Bro you taught yourself an A level!!! That's amazing especially as you managed to get a B even though it was completely down to you!!

[@thatonecharlie]

Aaahh thank you so much. It’s soo difficult especially with no direction from teachers whether your doing it right!!!

[@jason-os3jg]

lol I taught myself all of a level econ and got a*

Js.24z so did I lmao

[@GP-eq3gh]

Js.24z how did you manage your time and motivate yourself? When did you start revising?

[@Abcdefg47363]

im a bit late but in this same position, how exactly did you manage to mark your essays?@@jason-os3jg

[@isiali4501]

My results day was practically indentical, I needed A*AA but got A*AB but they thankfully still let me in. I don’t care tho cause I hate physics and it doesn’t deserve to be an A. I’m so excited to start at Durham come october 😭😭😭

[@thatonecharlie]

Ahhh very similar! But CONGRATS!! We both still made it in! And those are still amazing grades to be proud of!

[@isiali4501]

I’m unbelievably proud, and you should be proud too! What’s stressing me out, since I assume your in the same boat since we are both near miss candidates, is that my college won’t stay the same so I’m just constantly refreshing my emails waiting for a confirmation 😂😂

[@thatonecharlie]

Yesss definitely! I just hope I stay in the same college! But I think we might have to wait until Monday. Good luck!!

[@eggsystilleggsy45]

This man taught himself ,himself! a whole A level and smashed a B

[@thatonecharlie]

ahaha thank you :))

[@ichoosenottosee6386]

Wow, you taught yourself ancient history A-Level and got a B?! That’s amazing! I also did Ancient History and got a B as well (with the help of my teachers of course, lol) It’s so rare to find people that have actually taken this A-Level.

[@thatonecharlie]

Aha yeah I did, thank you! and yeah It's pretty rare to find other people who also took it. So congrats to you too. I wish I had access to a teacher, would have made life much easier :)

[@ichoosenottosee6386]

ThatOneCharlie Thank you! (: Teachers honestly make such a big difference. Without the help of my amazing, wonderful teachers, I would’ve probably done really bad.

[@flankweaver]

[@victoriagibson7828]

ThatOneCharlie thanks!! A large chunk of it will be ancient history which is what I’m passionate about. That would be cool, what college were you allocated?

[@thatonecharlie]

I was allocated to Cuths but because I’m a near miss candidate my college now could change so I don’t know! Just a nervous wait for now :((

[@victoriagibson7828]

ThatOneCharlie oh that sucks I’m sorry! I hope it works out for you- I got Van Mildert so I’m super pleased!

[@TheDropdeadZed]

Amazing job, this is relatively late I guess but I found your video when searching and clicked because Durham. I missed my offer for maths by one grade and they also let me in. Interesting to see if that's quite common from them this time around. Idk if you'll respond but what time did your track last update? Mine was like 10pm of the night before lol, so it might have been a last minute decision from them. I feel so lucky though, and so grateful I didn't have to deal with clearing or insurance accommodation.

[@thatonecharlie]

Thank you so much. Congrats on yourself getting in too. I did think they would be quite strict with grades so maybe they had spaces left as like you my track updated about 7pm on the 14th. So it must have been quite a last minute decision, so it makes me feel very lucky also!

[@OtterOnTheDaedalus]

A theory I have seen around is that basically no EU students want to risk it and thus those places geteft unfilled.

I like to aim high!! I started off by retaking my English lit but in February time I dropped it and obviously teaching myself ancient history I had predicted grades of AA for both of them, so I think my choices were kinda justified!
