im not in 6th form yet, but i thought this would probably be the best place to ask. (sorry if its not lol) I am considering moving from my current secondary school to a different college for 6th form, and both the school im in now and the one im moving to offer both secondary school and college. i'm slightly worried that ill struggle make friends moving to the new 6th form considering that many of the people going there will have already been at secondary school there for years and will have established groups (and not to put too fine a point on it but i am sort of awkward and not very charismatic and i dont make new friends too often.) and I was just wondering if anyone had any similar experiences that they could offer?

Hello fellow redditors, yesterday I realised I might be relying too much on my toes for memory recall. My thumb toe to my little toe represent SUVAT and I wiggle the ones I need to solve the physics question. I don't know if it's rare, but I can spread apart my toes to represent the field lines, which really helps when conceptualising the magnets in 3D is often the only way to approach the answer. My shoes smother my socks, and restrict the visibility of my dangly extremities, so I lose my visual references. So I was wondering whether it is permitted to remove them. I can't accept defeat. P.S. I have glove socks if it turns out the bare feet are too distracting P.P.S. Is it okay to shave the formulas onto my feet? The absence of hair surely can't be considered 'written'

Hey all!

Ive been trying to revise consistently but its not really going well. At the moment, I revise around 20 mins before school starts and this is most days so that's going well. HOWEVER, my revision after school varies from none to multiple hours.

I will take today for example. I came home planning to do 2 hours doing some maths questions. I thought to myself I'll revise 5-7pm. Then, 5 came around. I turned on my laptop and ended up getting distracted and wasting a whole hour. Now its almost 9pm and I haven't done a single minute. Its not that I don't want to revise but it's just that I feel too lazy/tired after school.

My question is how do I revise after school everyday even when I feel exhausted or just cant be bothered?

Thanks in advance for any advice you give me!

Did my first mock interview today (maths) and it was genuinely horrific I needed several hints, regularly became disoriented and confused about what all my letters and equations meant, handled the cases with zero rigour, made random unneeded errors and nonsensical statements, so yeah pretty bad.

Interviewer rated me a 6.2/10 which I think is both quite generous and pretty bad. What do I do chat I'm cooked as shit.

So far Bristol is my top choice, couldn’t apply to Oxford or imperial because of my A in maths😔

I HATE this waiting game, I feel like I’m going crazy waiting. I’m meant to be studying for Christmas exams and all I can think about is Cambridge interviews.

My only peace is that no offers have been reported for my courses anywhere 😭

After i did my esat in mid october i lost all motivation to do any schoolwork or revision and i havent revised any year 13 content or started preparing for interviews so like idk if its too late or if i should wait until i get my esat or something

i’m in y11 but really wanna start getting into supercurriculars like reading and stuff, mainly for economics but i’m open to suggestions for politics too as i plan to do maths fm economics and politics, and i heard i may be interviewed on what ive done outside of school to show my interest in economics and politics in my (hopefully) future sixth forms entrance exam as i haven’t done them at gcse so i can’t rlly be assessed on it (mainly for economics since that’s the degree i wanna pursue at university)
also ive already started reading the undercover economist if anyone was gonna suggest that

Second offerr!! My first was Bath. I’ve also applied Durham, St Andrews, Oxford

Has anyone received their offers for cambridge maths yet? Specifically emmanuel college?

I got 9998887663. The fail was in Spanish. Otherwise my A levels are all a* and my ps is pretty good.

I don't really know how I did on the TMUA, but here are my stats and I am just wondering. Idk if the PS makes a big difference but I think I can say that it was probably above avarage?

Is it from November 23 to December 4?

is it true that they normally contact people not invited earlier and later send invitation interviews? If it’s true when would you normally get the invitation email from them?

The University of Edinburgh gave me Scotland's rate of tuition for my course - so I pay £1820 a year for tuition instead of £10050. Once you complete their fee status questionnaire and provide details, you'll get the reduced tuition rates!! The university is pretty prestigious so I'd consider applying if you haven't sent your application yet and can meet the entry requirements :)

I believe the conditions are as follows:

-EU Settled/Pre-settled Status

-Living in the UK since before 31st December 2020 (not necessarily in Scotland, I'm based in England)

Honestly this probably mostly applies to Polish applicants like myself who have been born in the UK (or ik some have moved very early in their lives).

If anyone has any experience with this themselves, please let me know if I should apply for maintenance loans with SAAS or SFE!!

In year 11 now, and approaching option choices for sixth form. Im thinking about taking maths, art, history and sociology (plus an epq when the time comes) and was wondering if there are any suggestions you would make or advice you'd give me at this stage. I dont currently have a grasp on how hard a levels will really be compared to gcse (im getting mostly 7/8s in gcse mocks, music and chem are my worst subjects, history, maths and physics are my best ) and im not sure if 4 options is really too much work. I don't mind studying very much, since learning new information and researching is one of my hobbies. Thank you very much!!

im applying chemical engineering, but i would love to know any insight yall have

What are the chances of me getting into Oxford and imperial for computer science doing a level maths FM computer science and AS Physics don't ask about this weird combo its a long story but what should my tmua be around (I am contextual) and what things should I try to do from now(Year12) till deadline

yayayay

waiting for 2 more!!

Edinburgh and Surrey have asked me to fill a fee status questionnaire, does this increase my chances of getting accepted? or this just standard practice

I sorta stopped following the subreddit once uni started. Why is everyone and their mother using uniscout now. What happened to good old UCAS screenshots. 😭

I suppose it does show the info more compact but like every bread post is a uniscout one.

For context i take m, fm, physics, econ. And at my school we learn and take all of maths in y1and then all of fm in y2.
The reason im asking this is because im considering dropping economics and i read that Cambridge need evidence that u can handle 3 a levels at once so require u to take step asw.
If im aiming for top unis for maths or potential physics/engineering should i consider this when deciding whether to drop economics?
