Happy that I managed to bring each grade up and that I was only three marks off an A* in chemistry! I also got 100UMS in C4 this year so that was nice!

Going to be starting at Cardiff next month :smile:

Hi, congrats everyone who did well and met their uni offers!

Just curious, could you please reply with "Me (or maybe give some more info) if you got into a Russel group uni and achieved at least ABB-A*A*A* grades and fit any of the following criteria.

1) Went to a private school
2) an 'Outstanding' School ( Ofsted report)
3) Are fairly wealthy
4) Has help from family e.g. maybe an elder that helped you in education when you were younger.
5) Has parents/grandparents and above that have been to university.

If you do not fit this criteria but have achieved the grades then could you reply and just tell me what grades you achieved and what uni you will be going to and what will you be studying?

Thanks.


Is this for some sort of survey?

After my exams, I knew I got an A* in Maths and Chemistry but I was unsure whether I got even an A in biology because Edexcel Biology 2016 exams were really hard and I am very pessimistic. But ended up with 3A*s and am going to UCL to study medicine!

And why are you going for a remark? What's the point? You got into your firm.. Waste of money IMO. And no, I'm not jealous, I got 578 in AQA Chem

Hey, pretty sure I've seen you on some other threads!

Apparently, I was borderline at the interview so they beefed up the offer a little, but glad to have made it either way :smile:

Nice. What exam boards did you do exactly?

Also do you have any tips for each of these subjects? I'm retaking next year and want to do just as well, please be specific, thanks.
