    oops sorry i just realised you're already in year 1 at birmingham. what was the interview like? and btw, what does it mean when a uni states you need 5A*s or 6A*s for GCSE? is it like the A1s in singapore O levels?
    cos these are my O level grades:

    emaths-A1
    a maths-A2
    chem-B3
    Bio-B3
    geog-A2
    combined humanities-A1
    english-A2
    chinese-A2

    so do i still stand a chance?
