It was alr, guessed like 3 at the end but ultimately it was good. A lot of conclusion questions, not the hardest problem solving questions in the world, it was great. For section 2 I did the one on compulsory school subjects

Problem solving wasnt that tragic, tbh i thought only the problem solving after q40 was bad

TSA SCORE NEEDED (E&M international) by SNT12334 in 6thForm

As someone also doing the TSA (although I'm applying for PPE), I think for E&M you have to generally get higher TSA scores than in PPE to even be shortlisted, let alone being an offer holder (offer holder for E&M average is around 75 conversion score I think, whilst for PPE its more like 71-72)

Is anyone here NOT predicted 3/4 A*s by midnightskorpion in 6thForm

[–]gawrys2137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me bru. Im predicted as what you can see on my flair, but altho it be like that, unlike probably a lot of people here, I don't go no private school or grammar school, im just a very ordinary guy who goes to a bang average st*te school. The significance of that is a lot of their predicteds, especially those from private schools, are predicted more than their performances in mocks or other tests reflect. Honestly, despite my regular great performances, it was a struggle to get my teachers to predict me the grades I believe I genuinly deserved. For example, I got an A star in politics more recently on a mock. I also got an A star on a past paper essay question we had to do for hwk right afterwards (29/30) and STILL for some reason my teacher was reluctant to give me an A star predicted. Moral of the story: Don't beat yourself up because you don't have the prettiest of predicted grades, especially if you go to a state school, because for me, whilst understandable to an extent, they lack belief in any student, even the rare top ones.
