Who has a son or daughter taking A2 that includes one or more A* ?
Join me in nail-biting and envy of the 'easy' AAA offer holders.
DD needs AAA for her first choice, (Oxford) insurance is a nice AAB (Bristol) but she reeeally wants Oxford (Bristol looks wonderful too, but apart from anything else, if she goes there as her insurance she might not even get a place in halls, which wouldn't be a great start)
A just seems so relentless - 90% overall in A2 year. One bad exam can blow it all out of the water. She is on track for AAA at the moment, and resitting a rogue January module to hopefully bring the A back within reach for her third subject. But it all seems so dependent on a couple of hours in the exam room!
I suppose I should just be grateful that it's only one A required, I know Cambridge and some of the London Unis can make offers for two or three
