#

ah same

#

olevel efforts to get A*= as efforts to get C

glossy pewter
mild compass
#

O level efforts + consistency to get A* = A level effort to get A*

#

Y'all were just lazy af in o levels

#

And did half assed work

#

Combined w gaming, TikTok and the garbage

#

So obviously the same won't work in A levels

lament cloud
#

Even for a diligent kid

#

AL is a step up from OL

#

You have to put in more effort

#

Significantly more

plush depot
#

consistency should remain same la?

# lament cloud AL is a step up from OL

Yeah it's a step up but most people from o levels and Igcse are used to the laid back approach and never really put in any effort in the first place so AL seems like it needs something like 12 hours / day of studying to ace. When in reality it's just 3-4 hours of consistent studying everyday.

#

Key word is consistent because no one is consistent. Istg y'all just study 8 hours one day and then take 3 days worth of breaks πŸ’€then complain ab how hard Cambridge is

#

The recipe for an A* is the same for O level or whatever you're studying

#

Consistent studying + Deliberate Past paper practice

#

By deliberate, I mean mindful of the mistakes you make by revising them

mild compass
#

And final advice, don't take the advice and opinions of people with bad grades (B, C, D etc). Nothing against people with those grades btw. But, they don't know what they're doing and will scare you or confuse you about the subjects you're studying and it's "difficulty"

#

If anyone, ask people with A*s

#

Not even A's

frosty minnow
#

guys don't be afraid to be frank with me alright?
I just got back to my school since my visa didn't make it for my uni. I came out of that school having completed 4 AS levels all A (Physics, Math, Chemistry, Psychology). I thought that was enough and that I could just go to my uni that didn't require AS levels in the first place. But since I'm back and I'm in danger of falling into a gap year. I checked out other unis to see if I could apply. I realized that there's not really many I could apply to without A-levels. So I deecided to go back to school and get some A-levels. Already being 2 months behind I decided to only take 2 A-levels (Physics and Maths) and another AS level (Computer Science).

Now this isn't 3 A-levels like the standard for most unis and everything I've research thus far says that I'm pretty much screwed and I can't really make it to most unis, especially the prestigious ones. But I'm really aiming high this year and my teachers feel that I could do it. I'm hoping to get a really high grade for my 3 subjects anyway.

Now my questions, with 4 A grades for my AS levels and the hopes that I get 2 A*s with Physics and Maths A-level and another A for my Computer Science AS this year, am I still screwed in terms of getting into prestigious unis cuz I only have 2 A-levels + 5 AS levels, instead of 3 A-levels

mild compass
#

@frosty minnow wait a minute

#

You have 4 AS levels (Math, Physics, Psych, Chem). Each with the grade A.

What year did you do them?

#

Why are you doing computer science?

#

When do you plan to take the A Levels?

mild compass
#

But a lot, which I mean a lot of things depends on your sop and recommendation letters

mild compass
#

Unis demand 3-5 A-levels

#

Not AS

#

πŸ’€

frosty minnow
frosty minnow
frosty minnow
#

since I was already behind school I thought I should just choose another AS level subject since I didn't want to just overwhelm myself being this behind

#

@mild compass

mild compass
#

@frosty minnow so you did it May/June 2022 or May/June 2021?

#

The AS

frosty minnow
#

may june 2022

frosty minnow
mild compass
#

It's okay if you do it May/June 2023 bro

#

Not a gap year

#

πŸ’€

frosty minnow
#

yeah I'm not concerned about the gap year anymore

#

since I decided to do my A-levels

#

now

#

I did them because Ididn't want to get a gap year

mild compass
#

u need to get gd sat,gd ielts, gd grades, great sop, great recommendations to get into top uni

frosty minnow
#

but I'm concerned that my A-levels won't get me anywhere anyway since these unis require at least 3 A-levels

#

and I only have 2

#

but I'd get 5 AS

mild compass
#

@mild compass bro is it a gap year if he does AS in may/June 2022 and A2 in May/June 2023

frosty minnow
#

how do I know if my recommendations are good enough

mild compass
#

why are doing cs along with alevels?

#

@mild compass bro is it a gap year

mild compass
#

Cus now I'm confused

#

πŸ’€

mild compass
frosty minnow
#

nah it's not

#

it's not a gap year

mild compass
#

Fr almost made me question my exams bro

#

😭

frosty minnow
#

I was just saying I chose to go back to school since i didn't get to uni

#

so sorry

mild compass
#

I was about to cry bro

#

oh okay now I get it

#

she applied after as

#

but got rejected

frosty minnow
#

I was gonna leave, I'm supposed to be in Uni by now

#

nah it's the visa

#

that got rejected

#

the uni I was in didn't need A-levels

mild compass
#

Anyway you can do physics, math and chem for A2 and then apply for Uni @frosty minnow

frosty minnow
#

I postponed those now

frosty minnow
mild compass
#

AS comp sci is useless

mild compass
frosty minnow
#

that's the problem I'm in

mild compass
#

And why did your visa get rejected

#

What's your nationality

frosty minnow
#

Budapest University of technology and economics

mild compass
#

Budapest

frosty minnow
#

didn't get rejected I just had problems

mild compass
#

where is budapest

frosty minnow
#

so I applied like ages ago

#

like february

mild compass
frosty minnow
#

the uni was done

#

and they only got me to do the entrance exam in like may

#

and stuff

#

and then I got IELTs done and all that

#

but then I couldn't startwith the visa process since I don't have a nacceptance letter

#

it took them absolutely ages

mild compass
#

You do realize, that immigration has nothing to do w uni and they usually reject on basis of nationality+ other factors

frosty minnow
#

but then we had to go to philippines

#

and I still haven't started the process

#

so we thought of doing it inphilippines

#

we were contacting them

mild compass
#

So you had the offer letter?

frosty minnow
#

since I couldn't fill all the requirements since I didn't study there

frosty minnow
mild compass

So basically

frosty minnow

Which is pretty useless for all subjects

plush depot
#

wait nvm as grade is counted towards a2

mild compass
frosty minnow
#

okay guys so look
I'm planning to do Mechanical Engineering

I was gonna do it in Hungary

I applied there since I heard it's really cheap over there, the tuition fee is like 30k QR or around 9-10k dollars a year which is insanely good

my parents encourage me to try out other unis anyway but we're concerned that my application will just get rejected since I didn't choose a third A-llevel and yeah , I chose a useless one, but I did it because having 2 A2s was already a lot for me since I got back to school in Novemeber when school started in August

I was wondering if having 4 max grade AS levels + 1 more AS level + 2 A2 levels hopefully in their max grades will be fine

mild compass
#

Why do you need CS for mechanical engineering

#

Physics math and chem are fine

plush depot
#

yup

mild compass
#

CS is out of the way

frosty minnow

How do I get myself to focus while studying?

#

Even when I've actually sat down to read, my mind just wanders elsewhere

olive wadi
# crystal needle How do I get myself to focus while studying?

put away phones and tablets and any distractions and start implementing small chunks of time where u study and focus at ur task. So lets say u set a goal of reading a certain topic in a book. U say to urself ok for the next 30 mins i shall only read this and do nothing else just focus on this , then take a 5-10 min break. Keep repeating this and each day try to add 5-10 mins more until u reach like 50mins or something. Ideally u’d wanna study 50mins then 10min break any more i feel like is overkill

#

u need to have some level of willpower and discipline tho

#

cant just be like β€œoh i wanna study more but its too much work” nah u need to want to study more

#

put up small term achievable goals to boost motivation which in turn boosts focus

# crystal needle Even when I've actually sat down to read, my mind just wanders elsewhere

This is what i do: when i get distracted, i remind myself what my goal is. I would have pasted a sticky note somewhere where it is visible. There are days where i can't bring myself to concentrate so, i have to push myself to study wether i like it or not. I keep my phone on silent, sometimes listen to songs to keep the pace going when i study(some ppl prefer to listen to songs and some don't. it depends) I study in study servers so i can find some motivation in studying by seeing others study(some ppl prefer some company) or i have some study with me live yt videos going in the background in case no one joins me to study.

I hope this helps you😁

i dont know what to do , i barely got passing grade but managed to get into the best university in my country in a field i have zero interest in because as the eldest son in the family i have the responsibility of taking care of the family (i have to due to personal reasons ), i took a gapyear after my alevels and worked on myself , (thats not the issue) the issue is my sister who is a year younger than me has decided to apply to a medical university which is in a different city where im applying to and now my parents expect me to decline the university offer and find a university in the same city where my sister is trying to apply to . i agree with my parents reasoning and their experience that it would be cheaper for us to live together and i can cook food and in turn she can do chores also its better to have a male presence in the house (the city is known to be unsafe).
i dont know what to do , i dont think i can squeeze into another university this late with my grades .
i cant talk against this with my parents and i know they wont agree to let me stay

because man u got blessed with a rlly good uni now it would not make sense to decline it and just cross ur fingers that ull get admission in the city ur sister wants to apply.

What if u dont get admission (which is absurd since u got admitted in the best uni of ur country but since u mentioned u got passing grade) then it will be a loss loss situation since now
1- ur sister will have to go study alone which is not what ur parents want
2- u cant even go back to ur old uni since u rejected it

#

or what u can do is dont reject this one and try to see first if u have a chance for acceptance in that city, once u have some affirmation about that then reject this uni

if your sister has only just applied then she can also apply in the same city as your uni no?

i dont know how unsafe it is so im trying to refrain from commenting tbh

honestly idk how her uni works but
even if u go and live with her in a flat
isnt it more safer for her to just live in hostels or stuff right beside her own uni

#

no need to go far

#

bcoz lets say if ur in ur own uni and she is coming back to her flat alone which is not right beside her uni

ive tried convincing them with everything. there are some things that are personal that i cant say , my parents reasoning is very valid

I'm sure some people will give you practical advice but the most I can say is that every seconds worth of preparation is usually rewarded in the end result, and I'm aware that a shit ton of people might say "just stay positive" but the truth is that sometimes it's okay to yknow breakdown. Have a good cry, but just sit back down and do it. Don't think about the end for now and just prepare; dont overwork yourself though. Balance is key, you'll be okay <3

Practical advice (trigger warning):
||Worrying is a pointless waste of mental energy. Stop overthinking, it only makes things worse.

I don't know how you studied, your method, the hours you put in, how much focus you had etc.

Only you know that, so figure that out.
Be honest with yourself and figure out what you did wrong. You don't have to be certain about every move, just pin down what you think contributed to you not achieving your desired grades.

Once you have it laid out, the mistakes you made, the next part is easy. Don't repeat them again, learn from your mistakes.

Now, the rest is easy really. You've already taken a test so you have a feel for the examination therefore you know how to prepare and all that technical stuff.

I'll leave that to you, there's loads of guides on how to get high scores on SAT's.

However, my final word of advice, which is very important and helped me achieve basically all of my top grades ever.

Develop your focus
Take 5-15 minute strict breaks after each study session of 1hour - 30 minutes with NO distractions (no phones, no screentime basically and don't try to use your brain (e.g. playing a round of chess))

Those habits alone will get you top grades. ||

  3. Actually just throwaway your phone (not kidding)
  4. Grab a past paper and attempt it, even if you don't know the syllabus. Grade yourself and then list out the chapters and topics you do not understand or have no knowledge of.
  5. Learn the listed topics to the best of your ability
  6. Forget about time. Don't count the days until your exams. It will only stress and overwhelm you.
  7. Fuck the people above, sleep 8-9 hours a day no matter what and do not use your phone 2 hours before sleeping.

The jump from IGs to A Levels is very huge as the subjects you're studying become more condensed, but don't worry too much about it, just make sure your notes are up to date every week and you'll be fine. For content heavy subjects, such as bio, it's super important to revise throughout the year, since there's a lot to remember!

slate sky
# clever zinc i got 6 A*s but i still dont think im smart

Yeah that happens. The jump is big but since u got 6 A* in IGCSE, you definitely have the opportunity to get all A* and As in A levels. The first few days can be hard but dw because at this point, most schools start to make a transition to IG and AS and it only lasts like around a week or so. Just keep working hard and eventually u will overcome the jump before the final exams happens.

If you are comparing yourselves to other ppl then compare in a positive way

Instead of comparing to ppl with 'young' and 'rich' parents, compare to ppl who have a single parent or no parents at all

And like age doesn't say anything

If anything, older parents have more real life experience

So they can do better parenting

Amazing quote

lament cloud
#

Everything has upsides and downsides tho, we can't ignore one part of something and appreciate or complain about the other part. For example this guy's issue is that his parents are old, so he feels he can't relate to them or have a fun relationship with them because of the age gap. The positive side would be like you said that they have more experience so they might be able to parent better.
