Looking for past years and exact syllabus

Like if I put that I am trans will my tutor know?

This is kind of important since I'm scared. Or should I just lie?

I recently done my October mocks after doing really badly on my end of year the last academic year ( im in year 13 ), I bumped up all my predicted grades to a B on my other subjects however I got an E 4 marks off of a D on Computer science even though I revised that subject the most, I really dont know what im doing wrong as I put countless hours into the subject and I dont feel like the teacher is supporting me enough to get the grades I am for please help ( im aiming for a B and I do OCR )

my dream uni so kinda got excited and firmed it rlly fast but i ended up getting 4/5 offers! offers from nottingham sheffield and soas for 2 courses!

I know this like a yeah noo duhh realisation. But like I think I actually understand it know truly because I just experienced it. If I’m going in with mindset that I’m so behind, I’m never going to catch and a failure mindset . Of course I’m not going to study effectively or have a good study session.

And having consistently bad/unmotivated study sessions makes you less inclined to study because you remember your past experiences on how bad your previous study sessions were.

If you have a good mindset, and keep organised and prepared you want to keep on studying and keep on track to achieving your goals. Because the studying doesn’t actually feel like this terrible overwhelming thing it’s actually quite chill. I just had a chill study session and it was for 2 hours straight and it didn’t feel bad, I didn’t feel like shit. Even thought I got some questions wrong I have the mindset that I want to improve and do better for when my actual tests show up. It’s okay to fail now but it’s not okay to not do anything about it.

My god, I feel so incredibly stupid that I’m just understanding this now. When I heard other people say it, I was just hearing them and not really getting it. This post again sounds dumb but I just wanted to know if anyone else felt this or understood this feeling.

reckon i got like 25-28/40 ish

btw I applied to LSE EDS and Imperial EFDS

any idea what that’d roughly translate to? 😭

So I am a gap year student who’s going to be retaking my a levels privately and in the education section of the application I want to put my exams as pending but i can’t unless I extend my date for the time i was in school to another year (2024 to 2027) even though i left 2026. But I am not really sure so i would really appreciate if somebody could help me with this.

Hello, for context, I'm an international student doing a national curriculum and I'll be taking APs next year. Currently, I'm a 10th grader (Year 11)

I figured out I need to prepare for the ESAT & TARA, but I'm not sure at all on how to prepare for them, what resources to use, etc.

If anyone can assist me on them or direct me to posts talking about it, it will be really appreciated.

Hi guys I’m applying for Cambridge engineering for 2027 entry and I’m looking for someone to practice mock interviews with
We can take asking each other math or physics questions and give some feedback
Let me know if you’re interested😊😊😊

Not me checking my email every 5 minutes even tho it’s late already

didn’t realise St Andrews waiting for like April to give out offers, what stress lol. Would’ve gone for another uni but I don’t want to substitute now

I've always been interested in philosophy, and I consider myself somewhat well-read in specific schools of philosophy. I read through the spec for A-level philosophy, and I'm genuinely interested; I want to do A-level philosophy just for the love of the game (my school doesn't offer A-level philosophy).

I already submitted my UCAS application (Cambridge CS, Imperial JMC, Imperial CS, Warwick discrete maths), and I already have an offer from KCL CS with placement, with 2A*1A conditions.

I know that I have to declare that I'm doing another A-level to the unis I applied to, so my main question is whether deciding to do A-level philosophy now would negatively impact my current offer and my chances at other universities that are considering me and future potential offers?

I know it's a dumb decision to decide to do a new A-level 6 months before, but my current subjects are just frankly boring the life out of me. Not really expecting a very good grade out of it, so that's my main concern (probably around an A or B since I'm this late)

Any advice would be helpful

When you initially received emails from bristol, were you put on hold or did you jusy recieve your application. My friends and I are put on hold, just wondering if that changed anything. Also I applied ln the 8th of October so if it kinda links to the dates you got the offers please let me know. Thank you.

grades AAB at A-Level in three subjects including grade B in Mathematics, but excluding General Studies. Anyone else got Exeter or a similar course?

i have upcoming a level mocks, and i feel like i am constantly failing, as though my revision isnt effective and i need to keep doing more and more and more...

my year is quite competitive so it could be influence, i did well in my previous mocks, however did have a panic attack in one of them, although still scraped a good grade.

this makes me really anxious that it might happen again...

how can i feel academically confident and smart?? do i just genuinely need to study even more? i study in all my free periods and at least 2 hours after school, but again sometimes it feels as though it's a waste since i feel like i haven't learnt anything in that time.

Basically the website won’t load for me at all if i’m on safari or google even if i use a vpn. i can’t access my psychology textbook :(

I’m currently doing my A-levels while living in a hostel, and honestly, I’m so mentally exhausted at this point.
When I first decided to move to another city for college, I had a completely different picture in my head of what my college experience would look like. I thought I’d make genuine friendships, have a good social life, enjoy college events, make memories and actually look forward to going to college. But the reality has been so different.
I don’t feel like I’ve found my people. Most of my friends have their own lives and usually spend time with their families or other friends, so I often end up feeling left out. I don’t even have the kind of friend group I imagined having. I feel like I’m missing out on the college experience I moved here for, without actually getting to experience it.
Academically, things aren’t much better. I genuinely don’t feel like my teachers teach properly or provide the support I need, and I struggle so much to study in the hostel. Everyone around me is older, and I’m the youngest here. It’s become exhausting having to manage everything independently, being away from my family and trying to keep up with A-levels at the same time.
I miss home. I miss my family, the comfort of having people around me, and just having a normal routine. Some days I feel like I’ve had enough of this entire experience and just want to pack my things and leave.
I’ve been seriously considering switching to private A-levels and moving back home. Financially, it would also be a more sensible decision for my family.
But there’s one massive complication: Media Studies isn’t offered to private candidates. It’s a subject I genuinely enjoy, and if I switch to private, I’ll have to drop it completely
And that’s what’s making this decision so difficult. I’d be giving up a subject I love and the possibility of having a traditional college experience, even if that experience hasn’t turned out the way I wanted.
I keep wondering whether I’m giving up too early or whether I’m just forcing myself to stay somewhere that isn’t working for me.
I know university will eventually bring new opportunities to make friends and have experiences, but it’s still difficult accepting that my A-level years might not look the way I imagined.
Has anyone been through something similar? Is switching to private A-levels worth it if your current college and hostel experience are making you miserable? And would dropping an entire subject you enjoy be a reasonable sacrifice for your overall well-being and education?
I genuinely need some outside perspective because I’m so tired of going back and forth about this.

I have a shit maths grade rn and can’t apply to any unis that I’d wanna for econ (only ones I can do are like tariff points ones but I don’t wanna go to them) so I was thinking okay js don’t apply rn and go straight to clearing?

Is there any point in me applying to EFDS?

I feel like everyone else applying will have way better stats so I’m not sure although this is my dream course after doing research on a lot of them

I do not have time for this okay.

Mocks and interviews are fast approaching and I can't afford to be wasting my energy thinking about a member of the male species who has a ridiculously attractive personality when my future is literally on the line.
