omg congratz girlie!! I'm so jealous (although why did you apply so early? I thought the deadline was mid-January?)

Meanwhile I got an email today saying "wait until after February 219 before you enquire about your application" this is gonna be a long few months (and Ive got interviews too: ) I can tell Im gonna cry if more people keep telling me they're getting offers

It's an access programme which gives you a reduced offer of up to 2 grades (so a course requiring AAA will be lowered to ABB) in A Levels! It's aimed at college students near the area of the Uni. What did you study?

I've not head of that, sounds pretty good! Is it for universities which are in some kind of partnership with the college, or just any local ones?
I did Primary Education

It is!
It's any local ones (although that said I think I was one of the furthest away - I certainly was the only one from my college at the programme and we're a big college )

Oh that's smart! I thought only medics and Oxbridge could apply early so that's nice, I would've applied earlier if I had the choice anywho

Just bumping this to see how everyone's coping with looming exams?

I'm not gonna lie, I'm scared. It feels like there's so much I don't know and I really don't want to resit a year all my teachers are confident I'll do well, though

I just wish I stayed focus during a few months in which my mind just spiralled </3 but it's not over yet! I've noticed a massive improvement in the space of two months and that was by doing less work than I'm currently doing now. Mark my words - I will be at Uni this time in 5 months!

Omg I went to Keele for my foundation year before transferring. Nice campus and great SU I just found things slow and you have to hand things in with paper in an office whereas everything at my uni is done electronically so I didn’t even have to leave my bed. Also found Keele very cliquey as it is a campus uni

I have received a First on all my assignments this year and for one exam, just waiting for the result of one more exam to find out my overall grade, then graduation in July!

All I can say is thank **** for the olive branch I've been offered for September

I've worked my arse off with these exams and put myself under massive stress to have been faced with the hardest rounds of exam papers I have ever seen for all of my subjects. I'm breaking down as it is, don't know how worse I'd be without my offer :/

I'm just scared y'know that folk will look down on me and say 'he got an unconditional so he didn't try' when I really did try, people will just think I'm dumb

But hey ho, last exam tomorrow and after that I can relax for 4 months ))

...you probably haven’t messed up anything at all, Ant...it’s just worry because you know the grades you want and you’re placing such high achievements for yourself...just wait and see, eh...and enjoy your more chilled time right now with your friends......

Ammi;love: thank you. I didn't see this because I've been trying to unwind myself so sorry for the late reply. The issue is, I'm still dreaming I'm revising, but I'm revising things I forgot to revise (but didn't end up on the exam). So it's concerning that I've ended up revising more for topics in my sleep than when I'm awake the more time goes on, the more I'm convinced it'll all be fine. But I think that's because I've forgotten all about the questions and whatnot
