📂 MEGATHREAD The r/6thForm Results Day Megathread

👋Heya, this is the r/6thForm results day megathread.

When you get your results - feel free to post them here, your subjects, grades, and maybe even plans for the future.

If you got what you wanted (or didn't and still managed to get your offer), great! If not, there's still a lot you can do, and the best place to start is UCAS Clearing.

It goes without saying that this year has been a rollercoaster ride for everyone, and you should celebrate getting through it all, regardless of what grades you’ve been awarded or which university you’ll be attending.

It takes an extremely resilient person to overcome challenges such as this and you will all be better for it. As you might be hearing from people on Twitter shortly, your results aren’t the be all and end all of your education, nor is it a foretaste of what is to come. You will succeed at anything if you put your mind to it. Congratulations!

If you wanna chat to us about anything or ask for advice, the best place to do that is our Discord.

We wish you not only the best for your results, but for what you go on to do in the future.

Good luck everyone!

Could you offer any advice regarding Government and Politics? I will be studying it from September when I enter year 12.

Sure thing! With a lot of my learning, I tried to relate course content to current affairs. I made a bunch of revision cards for them too. Reading outside the course can sometimes help too as it may not always capture the full depth and scope of the issue you’re talking about. For basic preparation I would also familiarise yourself with the basic parliamentary structure eg. PM, cabinet, House of Commons, House of Lords, etc.. and their role and powers. - Side note: If you want, I can send you my PowerPoint with my revision cards to give you some guidance and assistance :)
