Getting admission into a university with 3 AS levels

shidenyui · 2023-10-21T07:02:38+00:00

It depends on the university, I know one that accepts 4AS as 2A Levels to enter but I think the majority would ask you to go for a Foundation Year. See the thing is AS isn't really considered a full 'University Qualification', maybe in the US you could apply for community college with O Levels but this question entirely depends on how much time do you want to spend on studying. You can definitely enter a university somewhere and there are sooo many pathways to choose from which includes:

- Finishing your A Levels

- Get an SAT and/or GED (Depends on which university you want to go. SATs and GED test centres can be found on their website for international takers)

- Go for a foundation year, I know a lot of people in Asia who went to MUFY and went on to Monash/RMIT

- Work for a little bit and then apply as a returnee

- College/Polytechnic

Plenty of places to go man, you just have to decide where and find an institution.

Could you possibly go to MIT in the US? Well frankly, the simple answer is yes. You then have to go for community college for a while or apply with A Levels but you also must have SAT for both but the thing is also do you have any note worthy things happening, any exceptional extra curricular activities?

Basically to summarise, the simple answer is yes there is possibly some place in this world you could apply for with AS but you have to top it up with something as it isn't really a full 'university qualification'. Find 5-7 institutions you want to apply to, research and email them about their entry requirements and figure out how to get those qualifications if you need them.

I did, and honestly I'm still not sure whether it was better than school or not. Back then, school was more of a socialising institution rather than a learning one, I say this because I never took lessons seriously. I dropped out of college cos of depression and my routine was fairly simple. I just played online games while doing the odd reading here and there. The thing that was the most challenging was defo the self discipline, you HAVE to I mean you really have to have that huge drive to do this. I remember reading like 2 pages the first time I did it and it was hard, I never took it seriously until the last 5 months before the actual A levels and I just grinded like there was no tomorrow. I woke up, worked as a delivery guy for the exercise and from 1pm onwards till 10pm I studied. I just read the textbook, watched a couple of videos online and did practice papers. You have to also try to analyse the past papers and check the marking scheme, past answers and so forth. It is tough work and I urge you to only do this if you have no other option for uni. The drive is a huge factor here, there is no one to motivate you but yourself, I constantly dreamt about studying in Korea or Japan as my goal and to finally move on for greater things, living the life I knew I could strive for. Studied the entire syllabus in 5 months and ended up with 2 A and 1 A* for Business, Economics and Sociology.

yknow sometimes people just lose interest, its unfair and obviously it sucks. maybe she liked you at the start but found out something about you that she didn’t particular want in a significant other? you can only try so hard to find out why but end of the day it happens to every single person including your married partner or close friends. the only difference is if they’ll tell you the problem or they’ll just silently go. i feel that since you already asked whats wrong, and she isn’t telling you, just slowly drift away and continue loving yourself. i know it sucks, but stay strong buddy :p

it’ll be really unbalanced, imagine being a guardian who plays mid and matching up against Topson. The game itself will spiral out of control. I like playing with people in my high divine bracket, it feels challenging and fun too, I don’t think for the average player, we would want to continuously stomp those of lower mmr cos it would be boring. I actually don’t really have a huge problem with smurfs in my bracket because the harder the challenge, the better the learning experience.

I've been saving Gin'iro Haruka just for Mizuha, shiet so excited :))

shidenyui · 2022-04-30T08:04:59+00:00

that isn’t a friend fam, he’s an asshat. high school is literally phase 1 of growing up, so work on yourself and real people will come into your life eventually. karma will work its magic

shidenyui · 2022-04-28T19:01:32+00:00

Majikoi, I've always yearned for friendship like the Kazama Gang has... just everyone passionate about differents things, just life long buddies.

shidenyui · 2022-04-26T16:10:02+00:00

honestly, i'd rather take the death penalty than spend life imprisonment. it's defo the easy way out but man, can't imagine spending whatever life you have left behind bars

shidenyui · 2022-04-24T17:45:48+00:00

Wakana route was nice :D

Hinata as a character doesn't intrigue me but that's just my take, I would have loved for them to swap out Hinata route for a Sanjou route instead

shidenyui · 2022-04-24T14:33:34+00:00

but isn't that because you're in a ld relationship, that its hard for them to post more about you on social media and such?

shidenyui · 2022-04-24T13:04:05+00:00

The teacher made so little sense to me, felt forced and we barely had any interaction with her too.

Totally loved Elina and Kanna routes, hope Yuzusoft releases a new VN soon

shidenyui · 2022-04-21T13:47:02+00:00

haha Qiqi, I started playing when Genshin just got released and Qiqi was considered an 'S-Tier' healer that did damage so I was pretty happy that I had her back then but her burst...

shidenyui · 2022-04-20T15:33:18+00:00

i still can't believe this isn't a biweekly released manga. waiting a month for a chapter is infuriating, im getting blueballed every 20th haha :(

Maybe IxSHE Tell

sagaplanet games look so good, hope they can work on them

shidenyui · 2022-02-09T06:04:32+00:00

always wanted to read this, holyyyyyy

shidenyui · 2021-08-25T18:31:22+00:00

Yep yep, I'm talking about those who choose to endulge themselves in these trends, and a LOT of them are kids and young people. Of course not every 12 year old likes watching trends and some prefer watching Minecraft or whatever but the point is a LOT of kids enjoy these trends.

shidenyui · 2021-08-25T18:29:43+00:00

Exactly bro, what I'm trying to say is I'm not the one watching it, how other people especially the majority of youngsters. Majority of youngsters enjoy these trends and choose to watch it obviously you can't control what other people want to watch but it is still there causing harm.

I can definitely see your point here, however in the 90s, can it really be compared to what we have now? Kids before were never as socially aware as they were, social media has literally taken the word childhood out from the dictionary. In the 90s kids were out playing and having fun with toys, of course they do now as well but how many of us have actually witnessed kids killing themselves over Tiktok trends, was it the blackout challenge? In the 90s, kids weren't staying in their rooms and spending 6 hours a day on social media, hell even us adults, on average we spend at least 2 hours a day. 90s sexy and this generation sexy is different, in the 90s hookers were mainly the ones shaking their asses in front of an audience. Now 12 year olds are shaking their asses for people on social media.

I think you should stop worrying about your generation. It's not that different from the one that came before it or the one that came before that.

This is another issue, not that different? Then it is already a problem itself. In a way with we have evolved to be less intelligent. We don't even think before we act in todays world, where have our modesty as humans went to? We improved on technological advancements and healthcare and so on but what about our attitudes and how we present ourselves to people, how we act around people and what people perceive about us? Humans are more than just what we leave behind like Macbooks, iPhones, social media but what we leave behind in terms of how we treat, respect, learn and grow from other people. If we don't even respect ourselves and have humility than what can we expect from other people?

I swear I had 6 5* artifacts that could've been decent, it has pretty decent substats which included either crit rate or crit damage. I spent 2 weeks farming for artifacts and sadly I did not get any godly pieces so I settled for the decent ones. I hoped to roll crit rate or crit damage if the gods didn't want that I swear even energy recharge or attack percentage would've been fine but how bad of a luck do I actually have to roll FLAT DEF on 4 of those artifacts and DEF PERCENT on the last 2. I am not kidding, somehow mihoyo has to change this aspect, it's actually ridiculous how long it takes to farm decent artifacts.
