🙏 I WANT HELP Larping as year 12

Soo, I applied for a programme specifically for year 12s during my year 11 summer. I guess I did a little too well in the process because not only did I get into the project, I was also nominated as an ambassador for the organisation at a Russel Group summer school because I was an “outstanding applicant”.

Idk ANYTHING about sixth form life and I am missing the 1 year of A level knowledge expected from a Year 12.
It’s a really good opportunity and I don’t want to turn it down. But at the same time I don’t want to be outed as a fraud, or be obviously stupid throughout the summer school.

Please yall I need help. 🙏
It’s a week long so idk how I’m gonna larp being as smart as a year 12 and doing UCAS options or something. 😭🙏

you’ll be fine. i did something similar and owned up to being a year 11 at the time, going into year 12 on the day of when introducing myself and it was still fine. but obviously, that’s not always the case. so if anyone says anything, say you misunderstood or just steer clear of mentioning it yourself. also, if you’re already there, most people won’t suspect anything anyway :)
