Tips to get A* in A'levels

[IN NEED OF HELP]

Guys I did GCSE A-Levels by Cambridge International Examinations and I got 2 C's and 2 D's. However I have good SAT score. I secured 1360 in SAT 1 which includes Mathematics and English. I also did IELTS and secured 6.5 out of 9.0. Is this score good enough to get admitted in USA and getting scholarship?

Most US universities require TOEFL not IELTS so your IELTS score would be a waste/not needed for most universities. Your A-level results are average, your SAT score is average too(for good universities) so it's unlikely that you would get admitted in the USA(in a good university) let alone, be offered a scholarship/financial aid. Your SAT 2 score also matters, and unless you have exceptional extra curriculars, it's highly unlikely that you would be admitted in a US university with financial aid.

I remember that there was a senior in my school who had a sat score of 1100, 5As+rest Bs in olevels and 3Bs in alevels. He ended up getting into michigan state university for 80% financial aid because he had incredible extra curriculars(debating, sports, leadership positions).

If you are aiming to lower end unis like community colleges then I guess it is fine, otherwise not sure

I am applying to uni whose acceptance rate is 76%.

Yeah you can easily end up on community colleges. Financial aid for such unis would be difficult to get still. It comes down to your extra curriculars really... just show the uni you are an all-rounded student and you're giving yourself a solid chance.

Guys how do US Unis convert A-Level grades into their GPA out of 4.0?

They have a scale on which each grade has a score out of 4 with A*/A being 4 and U being 1. Then they sum up the scores and divide it by the number of subjects to get your final GPA. Google the proper scale on which they score the grades.

Hello. I appeared for AS this year, chem, bio, phy and went onto score straight Ds. Now I'm planning to give accel of all 3 subjects next year, I understand all the topics of chem+bio well and was well prepared during AS papers too but unfortunately didnt practice past papers early enough. The point is I can do bio+chem well and have tutors for it. I am a private candidate. The thing is I am not that good at physics because I'm unable to find a decent tutor who knows well himself, hence is able to teach a not so good at physics student as me. Should I go for self study? I never understood work, power and energy but recently studied it online and now get all the past papers questions due to hardwork. Is doing well with at least a B in physics AS+A2 possible by self study? P.S:not a fan of physics but am being forced to do it since it's one of the requirements for medical!

Hey I need ur help can you email me at [email protected] regarding AS practicals?

Try doing a lot of pastpapers. If you have a good grip on them, you can surely make it.
You'll need help for practicals though.

Why the Practical of AS Chemistry is so damnn hard?
I practiced it alottt but end up with D in P33...my question is what should one do to get best in practical ?

I think that asking your teacher for extra lessons on practicals is best for you....at least do 2 practicals each week you will be good

And notes for the theory parts which are expected to come in the practical paper...
Thanks in advance.

How much confident are you on each subject?

I'm very confident on C.S, Maths will be okay too, but Physics scares me.
