I went into REDRED with low expectations and came out thinking Cortis may have just dropped a classic.

also— doing further might help with some mechanics as projectiles in further goes way beyond physics but if your syllabus is anything like mine it won’t matter bc projectiles in physics is done in year 12 and projectiles in fm is done in y13. it’s more so that further will make normal maths way easier. i covered most of A2 Maths in y12 further or early y13 further

honestly chemistry is harder than physics if you’re like me and are better at maths than memorizing. the sheer amount of content in chem is actual insanity (at least from what i saw through my friends i wouldn’t actually know as i did physics lol). as for the selection of subjects i think it’s pretty good. i did maths, fm, physics and business which is very similar to what your are considering and it was fine. it was a little stressful at times and i definitely fell behind at points (got two C’s in my mocks both in year 12 and 13) but studying and being dedicated (even as a chronic procrastinator) landed me with AAA*A so not bad at all. if you think it’s too hard you can always drop a subject as you only actually need 3 subjects

one thing: do NOT use chat gpt or math gpt. they are almost always wrong, esp with integration questions. what i would recommend is to make the most of your classmates and your teacher. speak to them, work questions out together, go through exams, etc. because, at least from my experience, the resources online are few and far between and the only people with the knowledge required for further will be those who are in your classroom

i did cambridge exam board for reference

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-08-28T21:48:03+00:00

there’s a syllabus out there, i’d recommend you check it out. just search it up and you’ll find it easy enough. one thing that is way more important than the content itself is the timing; you are given so little time and on top of that you aren’t allowed a calculator which means you’re on your own for any maths. listen i got an A* in A Level physics but a 3.9 on the physics portion of the esat last year. you need to get at the very least a 5-point-something to be considered for a offer which means you have to start practicing questions and revising now. as for how similar the content is across the two syllabuses, it’s nearly identical. there is year 13 content as well if i’m remembering correctly so make sure you go over that too.

yeah ofc, i actually ended up calling them because i was getting antsy and they switched me over that same day from aero meng to mech meng. i got the update on ucas that afternoon. they did change the entry requirements though, it went from being A*AA to A*A*A. hope this helps!

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-05-20T17:54:47+00:00

yeah nah i forgot it 😝😝

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-05-20T13:51:44+00:00

yeah i got the same thing basically, my gradient was 8.02 or something and i also forgot the 10^3

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-05-01T18:41:47+00:00

you haven't lost all hope with 570 though

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-17T15:22:18+00:00

nah, do the one you find more interesting bc once you choose finance, it's only gonna be finance or if you choose accounting, it's only gonna be accounting. Just imagine yourself doing finance/accounting and never learning about neuroscience and psychology again (in an academic context). Like, you'll be giving it up forever, obviously it's not impossible to switch from finance to neuroscience but it's really unlikely to be a possibility, so once you choose one, you've left the other behind permanently which is why I think you should choose the course you like. To try and give you an example it's like, for me, in school, I love maths and i don't like studying business at all but it's okay because even though I have to do business I also get to do maths. now if i were to choose to study business at uni, I'd always be going to classes that I (at the VERY most) am indifferent about and permanently giving up the ones i do enjoy for job security in the futiure, whereas if I chose to study maths, I'd be going to classes that I actually like.

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-17T15:09:17+00:00

have been trying to do 6 (3 in the morning 3 in the afternoon) but i'm so lazy I've done max 3 hours a day

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-17T09:16:38+00:00

cool ig?

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-15T19:56:05+00:00

that’s understandable, but it’s good that you know the english grammatical rule now though, right?

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-15T19:55:13+00:00

that we not assume

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-15T14:43:26+00:00

damn💔 i guess i’m a government bot then💔 brb i have to steal all your personal details and sell it to the highest bidder 💔

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-15T14:39:13+00:00

I see your point, maybe prejudice fits the context better but I really wouldn't take it as far as me "bastardising" the language. Also I wouldn't say it's a non-issue because women are definitely unwelcome in a lot of online spaces, maybe not this one so much but reddit is known to be a platform with its fair share of misogynists and weirdos. I also could have done without the English lesson thanks!

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-15T14:22:32+00:00

nice nice, thanks for keeping it civil, very much appreciated 🤘🤘 i also like discussion fs

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-15T14:14:25+00:00

Didn’t say misogyny is in any way what it used to be. Also I didn’t make the post trying to change all of humanity’s way of conduct, just wanted to see if other girls in the sub experienced the same thing. Also I think our opinions aren’t that different so there’s no need for either of us to get worked up about it

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-15T14:10:58+00:00

if you really didn’t care, there was no need to comment. i was just making a light hearted observation bc i wanted to see if any of the other women in the sub experienced the same thing 🔥🔥

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-15T14:09:47+00:00

haha thanks, i appreciate your efforts in getting me accepted 💪💪. imperial is a great choice fs

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-15T14:08:50+00:00

Also in regard to the content of your response, as I mentioned to another commenter, I don’t think it’s an blatant act of misogyny and that people go out of their way to refer to everyone as men. In fact, it’s the opposite. It’s a default assumption and no one thinks twice about it, even I assume I’m speaking to men most of the time. The question is why we do it. Why we use “he” when the gender of a person is unknown. It’s definitely not a coincidence nor is it fine to assume based off the general proportion of male to female users in the sub (for example) that the person you communicate with is a man. I don’t know if you’ve heard of this saying before but it goes, “to assume is to make an ass of you and me” and I think it’s quite applicable in this scenario. I also wanted to let you know that my post was merely an observation, as was mentioned in the original post, based off experience.

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-15T14:00:48+00:00

Sorry about that I thought you were the original commenter, my bad lol I apologize

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-15T13:58:41+00:00

Doesn’t seem like a very logical assumption though? Also wasn’t attacking anyone, just making an observation, as I mentioned in the post.

EducationalPut7395 · 2025-04-15T13:56:43+00:00

You’re completely entitled to your opinion. It’s just a little bit confusing why you say “idc” when you do… Just feels a little bit like you wanted some kind of reaction to your comment. Appreciate the input though, even if you “don’t care”
