College

[Axel]

I'm pumped to go back. I'm SOSOSO ready to be back at college.

I propose a dorm/apartment photo sharing session once we're all moved in to our respective living spaces!

I agree! I'll post mine once I get situated - I move in tomorrow, but I won't get there until tomorrow afternoon/evening and Sunday is my birthday, so it might take me a bit to get everything organized & whatnot.

I'm pretty pumped to move back too since it's my first year in an apartment... but I have band starting on Monday and I'm NOT ready for that.

I'm really worried. I get my A Level results on Thursday. Really, i'd rather find out whether I got into University first before getting my results. It would be me feel better because then i'd know what to expect.

You can!! I'm sure everyone said that at 12am tomorrow night [wednesday night] the UCAS site will show whether your in or not ... I'm staying up to find out but dont hold me to it because its just what I've heard!! Ah i'm so worried and I even already have my results ... GOOD LUCK

 

[marypops!]

I heard that it's 6:00am on Thursday. It's still before I get my results, so that's OK.

 

[Cinderella90210]

Oh really, well I'll just stay up at 12 and see and then look again in the morning, I'm not too bothered anymore lol

 

[JulielovesDisney]

How does the whole college system work over where you guys are?

 

[Cinderella90210]

Well basically we have this site called UCAS and we do all the applications through that... You get a limit of 5 choices and all the replies/decisions are made through that so we just have to track one site for any changes. Our results are then given from the exam boards straight to UCAS who then tell the unis and then the unis tell UCAS the decisions who then change our status so we don't really have much to do and as long as we keep up to date with the UCAS site then its a really easy process.
With like the results, one of my places changed the status automatically because I had surpassed the conditional offer but when you try and change things on it and talk to the unis without going through UCAS thats when it get complicated.

I know that you can also apply directly to some universities though but mostly everyone has to use UCAS! Hope thats not too confusing, when I was first told about it couldnt get my head around it

Oh ok..I understand how it works. That's interesting, and it almost seems easier in a way.

Whats the system like in the US then [or wherever you are] ???

 

[KidGoofy]

I just got my schedule and I have to wake up at 8 on Monday Wednesday and Friday...so ridiculous lol. But those days I end early

It's your second option. We apply to schools directly.

Ewww. Haha. I had an 8:30 class last fall that I had to leave my room for at 8 (so I could get there in time). Yeah... waking up that early is NOT fun. But, then again, I'm definitely not a morning person.

This semester I only have class on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. I'm only taking 14 hours/credits this semester and I'm taking a 5 hour/credit online class, so I won't actually be in class a lot, which is really nice.

I moved in last Saturday, but I've been SOOOO busy so I haven't even been able to organize my room enough for it to be picture-worthy, so I'll post a picture once everything is all organized and stuff

So, I got into Kingston My A Level results were BCC. B for Geography, and C for Biology and Psychology. I was lucky with Biology. I checked the percentage of each subject, and Biology was just over 60%, which is a C.

I move in tomorrow. I am extremely nervous. I'm also excited but mostly nervous.
