distant nimbus Feb 10, 2021, 3:19 PM

tbh if you're considering going to medical school, it's good to have an end goal in mind (your desired residency), but just remember to go into med school with an open mind, as most students will develop interests in other subjects/systems.

I mean whether you take math or physics (or both) for A level, you’re gonna study them both in med school during the first year or two. If you’re interested in US or Canada then you’re gonna have to take them too in college since they’re premed requirements

Yes

Most likely they will

Same for FM 2021

I think all 2021 series thresholds will be lower and then 2022 will be normal

do they carry over the grade or the marks themselves?

But now they've scrapped mechanics 2 from the syllabus

sweet oracle <@!559390980772462614> why is that, dont i have to continue mechanical in year 1...

So for year 13 you don't have a choice

sweet oracle Mar 18, 2021, 8:43 AM

#

@shadow tree so in year 13 i have to to stats 2, wont that be harder as i have not done stats 1 ?

#

do you think that's a problem, or i should change to stats 1

shadow tree Mar 18, 2021, 8:44 AM

#

You will be taking stats 1

#

You can't take stats 2 without doing stats 1

sweet oracle Mar 18, 2021, 8:45 AM

#

oh so by the end of my year 13 i will do stats 1 and mechanics 1

#

do you think thats a good choice or should i do stats 1 and stats 2 ?

No worries it's alright :)

Math and English* my bad

Forgot abt those ones

potent violet Mar 18, 2021, 6:11 PM

#

Firstly, nice pfp lol.
Second, important thing for o levels is to remain calm and focused and to complete your work and make custom notes on lessons. The notes neednt be fancy, just good enough so that you save time in revision. Also personally id recommend making a new google account and having a new fresh youtube account and there you only watch subject related vids like fuseschool, amoeba sisters,etc these were the best revision i used and really pumped my marks up.

#

After knowing your syllabus and content then you start solving papers and then use that to see which subjects you still lack proper understanding of and then go back to revising and keep solving.

#

I feel like this should be a pinned msg but whatever lol

Actually for courses that aren't STEM related you can choose whatever A level you want to for example if I wanted to do business management (real estate would prolly come under that) I can take sociology biology and chemistry if I wanted, in the first year of University they'd teach u the basics anyways. But it all depends on the course ur applying to at uni not what u want as ur profession that's too far out. Make sure uk what u wanna study at uni cos there's obviously no course called real estate😂

for 3 subjects is alot of burden already

the way i think of it, choosing more subjects just keeps your career options open

upto you then now. We have said maths is a pre-req for most uni's. research a bit more and then choose. My advice is to take maths, despite the extra work. could potentially save you from future stress

slow widget Apr 5, 2021, 4:23 PM

you would have to research and see if chem is a pre-req for the program and uni you want to apply to

You need to study chem regardless of which type of engineering you go into at least for the first 2 years of your uni

i hope this question is relevant to this channel. but anyway, how much do colleges care about internal grades when you have official cambridge reports (IGCSEs and AS levels) to submit to them as well?

like, would they focus more on your grades from CIE or your school?

slow widget Apr 10, 2021, 1:48 PM

#

lapis jay what does this mean?

Like some unis give you conditional offers

#

If your actual cie exams are after like when the uni has to give you an offer

#

So they give you a conditional offer

#

Based on your predicted grades that you would submit from internal exams

#

And then you would have to match those predicted grades in your final cie exams
