NEED HELP! I MEAN IT . A.S.A.P
« on: August 24, 2011, 05:50:57 pm »
Hi guys , some of you may remember you some of you may not :P anyway my results this year was 7 A* 1 A
bio , chem , phys , math , french , i.t , acc = A*  english 2nd lang = A..

NOW COMES THE DEADLY QUESTION
I want to do medicine next year in Canada , i just found out that i have a great chance of going there so all my plans changed.
To go to Canada i  have to do 3 A LEVELS to be on the safe side and actually getting a great chance of getting in a universty ( pre-med )

What i want to do is this THIS YEAR !
AS MATH + A LEVEL MATH . AS CHEMISTRY + A LEVEL CHEM  [EDEXCEL] . AS BIO  + AS french..

QUESTION 1 : DO YOU THINK IT IS POSSIBLE WITH ONLY 4 HOURS SLEEP FOR THE THE NEXT 9 MONTH?
QUESTION 2 : WHAT DO YOU THINK
NO secrets to SUCCESS , it is the result of 1.HARD WORK 2.GOOD PREPARATION 3.LEARNING FROM FAILURE
But it ain't how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward-Balboa

You need 3 A-levels but according to your choice there, am seeing only 2 complete A levels :-\

I'll advice you to take Biology complete A level as well ;)

ANd it's highly possible :D

Nice choice......now you just have to dedicate yourself to studies ;)

Seconded 8)

A level Math Edexcel is the easiest Subject you'll see in A level is what every A level student told me ;) so Don't Worry about it ...You just have to Practice Practice Practice .. you get it=]

A level chem Edexcel is easy if you work hard for it in AS but in A2 I hard it is much harder and demands more of the tudent's Attention but you can do it inshAllah ;)

A level Bio (Edexcel)  is what most people tell me is a Disaster so I suggest you take it from the CIE board ...  By the way I dropped Bio in AS , So ask other people to confirm ;)

If you need 3 A levels why are you taking 2 A levels and 2 AS ?  :-\ ???

I'm NOT an Expert in such matters but I know that Bio , Chem and Math A level are helpful in Medicine ,so I suggest you take them in A level ;)

Good Luck ;) ... May God be with you =]

Awesome score MA...I believe that will be quite a tight fit but it depends on how hard you are willing to work...judging by your score, I believe you'll make it  ;)

Now I have a question for you: I've heard in Canada you need to do a pre-med course before joing med-school typically lasting around 4 years...so what is the guarantee that you do get into med school, speaking as an international student with similar grades?

@ dancing banana- i think u need to maintain a gpa 4 in da four years of pre-med dat u do... den ulll to have to apper for MCAT ( dats like da entrance exam for medicals) where u have to score really high to get into da medical college... and bdw no.. ders no guranteee dat ull get accepted..( this is wat ive heard soo far...i can be wrong but its unlikely :P :P)

and yah congrats to both of u....great results.! ;D ;D ;D and to be honest...this sort of result is quite essential if u are an international student who is applyinng abroad..(it ill be easier for da scholarships)! ;D :D ;)

@DEADLY KING
well , what you need is 3 A Levels = 6 AS .  In my case 2 A lvl = 4 AS , then add 2 AS which are bio and french.

@Goldengirl
Thanks for your opinions because i know you have experienced the AS's yourself . and  like i said  to deadly king ^
Im not doing A lvl bio caz i think its going to be too hard. + i took A LVL chem caz my brother is studying phamracy and biotechnology and he said he can help me easily. !

@nikitA
good thing you finished you AS :d , and thanks for the advice on physics but i have freinds who are entered pre-meds and didnt take phys!anyway thanks

@mujtabam
Well you are perfectly right about the pre-med. Well i have a freind who entered McGill with 3 A lvls ( bio , chem , math ) + AS economics . The results were all A's . ill be taking AS french so that increases my chance as he told me , + i need to get the maximum grades + when i go to canada , i will be isA a permanent resident in  mmontreal,quebec , so that also increases the chance of getting acccepted vastly.
The only way im not like my freind is that he has A lvl bio and i just have AS. i pray that does not effect .!


thanks for your replies guys , your words are very encouraging seemingly that all of you guys said go for it. I will have private tuition and stuff but i just would like to get some advice of:

WHEN TO DO THE AS AND A LEVELS EXAMS , JAN OR JUNE AND WHICH ONES! or which papers , because i can distribute them!

@Kimo : You're Welcome =] .. Ya I get it now =]  As I said ,you have to take Advice from someone who took A level Bio ,not me ;) ... Good Luck ;)

I'll talk to you about Math :

Math C1 is Quite easy only issue is not Calculator =,= but the rest is quite easy and it's linked to C2 so I suggest you do it in Jan Along with either M1/S1/D1.

and A2 in June ;) ..It's better to do them together *A2* because it's linked to each other =]

I hope that helped =]

A CHANCE OF PLANS

AS + A LVL MATH ( EDEXCEL ) .+ AS CHEMISTRY (EDEXCEL ) + AS BIO ( CAMBRIDGE )
If god wished and say i get A* in the maths and A in chem and A in bio

you think i would still have a chance to any pre-med school in Canada?

If i don't i will be able to study here in egypt anyway , so i am safe ( NOT REALLY considering the situations in egypt)

First of all, congratulations for your good result. Keep up the good work!

Secondly, I had objections with your earlier scheme because it was overloaded, but this one can work fine. Of course, if you move up to finish your Chemistry and Biology A-Level next year; this, in itself, is insufficient qualification for a good Canadian university. But you can apply with this qualification--in fact, since you've studied French in IGCSE, I recommend that in your A2 your subject combination should be:
A2 CHEMISTRY, A2 BIOLOGY & AS+A2 FRENCH

French is a very important language in Canada, particularly Quebec, as you already know. It might even gain you scholarship and some preference when applying to medical schools in Canada. In general, this looks fine. :D You don't have to split your Math exams in January/March/May sessions, you can always appear in all of the components in just one--but since I'm not very well-versed in Edexcel I advise you consult your teachers or someone who is studying/had studied Edexcel. But if you don't appear for Mathematics in January, I suggest you appear for AS Biology. You'll have to memorize a lot of details but CIE AS Biology was pretty easy, so you might as well get over with it in January so you're left with only one subject concerned with memory and theory.
All that is on earth will perish:
But will abide (forever) the Face of thy Lord--full of Majesty, Bounty & Honor.
Then which of the favors of your Lord will ye deny?

all right , thanks for this wonderful advice but i'm a bit confused .

Are you saying that i should forget math? and just do AS+ A LVL CHEM and AS + A LVL BIO and AS + A LVL FRENCH this year

OR you were saying that i should do AS + LVL MATH , + AS BIO AND AS CHEM this year and then next year do the A levels of chem and bio and do both AS french and its A Level.?

sorry for the annoying questions !
