I'm wanting to stick with English

Ooo I'll check out Hungary and Poland

How's the quality of courses in Europe any idea?

[cedar hollow]

Yes

[cedar hollow]

Okay then go with the ones I mentioned but ask around before making any final decision

As Idk alot about European unis

[opaque pebble]

What universities are there

[cedar hollow]

It's not as good as the UK but I heard its decent

[opaque pebble]

Yeah I've been wanting to connect with students who do study there

[opaque pebble]

Yeah but uk is hella expensive out of my reach and they need near to perfect grades too

[cedar hollow]

But what I also heard was that some doctors might ask you to pay them in order to let you pass(I have no idea how true this is so do your own research)

[cedar hollow]

Tbh I don't remember the names anymore

Been a while since I looked at eu unis

Idt we have many people who study in Europe here tbh

[cedar hollow]

Try asking your teachers if they could give you the contact details of some graduate of your own school who has gone to a European uni

They might give you if that student agrees

[rare vault]

nah they are good to

the probles arise due to language bariers

[opaque pebble]

ooohokayy ill look up on google

[opaque pebble]

yeah thats why idk wanna find someone who is going to one

[opaque pebble]

yeah i already tried they dont know anyone

[opaque pebble]

yeah fully

and 3rd year you gotta do the language cause its all clinical

soo

[tranquil summit]

I have a friend doing medicine in Poland in Lodz (there are accents on the letters but idk) she had to take polish classes and said the lecturers don't always know very good english

And yea she has to learn enough by the clinical years

[strange forum]

Does the uni provide the extra classes for language as well, or we need to jojn different language centre??

[tranquil summit]

The uni had mandatory polish modules

[stone wing]

hi, can i ask about uk university apps here

[strange forum]

Can you please get the name of uni??

[tranquil summit]

I've asked

[strange forum]

So whats the name??🫠

[tranquil summit]

Bruh they haven't replied yet.. if they did I'd tell you

[strange forum]

Mb, I misunderstood the sentence!! Will wait!!

[tranquil summit]

Lodz university, U med is what they said

[strange forum]

So they don't have good scholarships, ,

Anyways, thanks for asking tho..

[tranquil summit]

Eeks sorry

This is what they said about the uni if you want more info

[strange forum]

Thanks, will try to dig deeper for scholarships!!

[strange forum]

What kind of help??

[gritty gust]

[wispy swan]

Could someone suggest me any Ivy League which is well known for their Computer Science Program?

[rare vault]

guys anyone over here has a like a list of cheap unis all around the world

which are good

and if not all around the world then can i get a suggestion for cheap american Unis

[chilly jay]

Isn’t that different across different countries

Correct me if I’m wrong

[strange forum]

Idt so. The person with PhD can write Dr in their initial name

But the doctors is someone with a MD degree in medicine mainly

As per ok

Ik*

[mellow venture]

Theyre both doctors

Oh right okay

That is what u meant

Phd typically jus refers to a person having done research i believe

Not necessarily

[chilly jay]

"In the United Kingdom, India, Pakistan, Hong Kong, Trinidad and Tobago,South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Ghana, and other countries whose cultures were recently linked to the UK, the title Dr is generally used both for those who hold doctoral degrees and for registered medical practitioners."

It can be used for both people who hold degrees and medical practitioners.

as I said, it differs across countries

that's the wikipedia

[mellow venture]

If i remember correctly

[chilly jay]

where are you getting your information from, image?

[mellow venture]

Lots of phd students give lectures for people theyre under

[chilly jay]

what are you trying to say here then

I don't understand

[mellow venture]

Ffs

U misunderstood what he meant

He meant doctors in hospitals

Have a MD

[chilly jay]

ah okay, just because you said "nope" I thought you were saying a doctor is only someone who holds a doctorate and not a practitioner

[mellow venture]

And was referring to how phd holders who have Dr initial

[chilly jay]

it's just weird wording on your part honestly, yeah it's a misunderstanding

[mellow venture]

Arent doctors who administer treatment/medicine

LOL

[chilly jay]

why are you getting defensive all I said was it's improper wording

all right buddy you're right you happy now?

objectively incorrect

but whatever

[mellow venture]

@strange forum is that what u meant

What i said above

[mellow venture]

Perhaps a poor choice of wording i dare add.

A brain fart one could say

[strange forum]

Yeah, that was my point, a person having a MD degree only, can write doctors, even if they don't have a doctorate degree!! and the person with PhD can also write it!! But it completely depends on country!!

[tranquil summit]

We have lecturers who don't have the title of professors..

You can still teach without the title of professor

It's a higher level

[flat nexus]

Guys can you suggest me top universities in the uk for biomedical engineering?

[young whale]

When applying to uni should I use my predicted A2 marks or use my actual marks?

[tranquil summit]

if you have actual then you use them

if you dont have them then use predicted @young whale

[young whale]

Would that effect the acceptancy rate or it wouldn't?

Because to use might actual marks I need to wait for a whole year

[tranquil summit]

oh no i just meant if you'd already taken a gap year

most people apply with predicted grades so dw!

very few places ask for the final grade before you apply, if they do then that will be made explicitly clear

[young whale]

Alright thanks for the advice!

[tranquil summit]

no worries

[stray kite]

Hello guys

I aced my IGCSEs last year and I'm now in AS level going to A level next year. I know this server has peeps from around the world, I would like to know which universities are the best for international students...by the way I want to take a program with computers...somewhere around Actuarial science and Data Science...may I please have recommendations? Please?@everyone

[glacial spruce]

I have heard of good international unis in abu dhabi for that course

uk have also good uni

[static shore]

Hello. What are some good universities close to Sheffield?

[loud brook]

How is nanyang technological university?

[mossy hill]

What are good european countries for international students?

[desert citrus]

the Netherlands has some amazing unis and they’re more affordable than other countries’ as well

[mossy hill]

courses in english?

[rare vault]

Yea

England is best for English edu

In Europe

In Netherlands education is in English but for jobs you still need to know Dutch language

Hi i have a doubt.

What are the A level entry requirements to study accounting and finance in the UK ?

And is studying economics or business more important for my future in accounting and finance. Other maths and accounting. To be studying in the UK

Im rly stuck and id love someome to help me through this

And which uni is best fr this.

[hearty robin]

You just look at the individual university websites for the universities you want to go to and check there entry requirements for each course cause some would require A-level Maths for there accounting and finance course I know that both Kings college London and Warwick require Maths A-level for accounting and finance

However some others won’t require maths A-levels for there course and entry requirements will be less stricter

[desert sable]

Yes..

My question is wht do i choose.. business or economics.? Wht wud be best for my future?

Ive already chosen accounting and maths

[cedar hollow]

LSE or UCL

best imo

[small bough]

queens mary was gonna be my firm choice but theyve just upped the entry requirements for compsci by two grades wtf

[tranquil summit]

has your offer changed?

[small bough]

i havent sent my ucas yet

[desert sable]

Im beggining to start studying my A levels

[desert sable]

Whats should i choose?

Business or economics as my 3rd option?

First 2 are maths and accounting

[cedar hollow]

for a levels?

id do economics

[loud brook]

Can SAT be helpful for uk or european applications?

[lime heart]

for uk no, usually they would rather accept AP scores

[steady fable]

Question: Can you take Cambridge international examinations for AS/A levels privately in the UK?

Like can I choose that exam board.

[safe owl]

There are no helper roles set for this channel! | Please ask a moderator to set one!

[steady fable]

???

[strange forum]

I think yes!!

But check on Ur interested board website, they'll have more detailed info on this!!

[steady fable]

I've been looking hard but they don't give me a definitive answer

Actually, they say some private schools use CIE in the UK, but they don't specify whether someone can take it privately

[strange forum]

Okay so for which board, Cambridge/Edexcel/ or any other?

[steady fable]

Cambridge

thats for AS/A levels

[strange forum]

https://www.cambridgeinternational.org/exam-administration/private-candidates/

This might help

Or call their call center,they cooperate really well.

[azure umbra]

Which subjects are compulsory if im wanting to be a software engineer

[tranquil summit]

Maths

[azure umbra]

any specific sciences?

[tranquil summit]

That would depend on the country

Broadly speaking, you only need maths

[azure umbra]

what about india, i heard chem and physics are mandatory, is that true?

[azure umbra]

oh okay

[tranquil summit]

I personally don't know but there wil be other people here who will

[azure umbra]

alright, tysm

[main saffron]

when is the application deadline for Australia?

cant find it on their website

[strange forum]

Depends on Ur uni!

[main saffron]

Can you tell me how do I find out

[strange forum]

Use smth like this search uni name and application deadline works for most unis!!

[chilly jay]

If it’s a bachelor of engineering degree you 99% of the time need Chemistry too

You can also study computer science and choose software engineering electives

[azure umbra]

so right now ive taken, chem, physics, comp science and maths

is that fine>

?

[tranquil summit]

That's perfect

[chilly jay]

Yep

Although I wouldn’t advise taking that many solely so you can study software engineering (but if you want to broaden your options and can handle that many it’s better)

It’s not uncommon for people who take computer science to become software engineers

at all

[mossy hill]

I want to do either pharmacology or pharmaceutical sciences, other than the UK, I am not sure of any other european countries I could consider due to the language barrier and mode of teaching, does anyone have any suggestions other than the netherlands?

[rare vault]

For ug your chances are limited to the Netherlands as far as I am aware

There are some unis in other countries which offer ug English courses but they are very hard to find as you have to check every unis website for that

But for Masters I can confirm to you that both Italy and Germany have masters in English

[rare vault]

I haven't fully researched this yet but a few of my friends have said this so this will be correct

[mossy hill]

yeah :( idk what to do if my parents say no to the uk

[tranquil summit]

Lund in Sweden has English courses

Most places have masters in English

[compact sorrel]

What is harder AP or IGCSE ?

[hybrid rune]

AP

[compact sorrel]

Why?

[hybrid rune]

I’ve done IGCSE it was way too easy to get a*

Too much scaling I’d say

[compact sorrel]

whats the difference

[hybrid rune]

Ones more American ones more international

[compact sorrel]

Wdym

uh

[hybrid rune]

For igcse

Like pretty low raw mark still gets pushed up to a or a*

[compact sorrel]

well it depends on the thresholds

[hybrid rune]

So I’d say esp for math and science it’s pretty easy to get a or a*

[compact sorrel]

but as for the syllabus?

i thought igcse goes pretty deep into the subject

[hybrid rune]

What subjects are u looking at

[compact sorrel]

AP doesn’t or ACT lets say

[compact sorrel]

I’m just saying in general

Literally all subject goes pretty deep

in igcse

[hybrid rune]

Nah not really now I think about it

[compact sorrel]

AP has more details?

or ACT

[hybrid rune]

If IGCSE was a bit deeper then there wouldn’t be so many ppl struggling at a-levels after igcse

[compact sorrel]

They’re struggling bc the subject even more deeper

like it’s what people at uni take

and not many people r struggling tbh it just depends on how well u did in IGCSE

[hybrid rune]

But u can make igcse bit harder so ppl don’t get that much confidence from it ig

[hybrid rune]

Not struggle I’d say they complain about the jump being really big

Not necessarily struggle

[compact sorrel]

SO at the end what goes pretty deeeeep into each subject (act and AP ) or igcse, alevel

or which has the hardest exams

[hybrid rune]

It really depends on what kinda students u r

I think for a levels if u do enough papers ur pretty fine

But for ap’s u probably need a bit more creativity and use ur brain a bit more

[dusk moon]

Bro currently i am attending IGCSE O level

i planned to go to US after IGCSE

shall i take

SAT or GED ?

[elder needle]

Is Common app necessary for Germany?

[strange forum]

Ig there is only one college from Germany in common app!!

You can use univassist, tho!

[elder needle]

Which one? Can you please tell me about it

[elder needle]

What is uni assist?

[strange forum]

It's a similar platform to common app but for Germany!!

[elder needle]

Okay thanks for telling

Guys how long did it take any of u to make a account for ucas and common app with writing the personal statement draft

[hybrid rune]

For p/s took like 4 drafts maybe a day or 2?

Ucas wasn’t so long to set up even tho u have to fill in ur grades and all ur personal info

Should be fine if u have a counsellor or mentor to guide u thru

[pulsar oasis]

Hey thanks alot

Also any idea of common appp

[hybrid rune]

As far as I’m aware it’s about the same but u need to get 1 or 2 of ur subject teachers to write something about u

And sitting SAT’s are probably recommended but not necessary

[nocturne torrent]

Pls inform me if anybody knows about CBIT

[safe owl]

There are no helper roles set for this channel! | Please ask a moderator to set one!

[forest laurel]

Question: Is applying to Unis free or do they charge fees for that?

[hybrid rune]

ucas is like £27

[forest laurel]

what about american unis

or canadian ones

[elfin junco]

They most likely charge

[forest laurel]

is it too much?

[elfin junco]

It'll be like $50 max per application group I think but I'm not sure

You should look it up

[forest laurel]

oh oky

what do unis look for while providing scholarships?

it is ECAs? Grades? SATs or ILETs

[hybrid rune]

Some extra curriculars and how u can contribute to the student community of the uni

[forest laurel]

can anyone recommend me good unis for biotech/microbio or pharmacy

[hybrid rune]

But yea insanely good grades would defs make u stand out from the others

[forest laurel]

do we need to show them certificates or can i just mention them in essays

[forest laurel]

do IGCSEs matter? or is it A lvls

[hybrid rune]

Mainly a levels

[forest laurel]

and do they count A=A*

like I got All As missed A* by 1 or 2 marks

in IGCSEs

[hybrid rune]

I don’t think they really care about IGCSE’ s if u have got good enough grades in a levels

Like IGCSE is just proof that u have achieved the basic literacy/numeracy

Depending if ur arts or science student

Cos some unis have tough English language requirements

[forest laurel]

and what about A and A*

are tthey same

[hybrid rune]

For a levels?

[forest laurel]

ffor both

[hybrid rune]

Is this for scholarship or getting into a top uni?

[forest laurel]

scholarships

[elfin junco]

Yeah unis don't care at all about IGCSE

[forest laurel]

Thank God

during my igcses there was quarantine period and i couldnt perform well

[hybrid rune]

For example imperial right even if ur from English speaking country u have to get C in English language

Not even English literature

[forest laurel]

u mean "more than C"

[hybrid rune]

At least c yea

Like if u take lit then u will have to do duolinguo English test or ielts

[forest laurel]

I see

[hybrid rune]

Scholarship ig still depends if ur going for a top unis scholarship or an average scholarship

[forest laurel]

what much do it cost tho to study in a good uni

[hybrid rune]

Cuz each uni look for different scholarship ppl

[forest laurel]

in US

[hybrid rune]

Like a lot bro

[forest laurel]

Can we like study and earn

and cover our expenses

[hybrid rune]

I think if ur in a top uni then the amount of work u get is probably too overwhelming for u to work at the same time

[forest laurel]

i see

how much do these unis provide scholarships

like 30-50%

or more than that

[hybrid rune]

My cousin is in oxford and i don’t think she has spare time at all

[forest laurel]

man

are unis that tough

[hybrid rune]

There’s all sorts

[forest laurel]

i thought unis are fun

[hybrid rune]

Well it’s oxford

[forest laurel]

u get free time

[hybrid rune]

Not at uni yet still applying

[forest laurel]

so it depends on unis

[hybrid rune]

Yea ig

[forest laurel]

whats ur major

[hybrid rune]

Engineering most likely

[forest laurel]

do ur "major" affects chances of scholarship and acceptance

like i want to study biotech

or pharmacy

[hybrid rune]

Thee r scholarships that are based on ur subject

[forest laurel]

so more demand= more scholarships

[hybrid rune]

So if ur going for a biomed schol then I’d say that it’s more competitive

[forest laurel]

why tho

[hybrid rune]

Well all the smart ppl do biomed

[forest laurel]

oh

i thot all smart ppl do engineering

[hybrid rune]

Ok that’s an exaggeration but I can still say most

Like if a person do 3 sciences then they r probably big brain right

And those ppl probably go on to do biomed

[forest laurel]

IN South Asian countries like Bangladesh

if you dont pick engineering

u are dumb

[hybrid rune]

Lmfao they engineer engineers ig

[forest laurel]

if u are doing commerce

u are actually brended

bren ded*

[hybrid rune]

Yea commerce has the lowest requirements lmao

[forest laurel]

according to them

yes but commerce aint an easy subject

[hybrid rune]

Don’t wanna offend anyone

[forest laurel]

All subject has good jobs

if u work hard

[hybrid rune]

Defs

But yea u finished ur igcse’s then ig?

[forest laurel]

yes

[hybrid rune]

Starting in a levels?

[forest laurel]

AS 2023

candidate

[hybrid rune]

Yea u got quite a bit of work to do next 2 years buddy

[forest laurel]

pure science and maths

[forest laurel]

ik man

A lvl is tough

[hybrid rune]

I think ig to as has the biggest jump

[forest laurel]

mcqs are tough

[hybrid rune]

But good thing is there’s resits

[forest laurel]

p2 p3 is relatively easier

[hybrid rune]

But preferably u want to avoid that

[forest laurel]

but for resists we have to pay

again

[hybrid rune]

Yea bro my exams cost a fortune

[forest laurel]

are u doing A2?

[hybrid rune]

Cambridge’s a rip off

[forest laurel]

A2 2023?

[hybrid rune]

Yep

Nah a2 rn

[forest laurel]

what are ur subs

[hybrid rune]

Physics further math history geo

[forest laurel]

further math

god damn

[hybrid rune]

Yea im not sure I recommend that if ur gonna do biomed

[forest laurel]

but where is mathematics

[hybrid rune]

Not really necessary and too much hard work

[forest laurel]

like general maths

[hybrid rune]

Done that last year

[forest laurel]

oh

so u dropped that?

[hybrid rune]

U can do it again if u want ofc

Further math is the general math after a2 basically

Don’t recommend it unless ur ready to grind math all year

[plush loom]

can anyone recommend culinary arts universities?

[strange forum]

I think I had read about university of Mississippi school of medicine having low Goa requirement! But depends how low u want it!!

Okay ig!

Btw I just found out, only us citizens can apply for that uni

And the lowest Gpa uni is American uni school of medicine with 3.0

[tulip mango]

Med in US means you need to do 4 years of undergrad first, so you can't apply right after high school

check out Italy, high school grades don't matter (as long as you pass) but you do need to pass a national entrance examination

[strange forum]

Language requirements??

[tulip mango]

Yes

[tulip mango]

There are around 13 universities that have medicine courses in English, however the downside is non-eus can only apply to one

[mental sinew]

Anyone planning for Germany?

[mental sinew]

Oh
I think there're many universities that teach in English aswell

[strange forum]

For medicine u need to learn German eventually for clinical practice!!

[pulsar oasis]

Quick question, Can i give SAT after applying or sending my application to Unis

Incase i missed the registration deadlines

[vocal musk]

Hey guys for AS and A levels, what good schools are there in India?

Anyone know how's keele university??

[cedar hollow]

For cs?

[strange forum]

Yeah, CS and cyber security combined!

[karmic mountain]

I used but couldn't find any

[cedar hollow]

Oh then I'm sorry I'm not very aware regarding CS

But I think for biological stuff it's good

[strange forum]

I am also applying for biology and CS combined, also so that's good to hear!!!

Thanks!!

[hearty robin]

Has anyone here have any experience with KCL

[hybrid rune]

Yea what subject r u studying?

[hearty robin]

Biology , Psychology and Business studies

[hybrid rune]

But what r u intending to study at KCL?

Their medicine is pretty good

[hearty robin]

Nursing

Most likely

My parents want me to do it

[hybrid rune]

I’m not sure about nursing individually

But there’s nothing that specific about applying to kcl

It’s just like applying to any other ucas uni

But it’s good to keep in mind that the fees are quite expensive unless u get a scholarship or ur domestic

[hearty robin]

Well

I am one grade short

If the entry requirements

And not sure if it’s worth applying still or not

[hybrid rune]

What year are u in?

Have u done as or something?

[hearty robin]

Yeah I have done AS

I am doing A2 next year

[hearty robin]

Year 13

[hybrid rune]

Yea it probably is worth applying

Resist the subject that ur not satisfied with

Resit*

[hearty robin]

I don’t need to

My AS grades don’t count towards my A2 grade

[hearty robin]

I am a home student

I live in the Uk

[hybrid rune]

They count towards a level tho

Don’t they?

I mean if ur domestic then it’s probably worth it it only cost 27 pounds to apply

So ur not sitting cie?

[hearty robin]

No

I do the UK Linear A-levels

[hybrid rune]

Ah idk how those work then

[hearty robin]

AS has no effect on A2

A2 exams count towards 100% of the final A-level grades

[hybrid rune]

So r u feeling confident on ur AB’s

A2’s

[hearty robin]

Only biology I am not so confident in

[hybrid rune]

I think if u feel like ur ready to work hard enough to get the entry requirements then u should be fine

Bio does require u to write quite precisely

Esp when ur doing the structured and also there’s a stats part to bio at a2

At least this is for cie

[hearty robin]

The thing is

My predicted UCAS grade

If I was one grade short

Would they still accept me

[hearty robin]

Yeah biology I find really hard

[hybrid rune]

I think it’s ur final grade that matters

[hearty robin]

Your right

Ig

If I can get a B in Biology A2 I should be able

To get into KCL

[hybrid rune]

Idk the requirements for nursing

[hearty robin]

BBB

[hybrid rune]

Yea

But sometimes even a B is hard at a2

Ngl

[hearty robin]

I can get an A in psychology

A in business

I might have to settle for a C in Biology

[hybrid rune]

Do u guys not do a 4th subject

[hearty robin]

No

Cause

We only need 3 for university here

[hybrid rune]

Yea so do we

But ppl still do 4th just in case u screw up in the external exam

But yea I’d say only apply if ur ready to sacrifice everything to study biology

[tranquil summit]

I mean if you wanna do nursing and you're not good at bio then you're kinda fucked

Like you will not enjoy it

[tranquil summit]

No because you get a conditional offer based on your predicted grades, they could just not give you an offer at all

[tranquil summit]

You should apply to one reach school tho, you have 5 choices so you don't lose anything by applying

[hybrid rune]

But that conditional offer is same for everyone?

[tranquil summit]

not necessarily

they usually give you the typical offer on the website

but they can give you a lower contextual offer based on your circumstances if they deem it necessary

[tranquil summit]

Not necessarily, they can amend it

[forest laurel]

one random question: do recommendation letters affect your chances of getting scholarships or acceptance from an university

[nimble kelp]

probably yes

[strange forum]

It's a part of the application for a reason, so I would say it's important!!

[lime heart]

does anyone know what unis in the uk don't use ucas

I'm really anxious and worried about my predicted grades not being high enough

cuz usually I always need more time to study for A levels than my friends

[cedar hollow]

I'm pretty sure they all are required to use it

Otherwise you'll have to apply through common app

But then idk how commonapp works or if good british unis are on it

[tranquil summit]

Common app is for the US

Even if they didn't use UCAS, they'd ask for predicted grades

[tranquil summit]

Can you talk to your teachers about it?

[lime heart]

sure thing

[granite mortar]

ok

[lime heart]

does anyone know if singaporean universities give more way to Permanent Residents?

[sharp river]

umm i have a question-
just for knowledge, do universities have any age limits? e.g the ivy leagues/mit etc?

like it's okay if for instance you're 15-16 by the time you apply for uni, right?

[nocturne torrent]

Fatimah Is that U?

[sharp river]

yesh 💀

[tranquil summit]

You've finished a levels at 15-16??

[sharp river]

no no not me
'just for knowledge'

[tranquil summit]

😂😂what does that mean

They'll probably be more than happy to have a prodigy

But moving out and living alone will be annoying because it's much less than legal age

[sharp river]

oh hmm

alright

[sharp river]

oh i meant, I havent finished A Levels at that age, i'm just asking about it as a possible circumstance if you get wim 😅

and ty for the answer (:

[tranquil summit]

Honestly you don't gain that much more by going to uni that early

If you're that smart, you don't need to be formally enrolled to make it

Enjoy school, learn social skills

Take it easy

[sharp river]

mhm

Ik friends who moved out at 17 and it's just annoying not being able to have your own bank accounts and shit

Like even the couple of months before they turn 18 it's like that

I can't imagine a few years

By that point you'd have nearly graduated😂

[void glen]

no you must apply before you turn 11

[round jacinth]

you must also have worked on some amazing scientific breakthrough

like helped significantly in working towards finding a cure for cancer or smthn

[neon cairn]

does anybody know good universities in the US for a physics major?

im applying for my bachelors

[round jacinth]

MIT, Caltech, Princeton many more

list goes on

there’s too many good ones

you need to find what’s good for you

where would you fit well

which would fit your budget

etc

[cedar hollow]

Are u a US student?

[nocturne torrent]

Anyone applying Uni for US?

[pastel hemlock]

hello does american universities require to like give all your olevels in one session?

[cedar hollow]

they require the transcript,not your olevel results, if your olevel results are greAT ,U CAN ASK YOUR COUNSELLOR TO CHANGE IT

[vocal agate]

You guys use counsellors?🙄

[cedar hollow]

yh

[cedar summit]

wish we had those

[lime heart]

Hold up

can I apply to ucas

NOT USING MY PREDICTED GRADES

but using my ACTUAL A LEVEL GRADES

[void glen]

his ACTUAL A LEVEL GRADES

[cedar hollow]

Yes

Just put the grade into the designated slot

Instead of pending put the actual grade

[cedar hollow]

Well I never submitted my application to the UK but you have to fill in your personal statement, fill in any extracurricular you have, upload documents iirc

Get references

Predicted grades should be added

There is probably a video explaining this on YouTube so go and have a look

[tranquil summit]

If you're taking a gap year yes

[lime heart]

WHAT I DIDN'T KNOW THAT

wait can my ex teacher still be my reference?

[wintry moss]

Hi Everyone

I'd love some assistance please, I feel like I'm in a sticky situation and I'd love some guidance

I'm Mozambican/ African and got:

(Grade 11) IGCSE Results = ACCCCCCD

(Grade 12) AS Results = BCEEUU

&

Didn't do my A Levels (Grade 13)

May y'all please share with me international universities (Especially in - Canada, South & North America, Europe, and Australia)

That I can apply to

And that would accept me

[nocturne torrent]

@wintry moss wait Grade 11 is IGCSE & Grade 12 is AS

[wintry moss]

In Mozambique we consider it like that, yes

[wintry moss]

Also, I've completed 1 semester in a local university

[wintry moss]

With a scholarship

I'm putting myself in a very vulnerable position 💀 (it's better than just sitting at home and regretting), I don't like my grades. I wish I could've gotten A's B's and C's. But I didn't, I have to work with what I have. I know that I would've gotten better opportunities but unfortunately that wasn't the case for me. And now I'm finding it hard to look for uni's and I'd love and appreciate your help ✨

[hearty robin]

Full scholarship ?

[wintry moss]

If possible 😭🥺

[hearty robin]

Did you pass maths and English IGCSE with C’s and above I noticed you got a D in a IGCSE subject

Also have you started the IETLS if English isn’t your first language

[wintry moss]

Maths C & English D -

But in AS I got B in English

[hearty robin]

I am pretty certain American universities the one you have hinted at require you to sit the SATs as part of there Admission process

[wintry moss]

I did English as my First Language in Both ( because it is)

[hearty robin]

Based on your circumstances I would suggest to do a international foundation year

[hearty robin]

You still need to do the IETLS though since English isn’t your first language

[wintry moss]

I actually have no problem going into a foundation yr, although I can only do it if it's a fully funded ( my folks ain't got the money 💀)

[hearty robin]

What do you want to study btw is my main question?

[wintry moss]

Business Management/Studies

[hearty robin]

Do some research into international foundation programme in Canada and the USA many of them will accept you with just IGCSE alone however in terms of scholarships idk

[wintry moss]

Alright, thank you @hearty robin 💙

I Have a Doubt
so Basically is CSE course Offered in any country?
If I don't study CS in my IG'S & AL's

[rare vault]

See In some countries we have high school till grade 13

Hence g11 was igcse for him

[nocturne torrent]

@rare vault I get it

[rare vault]

Nice

[nocturne torrent]

hi, anyone here doing Shariah or Islamic studies (undergrad) in KSA?

[fading summit]

Hi I’ve done AS Maths and Phy. I too wanna apply for foundation year as a backup. Im giving A2 in may 2023, and have applied to some unis. Should I still apply for foundation year in case I don’t get my preferred alevel grades? Im planning on doing CS btw.

[hearty robin]

Even if you don’t get the grades to get into the degree programs I would still suggest for you to just retake A-levels again it’s less expensive than doing a foundation year at university

[nocturne torrent]

Uhh
wut bout mine

[round jacinth]

what do you mean

i don’t understand your question

[nocturne torrent]

is Computer Science Engineering offered in University

if I haven't studied CS neither in IG's nor AL's

[round jacinth]

yes

just need math

[charred fern]

You've asked this so many times

[nocturne torrent]

I'm getting clarified so that I don't suffer in my life

did u get it?

[charred fern]

If you're so worried then study some programming by yrself beforehand

[nocturne torrent]

yes

now I opted CS as private candidate

[charred fern]

I didn't mean a level cs

Like general cs

say if I were to apply to a uk university and defer my entry for 20 months (I have to serve the military service), do I need to retake my IELTS again?

because I heard it's limited for 2 years only

[hybrid rune]

https://www.imperial.ac.uk/study/pg/apply/requirements/english/

It says 2 years, but 20 months is still 4 months away from 2 years so u might be able to make it in time

[lime heart]

what if I don't

also what does this mean?

pls don't tell me

[burnt fox]

means u can’t apply for 2022 entry, only 2023

[lime heart]

I can't apply anymore

ik

[burnt fox]

you can still apply dw, just for next year :)

[lime heart]

I'm planning to apply for 2023-

you mean like in january next year?

idgi

[burnt fox]

ahh then change ur courses to 2023 entry, it prolly says that cause u have a course that is for 2022

[lime heart]

how do I do that

OH

nvm

[burnt fox]

haha yea

[lime heart]

I got it haha thanks

[burnt fox]

ofc :)

[lime heart]

and it didn't work-

I already clicked apply and on my choices it's still 4/5

[burnt fox]

ohh have u tried removing the course and then adding it again to change the year?

[lime heart]

yep

oh wait

bruh I got mixed up with biochemistry and biomedical mb

what does IMD stand for?

[burnt fox]

hmm no clue tbh

[lime heart]

hm that's okay

what's the buzzword used for anyway?

[burnt fox]

it’s too connect with a school

so ur teacher can send it off

u don’t need it if you aren’t currently going to school

[fading summit]

Oh wait you mean one could apply through ucas without being connected to a school? I’m homeschooling.

[hearty robin]

Yeah but it’s not recommended though

Your school provides you with a reference and predicted grades

[tranquil summit]

you can also upload LORs yourself if you have them

[rare vault]

LORs?????

[tranquil summit]

[fading summit]

I don’t think my school is registered with ucas. I asked the vice principal of the school where I gave my AS exams this year, no reply. I don’t think she knows what UCAS is 😭

[opal needle]

Hi guys okay.. Sorry cause im about to dump alot but i need suggestions or rather advice

Im currently doing (basically done just wait for end year results) AS level bio, chem and English as for the other subjects (physics and maths on IGCSE) i didn't meet the requirements to go with them to AS so i just proceeded with the 3...kinda abit off topic but our school had us take a psychiatric test to determine which field best fit u.. Apparently medicine does and im down for it all the way.. Now here's the real problem i dont have maths and physics on AS so now im in a academic crisis.. Our country doesnt necessarily offer A2 level yet..

So now ive got 2 options

1. Is to redo my physics and math to get great grades on IGCSE and try to get into a foundation year
2. Redo my AS level subject and apply.. cause honestly i know i didn't do great at all

3. Go back to grade 11 redo all my igcse subjects amd and work my way back again to AS 🥲

[umbral garnet]

meds have fr high requirement... are you sure abt that?

cz like most off ppl ik that can proceed to meds will have like at least 2A*2A for their Alevels

[burnt fox]

yeap :)

you still need to get a reference and stuff but it’s possible

[opal needle]

thats the thing.. im willing to further my A levels but there aren't any institutions offing that.. and thats really frustrating

[hearty robin]

Can you not take your A2 levels as a private candidate

I think to even get into a foundation programme that’s recognised by the world health organisation you need A2 to get in

[opal needle]

i haven't thought of that. ill do more research on it thanks

Hi Guys

I need help from all of you 🙂

So basically a summary of myself:
I am a computer science geek and I love CS too much. I wanna get into a UK Russell Group Uni
(For CS), I have currently finished IGs and I am at AS level currently and hopefully going to A2 / A levels in the future. I am willing to do anything to achieve this and I mean it. One more thing, I am an international student so if this makes me any different from a normal UK student please let me know 👍

Here are my problems:
My school is highly limiting and only allows 6 subjects for IGs and 3 for A levels, I have taken 6 Igs with 2A* for CS and Physics, 3 As, for maths, Chem and Business, 1 B for First Language English
I am doing my AS exam in May/June next year and I am planning to do 3 A levels as that is the maximum.

My questions:
Should I take more IGs or redo them, and if so what are the IGs I should do and when if possible so I could prepare for it and not miss the deadline for the resume submission?
Should I take an extra A-level and AS-level subject and if so which?
Any tips to get into the university would be lovely to hear.

Il be forever grateful for this advice you guys give me 🥰

I am really new to this whole procedure and life has been difficult for me to catch up to

[strange prawn]

Good day, folks I want to ask if anyone here has any ideas on where I should start and what topics come in basic since I don't know much about computer science and my test is on December 12th (it's the basic one like so basic). I was initially studying medical but I was unable to pass the entrance test, so I'm now studying computer science. I would be very grateful if anyone here could offer guidance on where to start and what supplies are fundamental.

[cedar summit]

if we are talking basics then start with binary representation and spiral from there

you could google up the syllabus of A level computer science, 9618 for ideas of study material

AS level syllabus if we are strictly talking basics

[noble pier]

hello everyone.
could you guys help me in choosing a good course to do after a levels(phy,chem,bio and fl eng)?

[cedar summit]

with chem and bio you could do medicine, doctor, biotechnology for a mix of everything
petrochemical if we focus on chem and phy

I would say most engineering fields but like those usually need maths too

or you could completely branch out into computer science simce you'd usually start from scratch anyway but then again you might need maths

depends on the uni I guess

[wispy latch]

for UK universities, do they need a reference letter from every subject lecturer? or is just 1 reference letter sufficient from one chosen lecturer?

[tranquil summit]

Just 1

[wispy latch]

ok thanks

[safe owl]

Gave +1 rep to Aishwarya#7376

[lime heart]

which is better? choosing 5 courses where 2 are from the same uni or 2 from two separate unis?

[tranquil summit]

it'll likely be the same admissions team looking at the different applications for the same uni if the courses are similar enough

[finite blaze]

Hey

Can someone tell me the advantages of A-levels in igcse board and in which aspects it would help me in the future

I don't know what I'm going to do yet but I'll probably do business studies or literature so I don't think A-levels would be of any help right?

And which colleges are best for business studies in India?

[tranquil summit]

Is there an alternative you're comparing it to?

You need some form of 11th and 12th to enter uni

[lime heart]

Is that a bad thing?

[tranquil summit]

not necessarily, i just think youll have a similar chance of getting in for both courses no?

[twilit mulch]

Wait what

IGCSE's are like the pre-requisite exams for A-levels

A-levels is what you apply to university with, the only IGCSE's that are mandatory is maths IG and English IG

You can't just do IGCSEs and quit then if you want to end up at uni

[lime heart]

Not exactly

[keen walrus]

Hey, I was wondering if anybody is studying medicine in the UK?

[burnt fox]

I mean i did all the research for it, but applying for bio hem now

if u have a question i’ll most likely know it :)

[keen walrus]

ooh okayy so I actually wanted to know like an average fee you would be expected to pay for enrolling into a medical school

[burnt fox]

right if ur a uk citizen/national it would be about 10,000 - 12,000 quid per year but if ur a international its gonna be about 50,000 - 60,000 ( ik oxbridge is that much) quid per year

it’s quite expensive if ur international

[keen walrus]

oh damn 😭 that is pretty expensive, thanks for answering btw

[tranquil summit]

Bruh 50?? Non medicine is £21-25k outside of Oxbridge and London

Also Oxbridge is unnecessarily expensive

just apply

atleast give it a shot

[lime heart]

sigh

alright...

[burnt fox]

don’t worry about it :) loads of unis have low predicted requirements

the worst that happens is u don’t get in anywhere. In the end you’ll will get the alevels grades and you can call up the unis and say this and this, or email them ur personal statement ana d stuff and see what happens

[lime heart]

ik that

I have other choices but they insisted on me applying to my dream one anyway

[burnt fox]

yea apply to ur dream one

yes you may not get in, but at least u tried

they say 2 aspirational, one at ur level and 2 below ur level or smth along those lines

as long as u got a good range then dw

[cedar summit]

aim high so you can at least land in the middle

and who knows, maybe you'll get in
never know until you try

[turbid zealot]

Yeah it’s usually like that you take one dream two you know you can get into and two as back up in case you don’t make requirements

Hello guys

I need help

I want to apply to UK universities as an international student and try to get financial aid...what's the process?

[burnt fox]

apply to unis, wait till you get accepted and they ask u for fee status

same for any fees tbh

then u fill out a form that should include financial aid stuff

and there ya go

[stray kite]

@burnt fox I want to apply via UCAS but I cant find info about my profile and grades

[burnt fox]

are you still in school?

like will a teacher send ur ucas

[stray kite]

Yeah

[burnt fox]

did you put that buzzword thing in?

[stray kite]

i did not see anywhere to put it in?

[burnt fox]

once you fill in all the info u can then u pay and send it, it goes to a teacher and they would add predicted grades and everything

[burnt fox]

ohh then i’m not too sure, you should message ur teacher and say i need to connect it to the school

[stray kite]

okay thanks

people who are asking questions like does a uni accept international students

I agree

With what ramen says here

Most of the stuff asked here are you easily google able

You don’t exactly need an answer

[tranquil summit]

Tbf tho websites are made to make them look better than they are

So asking people's opinions of how it actually works is good

[void glen]

yes but questions like if a uni accepts international students and what it’s grade requirements are

the website isn’t going to tell you the wrong thing lol

[tranquil summit]

But the minimum grade requirment isn't necessarily the median grade

Which the website doesn't tell you

[void glen]

the answer is still probably going to come from the internet

I just think people should start doing their own research at this stage

[tranquil summit]

For sure yes but it's also daunting on where to start and it's not like people are pinging you personally lol

If there are people who will answer their questions then let them

do you have to have already done ielts when applying through ucas

or do you just need to have it before accepting a university's offer

[turbid zealot]

Varies from uni to uni

Check up on their webpage

[turbid zealot]

But I think if you haven’t done it it’s fine like you can do it after you get accepted

But better to check either way

[limber panther]

ohh thats good to hear thank you

[burnt fox]

question - would a university ask you for your fee status if they weren’t already considering you?

[tranquil summit]

It's admin so it might have nothing to do with the decision

They might be completely different teams doing these things

actually i searched up the lady who sent the email asking for that stuff and she’s an undergraduate admissions officer

^^

[forest laurel]

will it be a problem

if i take 2 subjects

in A2

I have 3 subjects currently in my AS

welp

[elfin junco]

Most universities require 3 A2s at least

[median jackal]

if u gonna bitch about it simply dont ask ffs.

[nocturne torrent]

-.-

[nimble kelp]

ik that some colleges accept 2 AS subjects instead of an A2, so maybe if u can take an additional AS sub on top of the two A2 subjects. Or look for colleges that accept 2 A2 + 1 AS subjects

[severe heart]

there are unis that accept 2 A Levels but you need something to go with it like either 1-2 more AS Levels or 3 IGCSE's. For example im planning to apply to some unis in my country with 2 A levels and 3 IGCES , but pls check the unis you want to go to bec every uni has its own requirements and this doesnt apply everywhere, ideally tho you want to have 3 A levels as its the 'safer' route

Tho if you are aiming for the top tier universities i dont fancy your chances with anything less than 3 A Levels , again it all comes down to the uni's you are interested in

[outer nacelle]

i d say counseling agencies know the best! hire one if it’s really needed:)

[outer nacelle]

the thing is most unis have a point based system. like A* is 3 points per subject. So more the subjects the better cuz it will increase your points. And obviously some have a set requirement in regards to number of subjects and which subjects

[tranquil summit]

IDP is free btw if they work with the country you want

yuppp i’m aware and they’re really good

[minor terrace]

what about ajman university

or sharjah?

[minor terrace]

why dont you plan on studying there??

[jaunty basalt]

I live here too, and to put it, simply, there are much better options in other countries, and a lot of universities in the UAE are overpriced too

[indigo oar]

because i'm planning on going ivy league, i've got bigger dreams than what the UAE has to offer. i'm pretty sure the best uni here is only like top 200.

[indigo oar]

i've never even heard of this one

[indigo oar]

sharjah's mid, it's in like top 600

[candid torrent]

[grim steppe]

[jaunty basalt]

i agree wholeheartedly, the universities here don't have much to offer

[loud brook]

if a university has ABB as entry requirement and you get AAC is it okay ??

[tranquil summit]

depends on what subject you get the C in

if its a core requirement then it might not be

[loud brook]

maths is the only subject i need an A in

i am really bad at chem

so is that okay?

[tranquil summit]

so your C was in chem?

[loud brook]

yes

[tranquil summit]

what are you applying for? also check their website

[loud brook]

computer science

[tranquil summit]

if its not too competitive it might be okay

in any case, look for info from them and if not then just apply

[loud brook]

alr thanks

[tranquil summit]

worst you get is rejected

[loud brook]

[tranquil summit]

Hiii guys, does anyone know any good engineering university in Cyprus??

[dapper bronze]

woahh, been a while

[hybrid star]

north?

[dapper bronze]

waiting for UK offers now

[raw belfry]

will taking cs as the fourth subject and scoring good in it, increase my scholarship chances?

i plan to study engineering in university

For A levels, I plan to study physics, chemistry, mathematics and either cs or bio

which one should i choose between cs and bio

[void glen]

drop bio unless you want to do med

[raw belfry]

but for biotechnology, don't I need to know about biology?

[tranquil summit]

what degree is it? is it engineering?

also check requirements in the country you want to study, it may not be necessary

as an engineering degree, they might have a biology crash course at least thats what my sisters uni did

since they expected students of engineering background

[raw belfry]

i want to study them in either australia, usa, canada, japan, uk or in the netherlands

[tranquil summit]

check at least one in each country

[raw belfry]

btw does Netherlands offer full scholarships to non-eu students?

[tranquil summit]

no idea

it'd be uni specific

[raw belfry]

alright thanks a lot

[tranquil summit]

no worries!

[tranquil summit]

if it helps, BSc Biotechnology in manchester has bio on the list but not necessary

but keep in mind its a BSc and not a BEng/ BTech

[void glen]

you could take bio chem phy math

that meets most requirements

hey guys! I'm planning to take automotive engineering in germany since it's one of the best places to do so if i wanna get into the car industry in the future; but from what i researched, some of the universities that are good in automotive eng are ranked quite low to the point its above top 1000s or even 3000s, do you guys think university ranking matters in the long run? (this is for undergraduate/bachelors degree) thanks!

[dapper bronze]

Advice from an A2 student
I’m assuming you wanna get into the manufacturing and designing industry under automobiles right? Well for starters good luck with your endeavors! University ranking may effect job opportunities as I am told, so getting into a top 100 give a higher likely hood of companies hiring you on the spot. Of course, after your bachelors, aiming for a masters for mechanical engineering may reap a few more benefits to which a higher rank university may provide with.

Ranking actually depends on a few categories. You have the student experience, the individual course itself, the student to staff ratio, employment after graduation percentage, course satisfaction, and sooo many more factors. Yes, Germany is a great place to do automotive engineering, but be cautious. Just because <insert country> is good for <insert industry> doesn’t mean that every single university is made for automotive engineering, especially if those that have a low course ranking.

My recommendation is to go over the course satisfaction and the employability and find about 3 unis that have a good balance between all the factors. Do speak to your student counselor of you have one! And remember! I’m still doing A2, so take or leave my advice 🤪

[gilded wasp]

Alright! Thank you so much. Do you have any suggestion on where to get credible sources on employability or the course satisfaction over the years ( such as by alumni ) or something?

Start with this one
https://www.topuniversities.com/university-rankings/university-subject-rankings/2022/engineering-technology

You can also look for a program here

https://www.topuniversities.com/programs?qs_qp=topnav

[gilded wasp]

For the employability too?

[dapper bronze]

It should be there..

I’ll give a check

https://www.topuniversities.com/student-info/careers-advice/having-degree-enough-land-you-top-job

So according to this article, what matters most are transferable skills

Find yourself a good uni with a course that provides hands on experience and practicals in their course modules

For the course modules, you’re gonna have to check each one of them individually, but if you send the unis here, I can help getting the course list

[gilded wasp]

Such as vocational trainings I believe?

[tranquil summit]

Internships usually

is studying medicine in egypt worth it ?

[compact sorrel]

[compact sorrel]

every website is diff from the other im so lost

[limber panther]

[compact sorrel]

Europe?

[limber panther]

is it unlikely to get into LSE without doing further maths?

[cedar hollow]

Well I am not studying med in egypt but somewhere else and I think I can answer the "Is studying medicine in [Insert Country] worth it" questions

Let me start with first of all, what are you looking for?

Saving money? Want a hot/cold country to live in? Want to live away from your parents? Etc

Generally in terms of curriculum, by the time you finish med school, Im fairly certain all med schools would've taught you the same stuff
