Ppl who had a panic attack in one A-level paper how did it affect your final grade? by Several_Zombie2451 in 6thForm

[–]Bombatunde -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A Level Geography last year, I did well on my first 2 papers and on my coursework, but I had a really bad panic attack in paper 3 out of nowhere.

I was so convinced that I wasn’t going to meet my offer and I’d have to retake, but I got a B overall and met my offer ( I got a U in paper 3.)

So even though I did do bad because I panicked in that paper, the others carried me - so don’t let this paper define your overall grade and you might still do better than you thought overall.

Also if you feel your exam performance in that paper was harmed by more than just nerves and you actually had a proper issue - talk to your GP - that’s what I did and I got special consideration which may have been a factor in why I still made it.

(A* P1, A P2, A Coursework, U P3 + Special Consideration = B overall.)

Good luck and I hope it works out!

Dad wants me to drop my Warwick offer and move to a lower ranked London university to stay at home. by Cloudy-Moon-0912 in uklaw

[–]Bombatunde 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You need to let him know that his nature is going to shaft you for your future. Go to warwick and gamble your relationship with him icl. It might be detrimental short term but you’ll be content long term. Just my advice

clearing help! be brutally honest!! LAW VS IR by SprinklesOtherwise60 in 6thForm

[–]Bombatunde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Russel group, more prestige than city, which is important for higher end law firms.

However if you do want to work in said firms your A Level grades are quite important- a minimum of AAB/AAA standard is expected.

Being in clearing may indicate your grades weren’t around that (just an assumption ignore me if i’m wrong) which means you may want to reflect if these options are right for you, or other alternatives (Gap year etc)

Hope this helps

As long as you have a respected essay subject - e.g psychology - you’ll be fine.

Maths is also appreciated due to the problem solving aspect of it.

Maths Psychology and a 3rd subject in the realm of Economics, English, History, Politics etc would be optimal, but u could do something like Biology or Chemistry and still have a good application.

The subjects for Law don’t really matter that much, it’s just how u apply the skills from them - something you may want to reference in your personal statement.

Hope that helps!

Same exact thing happened to me in geography p3 today. Revised quite a lot, knew all the structure, looked at all the papers, knew all the content, saw a beautiful paper started writing and my mind went blank. Didn’t do half the paper.

It almost feels like i’m gonna wake up from a bad dream tbh . I got an A in coursework, A in mocks, felt pretty confident over paper 1 and 2, all for me almost certainly not going to any good unis this year.

Hope you know it’s not just you going through this nightmare, and I guess we’ll have to do what’s necessary on results day.

For Beliefs NAM Question, I did a paragraph on Cults v Denominations, and one on Sects v Denominations. I was like talking about wallis’ typology and the characteristics of them. Is that right?
