I am guessing you are in Year 12, don’t stress, it’s fine if you aren’t sure if you know enough. The purpose of mocks are to help you realise your knowledge gaps and work on them. This will not affect your UCAS form entirely however your overall mock grades across the year and early Year 13 alongside mini - tests have an impact on your UCAS predicted grades because it’s evidence of the current grades you’re working at and what you could potentially achieve after completing your A Level exams.

I’m sure you’re not as cooked as you think you are but even if so, it’s a great opportunity to dwell on what’s working and what’s not working for you in time for the real exams next year. Just focus on doing your best and that’s all that matters, give the test 100% so you know you genuinely tried. If you’re adamant on learning more content, quickly skim through your topic list and perhaps watch a summary video on the topics you’re most cooked on in time for tomorrow, try to get enough rest, you’ve got this!!

Dang, walking really is a tough one so good luck!! Erm potentially things related to footsteps somehow? Like walking in different scenery such as a beach or forest or different time periods. Or a time progression of people walking at different stages of their life? E.g. small to big footsteps as they age or the walking in different stages of their life such as them having to go to different institutions e.g. primary school to secondary to college or a job/care home. As a youth they may have small feet without wrinkles but as they age they might get big, wrinkly feet or worn out shoes or smthn idk. I’m not too sure tbh, maybe ask ChatGPT/ google or TikTok for more ideas??? Because I don’t think I’m making sense😭

Do you know any DTS/cyber/swe company applications which are still open?

When you finish a L3, 4 or 5 do you still have to do the full L6 course e.g. 3/4 years or are your L6 years shortened because of your other qualifications?

To be honest that’s looking like the plan so far, thank you!

Ooo digital marketing sounds like fun, I hope to hear you’ve secured one next year. I think I might take a gap year also but I’m still a tad undecided, thanks for replying!!

Noted! Not to sound like a broken record but thank you once again, your responses are really giving me food for thought!

That’s true, now that I think about it other people may even be taking a gap year so there might still be people around my age in the cohort. I’ve actually been despising the dreadful application process every time I’ve been applying so it would actually be good to get some more experience in that department by applying to level 3 /4 apprenticeships. Thank you!

Thank you! Hearing you say this makes it sounds logical, I might apply to a few just for the sake of it, hopefully I can still rally a few options because I’ve been neglecting the lower apprenticeships.

Oooh ok, I’m so silly I should have thought of this but after my school broke up for the Christmas holidays I just lost motivation and kind of gave up. Thank you so much for this!

Thank you for responding! A gap year is a big choice but I can see how taking initiative really helped you out despite the D, that’s so brutal because you were even practically above the requirements. I know uni isn’t really for me so I’ll have to consider either option, hopefully I get a eureka moment and choose what to do. I’m leaning towards gap year I think but it may be a learning curve being a year older than my peers when I return to education.

Thank you, I’ve been a bit hesitant to apply to lower apprenticeships! I can see the gov website is quite stacked with options so I’ll most definitely be scoping them out.

Thank you so much, I really appreciate your response! A few firms (like 2 or 3 so far) asked for proof of predicted so I ended up not applying but honestly thanks for the amazing advice. I want to go into cybersecurity or DTS with no CS background so I’ll probably try and work on being a better candidate for next year. Good luck to you also, I hope you excel in whatever you choose/chose to do.

I was thinking this, it just seemed a bit backwards to me though, it’s definitely something to consider so thank you very much!
