    A levels Levels
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the excitement and anxiety of finishing A Levels and awaiting results, with a focus on personal aspirations and future plans. One participant expresses a mix of sadness about leaving school and optimism about achieving high grades (A,A,A,A* and distinction) in subjects like chemistry, physics, mathematics, and astronomy. They plan to study physics at university, specifically mentioning Cardiff University, and are considering switching to a physics with astronomy degree after the first year. Concerns about practical work in the physics program are shared, with reassurance offered that practical skills can be managed. The conversation also touches on the importance of profiles for better engagement and the challenges of advanced theoretical topics in physics. Overall, the thread highlights the transitional phase from school to university and the shared experiences of students navigating this change.

Finished A Levels!
yay:biggrin:
now i have to wait over a month to get results , hmm.(im sure like many of u)

bit sad to leave skl tho :frown: i'll miss the place, friends, teachers, familiar faces.

anyway wish me luck, I'm aiming for...
A,A,A,A* and distinction(I wish(!) made a lot of silly mistakes which may have cost me. so frustrating), for chem, phys maths astronomy(GCSE) and phys AEA, then i'll be doing physics at uni although i only need ABC
o:) :blushing:

P.S. Good Luck! all you people out there waiting for results!
 
Physics news on Phys.org
hey what university r u going to ?
What type of physics ? general?
how many yrs 3 or 4 ?
are you doing physics alone..or phys with...?
what are you planning to do after university?
don't worry about those silly mistakes plus u only need abc ..
good luck with your results ...i don't know the date of ur message ...---time traveler---
 
lol wasn't expecting replies, ...---time traveler--- eh?
im doing 4 years physics at Cardiff Uni, i might change the degree to phys with astronomy at end of first year depending on how it goes. (dates at the top of the message, above my username). I am scared of practical work, but cardiff doesn't do plain theoretical degree, so i'll have to manage.
what about you? your profile doesn't shed much light on you.

yeah i should add something to my profile..,in fact i will ,i would say that you shouldn't worry too much about practical work that shouldn't be a problem...you must really love maths (not a statement ..said in a sarcastic tone or something) to do theoretical...quantum field theory in your last year or unification or something like that those are killers...
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation. This article's date received is 2022-11-15...
