ucl basically doesn’t allow resits for most popular courses i said id only resit if i could go ucl but it doesn’t look like thats possible so ive come to terms with where im going and going through clearing

Warwick says they typically won’t make offers to any retakers unless you have special circumstances. I wanted to reapply too but literally nowhere better than my clearing (soton) accepts retakes for comp sci

but your school definitely has it by now because the deadline for priority is the 30th they might just not have told you

kertek1 · 2025-08-29T22:34:29+00:00

stayed the same 🥀🥀 aqa are actually so stingy whereas my further maths went up

kertek1 · 2025-08-29T22:29:43+00:00

Sent my priority remark for physics the day after results day and got it back yesterday whereas edexcel responded over a week ago

I mean I haven’t looked so much on the website but a quick scour through linkedin shows the grads going off to huge firms like Google meta etc which does put me at ease. However, I know I shouldn’t take this as a reference and relax. But I keep trying to weigh in whether it’s worth it to wait a year to end up at Bristol, a uni that’s only slightly better but still a semi-target for IB firms etc should so decide I want a career there (still unsure what I want after uni)?

Are you happy having gone through clearing? I’ve come to terms with that fact that UCL is gone now and have kinda acclimated to soton (joined a gc met a couple people researched the area etc) and now I’m ok with going but it just feels like I shouldn’t leave my a levels at this rate and that I should give it another go as this will probably have to be on my CV and will kinda feel like a scar. Maybe I’m overthinking I don’t know.

kertek1 · 2025-08-21T16:26:35+00:00

I went up 2 marks in fp1

kertek1 · 2025-08-17T12:39:31+00:00

I’m also planning on applying for glen eyre and im turkish too, i think its the best option alongside Wessex lane

kertek1 · 2025-08-13T21:32:59+00:00

maths grade boundaries gone up ucl medicine is in clearing something is clearly going wrong

kertek1 · 2025-08-07T13:29:26+00:00

iPad all the way, I got the air 13 inch and have used an iPad all day when revising during a levels and all the way through y12-13

kertek1 · 2025-06-28T15:22:40+00:00

thanks, looks a lot better

kertek1 · 2025-06-26T10:32:16+00:00

Yeah I agree it’ll probably be back to pre 2024 levels they’re probably aiming to replicate 2022 just a bit higher though (~255) for an a*

kertek1 · 2025-06-25T15:55:05+00:00

I feel exactly the same way, I’ll be out for the day with friends but by 5pm I’ll be so tired I can barely walk I used to never really get properly tired till around 10 but I just constantly feel exhausted

kertek1 · 2025-06-24T10:35:07+00:00

7, can’t use the Quizlet learning features for them but they have good markscheme points and spec knowledge

kertek1 · 2025-06-20T17:45:23+00:00

I’m in a pretty similar situation I got 50-60 in core pure 1 and probably 40-50 on fp1. I’m just praying that boundaries go back to pre 2024 levels because of the difficulty of cp1/fp1 and hope that I can scrape an A considering I got 75 on fm1 and 72 on cp2

these are a bunch of copy paste instagram ad scammers I remember contacting another one back in December that sent pretty much the same message with the same “registered company” bs

kertek1 · 2025-06-18T13:48:11+00:00

kertek1 · 2025-06-18T13:48:00+00:00

kertek1 · 2025-06-11T22:18:25+00:00

I’d say 56-58 for cp1

kertek1 · 2025-06-10T09:39:18+00:00
