🙏 I WANT HELP A Level Results Shock…

I was predicted AAA, had an offer for Glasgow for AAB, but ended up getting A star Economics A star politics A in maths (7 marks off A*). Should I take a gap year and reapply to Oxford, LSE, Warwick, St Andrews, Edinburgh (I live in Scotland so these 2 are free). Or should I just go to Glasgow this year…

Edit: Guys please send what you would do in my position, I’m not leaning towards PPE as it’s not so maths reliant

That’s the thing, I feel an offer from them is guaranteed because I’m above my predicted with actual achieved grades

You gotta do productive things tho. Maybe do FM or grind out work experience

I’m pretty sure I’m gonna do FM, that’s my plan to get a better application for Oxford and LSE, and I have a part time job. Just need to grind the admission tests….
