Every Oxbridge post on here be like

I mean I'm aiming for 5 A*s and Cambridge rejected me so...

Over the past month, I've sat a total of 13 exams totaling over 28 hours. My last one is next Monday and I genuinely feel just as fresh as when I started.
You're also making the assumption that people pick their subjects as a means. I'm doing what I'm doing because I am personally interested in each and every one, and I find academic study enjoyable. I was just making the point that not every high-achieving student is a snob, and some of us are genuinely worried about the next few steps in life.

My comment came off more passive aggressive than I intended; sorry for that.
I don’t think every person who does five alevels is crazy, and if you genuinely enjoy it that’s amazing. However, it is true that, for better or for worse, can count against you in uni applications: either because some unis prefer “well-rounded” students over people who are very academic-minded, or because they worry that once the exam adrenaline rush passes you’ll crash
I don’t think that most people who worry about Oxbridge applications are snobs; it seems much more that they’re incredibly stressed and under way too much external pressure
