It was because I’d attended a summer school at Durham where I was interviewed and did tests. I passed them and so got a guaranteed reduced offer

Hey I've recently applied to study Physics!
Achieved Higher- AAAAA (maths, english, physics, biology, chemistry)
Advanced Higher predictions- AAA (chem maths and physics) my school doesn't offer the scottish equivalent of further maths so that was sad and there is no a* in Scotland.
I've Applied to Oxford, Imperial, St andrews, Edinburgh and Glasgow!
Currently have an offer (unconditional) from Glasgow.

past papers past papers past papers and some more. it all clicks later on when you are doing actual problems and applying the really disconnected crap you learn about circles and calculus early

Hello!
Unis: Oxford Physics
Imperial Physics with a year abroad
Durham: Physics
Manchester: Physics with a Year in Europe
Bristol: Physics with International Experience

For the predicted grades, i’m in the French system, so it won’t interest anyone

And I have an interview at Manchester in a few weeks, but no other offers yet!
