Well I was born in Southampton, and I moved to NI when I was 4 just after my parents split up. Dad stayed down in Southampton so anytime my younger brother and I were visiting him, he would take us to SMS if we were playing at home, which we usually were strangley enough! Yeah I know it would take a lot to go down to a C, so that's why I haven't really thought about it so much. It's just the most likely subject of mine that would drop below what is required :p Maths and ICT are pretty certain to be fine though. What subjects did you do anyways?
Well living in Northern Ireland, no matter where you live you are pretty much in the arsehole of nowhere! I don't mind not being in a big city, but as long as it's relatively easy to get there. I'm used to not getting to Saints games. I used to be able to get to about one or two home games a season, but I haven't been to a game since 2009. Well yes, in theory! I'm even sitting on an A from AS! But with Physics, it's so unpredictable...I'm definitely not counting my nuclei-filled chickens just yet <laugh>
Loughborough is pretty cool actually. It's sorta like a step up from where I live right now in terms of size, like I didn't think I could go straight into moving to a big city. It's right in the middle of England too, so obviously I'm within reasonable distance of a lot of major cities if I ever chose to attend any away games. Hell even Southampton is like two and a half hours away by train so I'm making sure I get down for P*mpey! And no, no Aero friends unfortunately! :p I don't feel as if I struggled, like I gave most of the paper a fair go. But it was definitely tough, and I'm definitely hoping scaling works in my favour...it's quite intense actually! I haven't thought about it much, so I haven't really been nervous at all about it. I don't feel as if I screwed it up badly enough to drop to a C. Like we're talking around a 30 mark buffer here!
Well I'm big into F1, and most other motorsports really. I never got the chance to get into karting or whatever, so I figured go into designing the cars themselves. I half-assed a lot of mine too. I'm slightly worried about Physics because it's the one that's most likely to drop below a B. I think I had just enough of a buffer to keep a B though. Fingers crossed! I know a few people who want to do Law, seemed to be a very popular course for around here...I'm one of the only people wanting to do Aeronautical Engineering :p
Loughborough hopefully, for Aeronautical Engineering. A and two Bs will do it, so I should just about make it! Just depends on Physics pretty much. Are you around 18 too then? Where are you hoping to get into?
I tailed off a bit as 606 was on it's dying legs, but I always liked the Saints crowd :) I love this forum though, so much more banter without risking the wrath of the admins!
