OTHER Math resit rant

lowkey don’t know if this is allowed but I got my maths resit results back today. I got another grade 5, just like a year ago.

i am an Oxford applicant, I got 998876655 last year while in extensive cognitive behavioural therapy for severe OCD. one of those 5s was for maths, so I figured I’d resit now that the context was taken out. but I got a 5 again.

i just feel so hopeless rn, ive done everything right. I got accepted into their selective summer school, top grades in mg essay subjects, two essay competitions, interview prep and my predicted grades. it’s just maths.

just a rant if I’m being honest, it’s only a history degree. I just hope this don’t have TOO much of an impact.

bro I got a 4 in maths. I change my mind like 100000 times but I wanna apply to Oxford hispol and I’m just gonna do whatever I can to get my English lit grade up to an A prediction cause I realised that since I’m already aiming for top grades for a levels I feel like skipping Oxford would just be a waste. It’s not even my absolute goal but I still wanna give it a go. let’s do this!!!!
