My situation

Do you really need 7 A*s to apply to Durham?? I thought if you got crap at GCSES, and got A*s in your A-levels, etc, you could still apply?

Is this not the case?? The most I can apply for is Manchester Uni then, because I only got 5Bs and 3Cs Even if I get A's in all my AS and A level modules??

I looked at your A-Level subjects and to me, it looks like you won't be applying for medicine anyway.

You might need to ring the admissions tutors at the unis. And also I looked at your A-Level subjects and to me, it looks like you won't be applying for medicine anyway.

Could be a foundation year...

I want to apply to UCL or LSE, for a course in business/economics, not quite sure yet.
No, I'm not doing medicine, and correct - those are my AS-level choices.

If I gain A's in A-levels then can I still apply for UCL or LSE or somewhere else good?

I don't want to apply to Manchester Uni, btw...somewhere 'better' I dunno if my GCSES have ruined my opportunity...

You need 7*??
Packs bags and leaves..........
No but seriously i dont even think i got 4A at GCSE. I cant remember - hum i wanna hunt out my old GCSE certificates now.

If you do redo your GCSEs get to get an A*, not meaning to sound rude but, don't come crawling back and here and saying, "I've spent to mcuh time redoing me GCSE As to get A*'s. Now I got bad module grades, should I retake or remark?".

To be honest, if you have outstanding A-Levels, surely Durham/Birmingham will overlook the 7A* requirement?

Here's my tip, "concentrate on the future, instead on the past. Because that's gone, and because you are desperate to get those A*s, you should have tried harder in year 10/11."

Just concentrate on your A-Levels, 4As and 4A*s is still good. To be honest, I'm just thankful that the first four wasn't B/Cs because I really would not know how you would have reacted.

Also, because you are a bit negative towards your grades, how are you going to cope with the workload of A-Level, "oh this is too hard, I'm not going to get into Durham. *Throws history textbook out the window*. Maybe I should concentrate on redoing my A in physics".

Honestly, do your best in A-Levels!

I doubt you would get in for pure economics at LSE, they're looking for applicants with straight a*/a, it's the most competative course at LSE i hear

Who negged me and left me with this comment? Honestly, I just want to know who.

Lol no worries. Anyway I thought it was 5A*s for their med program...

I'm upset now...lol! I guess in my next life, I will have to try better....

But, honestly - I don't have a chance to get into a top, or near-top uni?? I might aswell go Man Metropolitan, and get D's in my A-levels, because there isn't anywhere else to go if I get A's in my A-levels?

lols it wasn't me
