After getting my A-level results last year, and not being too happy with them, I decided to take a gap year and teach myself Ancient History A-level.
Today is results day so I thought I'd film my reaction.
My firm choice was Durham University for Archaeology of the Historic World.
My insurance choice was UCL for Viking and Old Norse Studies.
I was meant to upload this video earlier but I messed up the audio, so I hope the subtitles are okay.
Let me know what results you got in the comments down below!

My results day was practically indentical, I needed A*AA but got A*AB but they thankfully still let me in. I don’t care tho cause I hate physics and it doesn’t deserve to be an A. I’m so excited to start at Durham come october 😭😭😭

@thatonecharlie 5 лет назад

Ahhh very similar! But CONGRATS!! We both still made it in! And those are still amazing grades to be proud of!

@isiali4501 5 лет назад

I’m unbelievably proud, and you should be proud too! What’s stressing me out, since I assume your in the same boat since we are both near miss candidates, is that my college won’t stay the same so I’m just constantly refreshing my emails waiting for a confirmation 😂😂

@thatonecharlie 5 лет назад

Yesss definitely! I just hope I stay in the same college! But I think we might have to wait until Monday. Good luck!!

Wow, you taught yourself ancient history A-Level and got a B?! That’s amazing! I also did Ancient History and got a B as well (with the help of my teachers of course, lol) It’s so rare to find people that have actually taken this A-Level.

@thatonecharlie 5 лет назад

Aha yeah I did, thank you! and yeah It's pretty rare to find other people who also took it. So congrats to you too. I wish I had access to a teacher, would have made life much easier :)

@ichoosenottosee6386 5 лет назад

@TheDropdeadZed 5 лет назад

Amazing job, this is relatively late I guess but I found your video when searching and clicked because Durham. I missed my offer for maths by one grade and they also let me in. Interesting to see if that's quite common from them this time around. Idk if you'll respond but what time did your track last update? Mine was like 10pm of the night before lol, so it might have been a last minute decision from them. I feel so lucky though, and so grateful I didn't have to deal with clearing or insurance accommodation.

@thatonecharlie 5 лет назад

Thank you so much. Congrats on yourself getting in too. I did think they would be quite strict with grades so maybe they had spaces left as like you my track updated about 7pm on the 14th. So it must have been quite a last minute decision, so it makes me feel very lucky also!
