I find it INSANE how people lie about their ucat scores just deter people from applying to universities and these are the same people who are supposed to become β€œdoctors” and care for the vulnerable???

I received a rejection from LSE but I thought they did their offers later in the year… Should I ask them why I received one so early or is this normal?

Original Choices:
Cambridge CS, Imperial JMC, Bristol JMC, Warwick discrete maths, Royal Holloway JMC

I did my TMUA on 15/10 and genuinely think I messed up (Fried P1 but had a comeback on P2 but still made some careless mistakes). Got desperate and substituted Royal Holloway for Imperial CS (for lower requirements on TMUA and Bristol JMC for KCL CS on the 16th.

My GCSEs are mid asf (10 grade 7-9), so olympiads and competitions might've carried on PS.

I completed the "My Cambridge application" form 4 hours and 27 minutes late and emailed Clare College immediately of my extenuating cirumstances. My form still sent through and got an email saying it was completed and they recieved it, but it also said it was past the deadline. It did not specify if my application was going to be carried forwards or not. I am actually hyperventilating. Please! Someone respond!!

πŸ’¬ DISCUSSION Exhaustion from Y13

5 Upvotes

Just wanted to make this post to see if anyone feels the same.
As someone who has had one month so far or half a term of y13 and applied to Russel group unis requiring an early applicant ucas submission by the 15 Oct, High predicted grades that needed to be secured, and an entrance test, I’ve found that I have genuinely become obsessed during that period

I am on half term now but have soo much revision to do due to neglecting my work over the last month in order to prioritise my ucas submission and entrance test preparation. I find that I have isolated myself from doing my homely chores and even my family members as I have been focused on my work.
I will admit I have spent most of the time procrastinating preparing for my ucas submission which led to me becoming even more stressed as I hadn’t started so when I actually did put in the work I was working under a tight deadline.
Even in school I would spend more time in the library, less with friends and even on weekends go out less.
I felt fatigued,exhausted,tired, I remember I got into a cycle of getting 4-5 hours of sleep everyday for a week and even one day less than 2 hours of sleep(pure procrastination due to having lots of homework that I put off to procrastinate working on my ucas submission and entrance test preparation) to the point where I would go to school and leave early and I remember actually getting in trouble with my teacher and department of my a level subject as it was an important feedback on tests lesson but I decided not to stay I had under or just 4 hours of sleep.

Anyways safe to say, such a period is over thank God and it was truly an overwhelming experience, now I have rested for about 4 days during my half term and now face reading 6 books for coursework,catching up on homework,learning from my mistakes in my tests,and creating new revision for the content learnt in the first month of y13 whilst studying and finishing creating revision for the y12 content for my mocks coming up.

Just wondering if anyone else went through an absolute treacherous experience during the first month of y13 as an early applicant who also had to sit an entrance test…

πŸ™ I WANT HELP terrified i should drop fm

4 Upvotes

for context im a pretty good maths students. i got a 9 in normal, 8 in further and 90% in my induction test. i understand stats and pure, and my teachers for those are nice.

my mech teacher is a very grumpy 'wise' guy. said he knows your grade from the way you walk in on day 1. he taught me in year 7 to year 11 and long story short think im an absolute dumbass.

we js did chapter 9 as (constant accelration and suvat stuff). im fine w the maths part - i can derive all the equations and i understand all of it, but when it comes to questions i completely misinterpret it and work out the wrong thing entirely. tried to do a bunch of practice questions but never managed to get it to click.

had a test on it, walked out thinking i did alright and turns out i got 57%. never had below 75 so it was a bit jarring. havent gotten it back yet so can't say i know fs where i went wrong but im pretty sure its due to afformentioned. talking to people in my class, a handful of people (like 1/3rd) got 80, but met many who were around 60-70, met some who got 40 asw. before the test he said if you get anything below 80 you can kiss an a* goodbye.

ofc im sure hes overreacting, but i am a bit scared that i made the wrong decision with further maths, any reassurance of similar stories as hope would be appreciated, or any tips (or brutal honesty if i should just drop it haha)

πŸ™ I WANT HELP Step and tmua on ucas

4 Upvotes

I sent off my ucas application for maths at cambridge imperial ucl and warwick (and jmc at imperial) 2 weeks ago, i put my alevels and gcses as qualifications. i was recently looking at some of my courses and i decided to ask ai if everyone gets step in their offer bc some of the unis don’t require it but you can use it for lower alevel grades. Ai said that not everyone gets it and to inform the uni. i have to add it to my ucas application or send an email specific to the university. it said i can add a qualification of step after i sent it off. does step count as a qualification and is that rly what i am supposed to do. i don’t rly want to do smth bc ai told me to so what do i do?

for some context I took a gap year and planned to reapply to medicine after missing the grades, decided it wasn’t for me and I am now applying for neuroscience

I’m still applying with my old sixthform and they said they’re handing in my old reference, is anyone asking their teachers to add on a bit about resitting or gap year or nah??
