I'm struggling with my A Levels so bad right now 
I don't have very high standards so I'll be happy with 2 C's and a D (that's being ambitious. 
) Anyway, I study Religious Studies, Law and Sociology.

Submitted my UCAS application today! Can't wait to start hearing back, have many of you got offers yet?
Congratulations. Just got an interview at oxford for English. I have offers from Warwick, Birmingham, Reading and Chester . Good luck
So I'm basically doing the whole A level course for Maths, physics and Economics in one year. I wanted to ask if by just using the CGP revision guides and past papers for Physics and Economics (new spec), I could achieve an A-A*. I just feel as if the text books have allot of irrelevant information and plus time is not on my side. Ed excel for Maths and Economics, OCR A for Physics.............
Been ages everyone! How are you all?

So you're not at sixth form / college?
What subjects are you studying?: Economics, Government and Politics, Maths
What grades do you hope to achieve?: AAB
Plans for after Year 13: Economics at Uni.
Going to uni? If so, which?: Not sure if I'll end up going. Going through a 'not listening, not revising' period like I did last year up until after Christmas. Might not end up getting the grades.
Future Goals: Work in employment for a while and then work for myself (Run my own business)
Tell us a bit about yourself: I like clothes, creativity, being lazy, business and trying to make money.
How you feeling about this year? Like poo warmed up.

CGP is awful for OCR Physics A - the text book is better but still not great - there aren't many good resources other than old spec text books to learn from without a teacher due to it being new spec
What subjects are you studying?: Biology, Chemistry, Maths, German

What subjects are you studying?: Biology, Psychology, Sociology and EPQWhat grades do you hope to achieve?: All A*s would be amazing, but realistically AAA is still pushing itPlans for after Year 13: University Going to uni? If so, which?: Southampton is the dream atm. I got my UCAS sorted back in September and firmed it by October half term.Future Goals: Biology or psychology of some form. I've recently been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, but for the past three years it's been getting progressively worse in that now some days I can't hold tweezers. Hence why psychology is an option rather than just bio now. I love both so it's okay biology was my favourite but after a bad teacher and fibro I'm having to consider psychology too. Tell us a bit about yourself: I'm Charley I'm 18 and I love cats, animals in general and so many tv shows it's bad! I spend most my time either with my friends, studying (obviously) or cuddled ip with my cat and dog sleeping/watching Lucifer or supernatural or many others. How you feeling about this year?: Arghhh, someone find me the motivation and energy to continue! I'm so stressed!AS Grades (If you wish to share): AAAA (dropped chemistry)
What subjects are you studying?: History (OCR), Latin (OCR), Religious Studies (EDEXCEL), Mathematics (EDEXCEL). I already have A-Level Music (A grade).
What grades do you hope to achieve?: A*A*AA
Plans for after Year 13: University
Going to uni? If so, which?: I'll decide that when I get all my offers in. So far I have offers from Warwick, Sussex, Kent, and Sheffield. Will get a decision from Oxford (Oriel) next week. I've also got offers from two US colleges, Notre Dame and The Ohio State University, and will get decisions from the others I've applied to (Columbia, Yale, Brown, Northwestern, Brandeis, and Tufts) in April.
Future Goals: I want to study History, and preferably would like to work within the field, but not sure doing what yet.
Tell us a bit about yourself: I'm Charlotte aka Charley (*waves* to other Charley above!), and I attend a boarding school, about 120 miles away from home. It isn't too bad, as my twin brother is here too. I like films, music (I play cello, piano and saxophone, all to varying degrees, cello is my strongest instrument), sport (especially American sports), and obviously history. Like my fellow Charley above (*waves* again), I love Supernatural, and would go as far as to say I'm obsessed with it.
How you feeling about this year?: I've been pretty calm about the whole year, although this may change now the home straight is in sight.
AS Grades (If you wish to share): N/A - my school has only offered linear A-Levels for several years now.
What grades do you hope to achieve?: A*A*AA
