the ceiling to try and reach everyday (stretching basically)

I had a phase where I was very determined to reach 5'8 so I could become a model, but stopped following my routine after 2 days...

All right, so grade boundaries for both A-levels and STEP are released on about 15/16th August. Where would I find those grade boundaries?

Just where they normally are.

AFAIK, STEP boundaries are released strictly on the 17th. Might be wrong about that.

You'll find them on the ATS website.

Is anyone else thinking more and more about how they did on STEP as the day comes closer? :afraid:
