i have this event that i need to go to, the dates only got confirmed yesterday and i forgot to ask for the day off. i want to swap shifts with someone but i’m not sure how i’d do that.
also i’m a trainee, i’ve only been working there for a couple of months. i have been trained everywhere thought. just wondering if there is any restriction on trainees when it comes to dropping/swapping shifts.
had a successful remark so i got into my firm.
i got the remark back last week and i called my firm and they said UCAS hasn’t sent my updated grade.
UCAS operator was a bit confused to, and said i needed to check if the IB is gonna send the grade or if i have to.
i am genuinely so confused and i would just like my place confirmed on the programme 😭 there is no direct answer for this online
anyone who applied to uni via UCAS and had to have a grade remarked, please help!
hi!! i needed a 7 in biology to get into my dream uni, and i was 2% marks (3 raw marks across P1B and P2) away from a 7.
After reviewing my component marks (listed below), i decided to remark, since my P1A was already strong (and keeping in mind they don’t remark it), and i felt that P2 went better, since in P2 section B, i did the 2 human biology questions that i felt stronger in.
component marks before:
P1A: 37/40
P1B: 31/35
P2: 53/80
my remarked resulted in a 4% increase :)) from 76% to 80% (TZ2 grade boundaries were crazy)
so this is your sign to remark!!!
i did the IB diploma and missed my UCL contextual offer by 1 IB point. I got 35 points and I needed 36 points. They also wanted 665 in my HLs and I got 666, currently remarking to see if I can get an extra point. I had extenuating circumstances throughout exams which the IB has already accounted for.
I did a lot of research and found out that the lowest grade that UCL have accepted for med is AAA (the equivalent of 666). I also found that out of 54 people on the waitlist, 3/54 were accepted and the following year was 4/54.
I don’t know what happens to my UCL offer now, am I on a waitlist? Has anyone been in this (quite rare) situation before, and what was the outcome?
I’d really appreciate any advice or encouraging words. I can’t do GEM or go abroad to study medicine. it really is my passion in life (i know this sounds a bit delusional but it’s true).
IB results day is on monday 6th july this year, and UCAS gets our results on 5th July. My questions are:
Can I check UCAS on the 5th July to see if I got into my firm?
Can I check UCAS at 8am on 6th July to see if i got into my firm (similar to A-level results day)?
Theres no really clear answer to this anywhere else so I came onto this subreddit looking for answers. Any advice/insight is welcome and much appreciated!!
Good luck to M26 IB students who are waiting, not long now :)
edit: removed a question because it basically repeated the second question.
just a post to let people tell their stories and have a positive spin on ib results day. saw this on the 6th form subreddit and took inspo haha
just need some hope bc it’s less than a month away now. let’s hear your stories!!
