GCSE Post-Mortem
Okay. Seven As (including in Physics and Maths, wtf), three Bs, three Cs. The Cs were in doss subjects, though, so I'm not upset as I could be. However, two of the Bs were in German and Latin. Oh dear.
Basically, this means saying goodbye to Cambridge, for undergraduate level at least. I'm...not exactly happy about that, but I think I'll survive. It does mean I need a UCL tag now, because I don't think I'll be entirely happy unless I get into a G5 (or at least Golden Triangle) uni. And UCL is slightly less competitive, and hey--at least I won't have to say goodbye to London if I apply there, so that's all good. I'm thinking UCL comes first, then Edinburgh, then...I don't know. Maybe SOAS. Mehwell, maybe Cambridge wouldn't have been the best place for me after all (although damn it, I wish I'd got the grades to get in).
Latin, I think, has been sorted out. We're trialing it for a half term, and if that works out, then I'll continue for the next two years; if not, I'll switch to German. Even with Latin I have nineteen free periods. Just like the arts-science divide! :D
ETA: Worked out why I have so many free periods. There's no trace of Critical Thinking on my timetable.
