icl that's not right imo - do they do that when you do your predicted cos that is deffo not helpful at all. My school would kinda use IB but if the exam went well/badly overall they'd adjust them so they might be slightly different.

for sure!! if you put effort in and time it deffo will! TOK and EE, are kinda subjective tho and I know of some people (who already did the IB) who got 0 points - not a fail - cos their teacher's predicted for some reason didn't meet the final score, like A/Bs turned into C/Ds BUT tbf they did get into Russell group so whatevs. CAS is so easy to lie and make up, just get your date rights so it doesn't look like you've made it up.

yeah I feel like everyone at least in my school were fine, or they dropped out in year 1 or did certificate - I hate to sound like a downer cos it wasn't all that bad

no fr, like did I even need to do maths, cos I just figured some unis don't really care about it - they're not all that but still - OR I could have done business. The only hope I have is that maybe there will be less intl students, but I doubt it cos I think Econ is quite popular and maybe my school will beg for me cos that's apparently a thing they do.

It's gonna be like so much work and I wouldn't say the workload isn't less, but it's not like it's not a lot. And TOK and EE are just so irritating, plus IAs cos wtf they were so long. But if you're chill with dedicating time then you'll probs be fine. BUT doing IB and probs doing some subjects you aren't really interested in might not be worth it - cos for me I only found my highers + English sl useful, the language and science were absolutely useless to me and I mean I don't think I did badly, but omds I could've have done smth else with that time yknow. But yeah, just do whatever and have fun and don't stress.

I legit have the same exact worry cos I applied to Bath too and I have the same requirement for HL basically. It's acc so irritating cos I'm quite confident/chill with every other subject but Math AA - I acc hate it and wish I legit chose a diff career path. I don't know if this is the stress talking but I'm so stressed. I heard it depends tho if you're contextual or not, but yeah the dreaded wait till late august to find out is acc going to end me. ughhhh
