I've also got an interview! 29th January. :biggrin:

It says in the e-mail that it's regarding your ''application''.

Ensure you can explain why you picked each of your subjects and the course that you're hoping to do at university. Furthermore, any extra-curriculars you put down, I'd be ready to talk about them and how they are relevant to your intended career path.

Who's your interview with?

tbh my arent predicted grades aren't bad just not as good as yours. If they do it on a first come first serve basis then I'm doomed also. I have 5 9s, 2 8s and 2 7s so I think I'm fine...hopefully. What are you taking?

you basically have 9 because of the music BTEC but it doesn't count. I also have the fsmq in Add maths but it also doesn't count sadly

At my school you have to do the core sciences, English, maths, a language, history or geography, and two other options from a list eg psychology, sociology which is what I chose
