can i still get accepted into LAE??

my predicted grades were all 9s and an 8 in geography in my february mocks (which was what i used to apply) but i literally stopped locking in and now it’s looking like 9s, 8s and maybe a 7 if it’s especially bad. the email they sent me said that they would offer a priority window on results day for people who achieved their predicted grades, made the entry requirements, and exceeded subject requirements. i’m pretty sure i exceeded entry and the subjects i want to take, but im definitely not getting my predicted grades. is that gonna change anything 😭?

hm im in a similar predicament my friend. thing is its not just you and me. hundreds, maybe thousands of other applicants that will be worse off than us should be more worried. put it into perspective, u meet 2 out of 3, entry requirements and subject requirements.

and anyway we tend to underestimate performances surrounding these things. even when im in the last 5 mins of an exam, counting up marks and being what I think is realistic and unbiased, I end up being pleasantly surprised later. dont doubt yourself too much whats done is done. I know we keep hearing it but sometimes a personalised response from an internet twin does the trick.

ur place is still v likely. u just might not be in the first batch they process on results day. just show up in good time, bring those results and good energy, and if needed, talk to someone. ur track record is strong AND they know not everyone performs like that in mocks. u got this bbg.

really really hope this helps x
wonder if ill see you on results day, maybe even end up in the same class by september! ill pray for us.

also dont hesitate to reply or get in touch I wanna know how everything goes.
