Aiming for A*A*A* and possibly another A* at Alevel!

Hahahhahah buddy. You said you an average student. You shouldn't be doing A Levels if you didn't get an "A" grade in the relevant GCSE subject, a grade "B" minimum. Anything lower, like an average "C" grade, and you'll most likely fail the course, not get straight A*'s which even smart people with straight A*'s/A's at GCSE struggle to get. These are A Levels not GCSE's. GCSE's can be studied in a few months, A Levels like Biology and Chemistry need more than the 2 years given. I think you really need to research on your courses better, and then set some realistic goals. Who knows, maybe you'll come back to this thread in 2 years and prove me wrong, but until then, you have no ground to stand on. Good Luck.

This is meant to be a supportive section. Take your nastiness somewhere else

Thank you so much! I give up with the negativity on here sometimes

I don't think is being nasty, but rather supportive.

Keep dreaming man. **** you and your effort.

Well I got here in the right time.
I have the same ambitions which are deemed as unrealistic by people who can't be arsed to get good grades themselves.
I plan to get 4A* in the A levels: Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics. In the process my entire life for the next 2 years will be DEDICATED to these subjects. You aren't alone, but remember that it will take a lot of sleepless nights, coffee and repeating the specification (with immacualte revision notes) as MANY times possible in this time period. Repetition is key. Just remember the sacrifices you need to make; this INCLUDES social media and friebnds. I'm afraid that friends are acceptable losses since they come and go....just like that (from NY experience).

In short, you have my unwavering support!
N.B don't expect much for me though, I will be very inactive. I might come on TSR to share (and receive) resourcea. I hope you make it.

Keep dreaming man. You're like this autistic kid in my class who thinks life will be easy because you're going try really hard. **** you and your effort.

Okay thanks

You're over-exaggerating the workload. You don't need any sleepless nights or coffee or need to lost friends in order to get A*A*A*. Nor do you need to rewrite the spec over and over again.

I don't know where you got these expectations from, but frankly they sound very unhealthy and will most likely stand in the way of your succeeding. If you want some realistic expectations, I suggest you watch YouTube videos by someone who got A*s or look at TSR's A* advice page.

Wow! Amazing a levels to take, I was on the verge of taking maths but decided against it at the last minute. Thank you for you support and I wish you the best in any results you may be getting soon. What year are you in?

It's not healthy If you give up your entire social life and dedicate everything to your studies for two years. You need to keep a balance. I'd say from about March yr 13 you should go full keen.
