Videos like this one are so useful, showing that you can still go on to do amazing things even with lower grades than you hoped for. Sometimes you just need a university to take a chance on you. Y12 and Y13s have had so much to deal with this year. Hopefully exam boards and universities will be understanding next year.

I can relate so much with your oxford journey!! I got DBB in a levels (Music, Lit, philosophy) because I could never afford music lessons, so I was years behind the average person my age. My music grade affected my other subjects and I failed in all aspects of music. It's a very classist subject in a way. In the end I DID get into a conservatoire, with a foundation year (which I am doing right now) + my gap year (I taught myself theory etc). People from our backgrounds have to squeeze into elite spaces however we can, but at least we can (kind of)! It's definitely hard being the only poor person around (and immigrant), but someone has to do it !

Vee, when I entered the University of Ottawa in the mid 1990s, I had a B average too which was from 70-79% which I needed to enter that university. To enter for my MA in Classical Studies at the Open University, I needed a 2:1 average. I received a Magna Cum Laude for my BA in Classics at the University of Ottawa in Canada and I had the grade to be admitted.

So we've got primary school from age 4-11 and then secondary school from 11-16. College is right after secondary school and it's generally for 2 years (if you failed maths/english in the final exams in secondary, then you might have to do 3 years). Anyways A Levels are what people do at college in these 2 or 3 years. Usually 3 subjects so for e.g. I did Maths, Chemistry and Biology. Whatever grades you get at the end of college determines your place at uni. So, I think Vee said she got 3 B's for her college subjects and still managed to get into oxford and harvard and thats not the norm because oxford usually requires A*/A's from college. Alot of the entry requirements for oxford are A*AA (these 3 grades being your college subjects). I hope that clears things up:) have an amazing week🥰
