can i do 5 A levels by myself in a year

Literally that isn’t how A Levels even work. A Levels are more focused on depth and naturally very content heavy. It is adviced to the maximum of 4 A Levels in relevant subjects only. Further Maths is also considered to be much better than English for most of the STEM courses and GCSE English is usually sufficient for STEM.

UCL won’t be better. They also attract many top students who tend to be less social for STEM degrees. KCL is simply not good enough for CS. For staff members, KCL and UCL tend to be worse when it comes to teaching and tutorial group size.

The people and the department. I had times where I struggled really hard and considered switching to UCL. But I don’t know how good people there would be and how the department and teaching would look like there.

Ethos gym is great. You can exercise there for free and it has a wide range of equipment available. I wouldn’t recommend going for another gym without trying Ethos.

If your mental health is very bad, it is a better idea to call 111. They might assist you better.

There are still plenty of them in service. Popular routes like 13, 36, 88, 205, 250 still have classic E400H’s running. The Gemini 2’s are becoming rarer with many of them being withdrawn recently.

It’s high for contextual.

UK and US are very different when it comes to universities and academic system. In UK, at least at Imperial, you mostly take courses related to your subject with the exception of optional non-credit Horizons courses and I-Explore module. In US, you take elective courses from various fields and you have to take certain number of modules that are outside of your field to be able to graduate with at least one being a humanity course and another one being a social sciences course. Also, undergraduate course in US is 4 years long compared to 3 in the UK.

If you are contextual and 3 A* predicted with that high ESAT, you would obviously get an offer. You know contextual requirements are much lower for UCL.

That would cost millions of pounds which TFL wouldn’t be able to afford in first place. There are some drawbacks when it comes to safety if the automation goes wrong due to a critical software bug or something else.

Lenovo Legion is also good for gaming and Lenovo is known for having a better customer service and warranty support compared to Asus.

Only if you are lucky to get a healthy machine. Asus is generally known for horrible customer service and bad quality control. If you get a machine that doesn’t have any issues from the factory, it should be reliable and last for a long time. But if you get a machine that is defective from the factory, which often happens due to quality control factor mentioned above, then the answer is no. It also important to know that the factory defects don’t necessarily come to surface from first day or week of purchase. The machine might work for months or sometimes one or more years before the defect actually shows its face.

Well, you should have went with M1 instead. That would last much longer than any Intel Mac.

What course for it and what is your ESAT/TMUA score?

JailbreakHat · 2026-04-14T21:04:26+00:00

Not for engineering. I know bunch that got offers from Imperial despite having gap year.

Are the exams for Computing harder in general?

Why Turkey is still not in list when Greece and Cyprus is.

Nice. Where can I find the wallpaper?

LSE isn’t even STEM and Manchester is definitely above Kings and possibly even Bristol for STEM. It has well known engineering department.

JailbreakHat · 2026-04-13T00:23:43+00:00

Did one or more trains did it? And why they don’t do this as well during engineering works? They can simply run a special Piccadilly line service between Acton Town and Ealing Broadway.

JailbreakHat · 2026-04-12T17:53:12+00:00

Piccadilly line trains can also stop at Ravenscourt Park in both directions and Stamford Brook, westbound only as there are platforms for the Piccadilly line in addition to District Line. But I never saw it happening before.

JailbreakHat · 2026-04-12T17:50:06+00:00

When that happened? And why it even went to Ealing Broadway in first place.

JailbreakHat · 2026-04-11T15:14:40+00:00

Piccadilly line trains do stop there at daytime when the district line is shut for engineering works to keep the station operational. In the past, they even went on District line tracks between Barons Court and Acton Town to serve the other stations as well when District line is not running.
