Reasons why I'm currently shizzing myself.

1. Exam results come out in 5 days
2. Moving to Solihull in 6 days
3. College interview in 13 days
4. College starts in 23 days
5. I don't know anyone in Solihull
6. All of the reasons above multiplied by infinity
Is anyone else worried as hell about the exam results? I know I am. I know it sounds awful, but I really don't want to get any Bs. One I'd be okay with, but any more and I'd be disappointed. I wish so bad that things didn't start going wrong after Easter, my predicted grades aren't going to happen. My predicted grades were:

  • Maths A*
  • Science A*
  • RE A*
  • Business Studies A
  • Textiles A
  • ICT A
  • French A
  • English A/B
  • English Lit A/B

What I think I'll get:

  • Maths A*
  • Science A*
  • RE A*
  • Business Studies A
  • French A
  • Textiles B
  • ICT B
  • English B
  • English Lit C

I know it's not THAT bad, in fact it's pretty good - 16 out of a possible 27 points if I do how I think I've done - plus the 2 from the other science GCSE, but you know when you set yourself goals and you're determined to get them? Its like that, except they're not goals, they're like personal targets... 'something you want so, so bad', as Sherman Klump once said. My predicted grades are the things I want 'so, so bad'. Besides, I don't want to go to a trashy university. Southampton is where I'd like to go, and the required grades at GCSE aren't that difficult to reach [seven Bs for medicine] but it's unlikely that I'll go there because I live quite far and I won't get to see my family much, so Birmingham university would be much better. The thing is though, Birmingham is... Birmingham. No offence, but all I've seen there is trashy people. There's a very fine line between outgoing and trashy. Southampton is only a little better, but I know Southampton. I have a house there [well, it's not mine but my parents said they'd rent it to me cheaper - and my friends if any friends need a place] and I have tonnes of great friends [Hi Farzaneh!] plus I know my way round, it's not going to be difficult looking for the shops or a library or the cinema. Birmingham on the other hand... I don't think it even has a library. 60% of the people there aren't even literate, I swear. I read some of the stuff they scribble onto the bus stops; 'I want to hav Darline's babyes' that is NOT how you spell babies. Besides, guys cant have babies. Unless it was a girl who said it, but lesbians can't have babies together either xD Duuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhhhh.



I think I'll write a pros and cons list of Birminham and Southampton later. Nighty nightypoo my dear loves xXx

*chuckle*

dw, im shizzing myself, as you put it. I know, i screwed up soo badly, but i worked so frikking hard for it, i think i would have done soo much better if i wasn't so nervous. i've been going to the classes for 5 years or something, which is sooo sad. also for one whole year, i went to my teachers house for ages, after school, every week. i want an A*, but right now, i'd be happy with an A

the scores you thought you would get are great though :)

dw about uni, you've got 2 years to decide it. i would love for you to go to southampton, but don't choose the convient one, choose the best uni for medicine, you'll do so much better that way

dont choose the convient one, also consider other uni's. as far away as it maybe, it could make such a big difference in your job. i love southampton but even though the uni would be a 5 min walk from my house, i dont think i would go there. in your cv, southampton uni, isnt the most impressive thing. i want to go to oxford, its about an 1 hour away from soton but it speciallises in medicine. if you got an interview for a job, they would proably accept u straight away just for going to oxford. other things count, but choose the best.

It's not! xD Bham have the same requirements as Oxford and Cambridge! :P

When it comes to job intervies and stuff, it's a bit different when it comes to medicine, I'll explain later =D

but still, cambridge is the second best in the world [[i think]]
so if its the same requirments, go there. :D

cambridge is second best, but i'm pretty sure that oxford sepciallises in medicine.
