That's fine lol
- I took Maths, F. Maths, Chemistry and Physics
- only external exams I did was Maths and F.Maths as the other ones are reformed so I did internal exams for physics and chemistry instead.
ums module scores
C1-100
C2-100
M1-100
S1-100
M2-95
FP1- 73 (bad day) so avg is around like 95

-I don't think we can find out ENGAA results any time soon but if you want to know you'd have to request it

I got it about 4 days ago- dw they take a while to get back sometimes and plus with those ums you're pretty much guaranteed to get an interview (I was so annoyed with the fp1 exam this year lol)
