LAE reserve list

Hi, I got an email from LAE saying I got into the reserve list. Not sure if I should be a bit relieved or depressed. Did anyone here get admitted from the reserve list? Am I screwed?

Holy Mary, mother of Christ! Maybe I got in because of FSM... How were the mock grade boundaries like in your school?

the mock grade boundaries were quite high- like u needed at least 85%+ for a 9 and 75% for an 8 i think. thats only for science nd maths and for the other subjects like re i needed 98% for a 9 so 😞😞

Nope, I think only those with conditional offers were invited.

On your application status for offer what does it say? As I'm also on the reserve list but the application status says pending on mine?

It also says pending for me.
(Atleast it's not "rejected"!)

I’m also on reserve list 😞 I applied for doo doo subjects that I don’t want to do cos I was capped off from science because of my maths predicted

Honestly I think it's better that you do subjects you're passionate about in another sixth form (Brampton and NCS maybe), but you do you. Maybe it could become love at first sight. (source: my relationship with media studies).

ok but why would you want to apply for subjects you don't want to do just to get into a sixth form? Sixth form is barely 2 years of your life so the sixth form you go to isnt really going to matter, but the subjects you do is obviously much more important because you're going to spend hours revising for it.

Yesss it also says pending for me! I was so annoyed that in my school some people got places just by recommendation when they aren’t that smart. It didn’t give a fair chance to all but hopefully on results day we can all still apply. PLEASEEEEEE😭😭😭
