I think so, they're "talking about alternative methods"... I too would like them to continue.

Couple things. Predicted grades aren't CAG. We don't know CAGs are going to happen. School is still open virtually. Being one grade below an offer means you're fairly likely to get it as most unis are pretty lenient

Nope are you? I'm literally relying on my teachers at this point because a lot of people tried to retake this year and look they've cancelled exams again.

Certain on all points. Last year, predicted ucas grades weren't the same as CAGs

No joke. My dreams are crushed. At least with exams I had a chance of proving everyone wrong but now, no hope.

They aren't cancelled. Will be likely you will sit internal mocks in the summer for 50% of the grade and the other proportion will be a combination of predicted grades, centre assessed average grade etc.

yea i’m a resit student, missed my choice last year by two grades

now i’m stuck in the predicament of going to my deferred place or applying again with my slightly higher predicted than last year

last year I got CBB, predicted BBB and was aiming for ABB.

This year i am retaking my C and B, they are both predicted B and A, and my final subject i wasn’t going to retake. just wondering if it’s worth applying again with only ABB, one grade up from last year, in hopes that i can get into the uni i want

Where did you plan on taking the exam ? Because it's likely you may still be able to complete the course for better grades. They said no exams but that doesn't mean the exams are cancelled.
