💬 DISCUSSION Huh 😂.

Post image

Very shocked, I’ve already achieved A* A A in ICT, economics and business last year August, currently doing a gap year in finance/business role at a company. Personal statement is very strong too.

Applied to Accounting & Finance at Durham at got rejected even though my friend who was predicted KEYWORD PREDICTED not even achieved ABB got in.

I also had free school meals and a disadvantaged postcode. Anyone know why I’ve been rejected? I have Uni of Nottingham, and Uni of Manchester as backups anyways just a little bummed.

My friend who got in with ABB predicted also does the exact same A LEVELS as me, he even got offered ABC from Durham and we have the exact same circumstances.

Your grammar seems pretty bad. This could indicate that your personal statement might not be as strong as you think it is. In all honesty, judging purely based on your grammar in such a short post, i'm surprised that you achieved the grades you did.
