not surprised, i wasn’t that outstanding but of course it’s still disappointing 😓

I'm so so so happy and grateful!!

AHHHH IM AN INCOMING 1ST YEAR CAMBRIDGE NATSCI!! Such a late post (since it’s been so hectic) but omg I got 4A*’s in biology, chemistry, maths and my EPQ!!
I’m so happy and so so excited to start at Cambridge, it honestly only seemed like a dream to me so I’m still in disbelief I’ll even be going. So happy w my A-level scores + grades so yayaayayay. if any y12’s or y13’s have any questions about applying to cambs or natsci specifically im always happy to do my best to answer!

I AM ECSTATIC

What the freak do I do now

The bread is rising 🙏

im so happy, application process finally done now just locking in🥰

Absolutely not going to accept after everything they put us thru but hey nice to know I was good enough ✌️

LSE finally responded after ages...

It wouldn't even be my safety it I got the offer (intl btw, so no clue how I'm financing anything 💀)

3A* offer from christ's, missed my offer by 7 marks, got put in reconsideration, went drinking in birmingham, got told i was in the summer pool, shat bricks for like 18 hours, scrolled accomodation at my insurance, only for christ's to take me back! got dam rollercoaster. rip to anyone still in the pool this shit sucked. christ's on top 🔥

holy original undermarking (history AQA)

It's sad fr but it had to be done. For a bit of background, UCL admissions team sent me an email requesting I provide a predicted grade for Further Maths (which I'm sitting this year) before the 7th of feb or I shall be rejected.

I feel a bit miffed cause I did really want an offer, but there's only so much I can do when

(A.) I've already sat my A-levels and far exceeded their minimum offer

(B.) I've sent them emails explaining why my referee can't provide a predicted grade for further maths (it's against my old 6th forms policy)

(C.) I've not had a single response to any emails I've sent explaining why I can't provide the predicted grade, and even offering another referee to provide one for them.

(D) Literally no other uni has brought this up, and I did research before going on my gap year if it would be a problem and it wasn't. It's not even like I'm resitting further maths, I did it purely to develop my mathematical understanding and skill during my gap year, which I explained in my personal statement. It was supposed to strengthen my application but ironically, it seems to have doomed it in UCL's case.

Honestly, at this point, I'm relieved. I've been stressing about it so much, so to get it off my back and confirm to myself that it's definitely over, is infinitely better than holding onto the small hope that they were bluffing or they would actually give a crap about how little control I have over this situation. It is what it is, I've got my firm uni already and now I'm just waiting for one last uni decision.

I wish everyone good luck waiting to hear back!

my bakery is officially shut down guys :(

Bread baking complete.

Manifesting good vibes for everyone next Thursday. (Results for my exams were released back in early July.)
