Congratulations on all the unis you got into and your GCSE resit!! Obviously it's a bummer about Bath especially with it being dragged out but you should definitely be so proud of yourself!!
Congrats on the offers you got, I'm applying right now from the USA. I genuinely think you have potential as a RU-vidr too your style is very entertaining
Tom, congratulations for both your university offers and exceeding your expectations for English!! Well done lad! I can relate to living in an area where most people don't go very far and accepting that if I wanted to be successful, I'd have to apply myself to everything that I did 👏👏
Appreciated! Yeah, my main take is I guess to get a different result you’ve gotta be different. Welldone for applying yourself too lad. Keep going, Wish u the best in the future :)
congrats! i also had to wait 6 months to get rejected from one of my top choices (st andrews) and it was the most annoying thing ever. I also have an offer from Exeter and its my insurance! Good luck with uni
I did really like St Andrews before I realised how hyper competitive it was then ruled it out. I appreciate the comments like this means a lot! Congrats on the offers you did get and once again everything happens for a reason, so like cause and effect :) Good luck with uni too!
Thoroughly enjoyed that. Choosing between Loughborough and Exeter seems like a close enough call that you should probably just think which feels most like ‘home for three years’? Bath Spa was an interesting outlier - did you fall in love with the city of Bath generally, or with the really chill campus location?
I did really come to like the thought of living in Bath, but as a mini update , I have chosen to firm Loughborough and because of my grace being backed by both exams and coursework, it’s a near impossibility I don’t reach their requirements. So Exeter being a secondary option is irrelevant. I have however, opted for a gap year and will go to uni in 2024. :)) Thankyou for your comment Richard !
fair play man congrats. i also studied a BTEC, in IT. tbh i thought universities wouldnt even look at my application but when i got tripple D* and thats equivelent to 3 A* at A level i was shocked lmao. im also now doing my A level maths as i need it for computer science at Uni, hoping to get into a good uni like u.
I got rejected from Bath for an A*AA course (Civil Engineering) when I had A* Maths, A*Physics but a B in Fine Art. I decided to do a gap year and reapply the following year. (I also retook Fine Art as a backup because I was really set on going to Bath. I got accepted last year when I got an A in Fine Art but also know many people on my course who got in with lower grades. If you definitely want to go to Bath I'd think about reapplying if you are doing a gap year anyway. Good luck!
Congratulations 🎉 I applied for Pharmacy and I got 5/5 rejections 🥹 and I am waiting until September or October for my access course results to come out so that I can apply in clearing 😥 Wish me luck guys 😭💝
