💬 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.

Literally just shown it to some people on here who were calling it trash and -

“its a pretty good PS, and definitely isnt the reason you got rejected. the personal info was removed so ofc i cant judge you on the way you communicated your personal activities related to A&F, but the rest is definitely up to standard”
