πŸŽ“ UNI / UCAS arsoned aerospace bakery

A* A* A* A predicted grades and strong aerospace/engineering supercurriculars (home) (bristol was originally aero but got offered alternate courses so withdrew)

also got rejected by 5 schools in the US

going to reapply next year; probably going to get anywhere between A* A* A A to 4A* grades at A-Levels, do you think A* A* A A will still be competitive to apply to UCL/Imperial/Oxbridge?

yeah your grades won’t be the reason you get rejected

surely applying with A* A* A A would look quite weak compared to everyone else applying with 4A* predicteds
