Unexpected
Aug. 14th, 2014 04:35 pmSpider's A Level results were good but disappointing by his high standards in practice exams. (Though he passed STEP!)
He's missed his offer from Nottingham, which is sad, but got Leicester, his insurance choice. However, he's decided, based on course content and advice from his Head of Science, that Sussex's Mathematics and Physics degree is better suited to him (more maths less space). He has the grades they want (plus some to spare) and they've made him an offer. So we're now waiting for clearing to open so he can reject Leicester, accept Sussex and start arranging accommodation. It's been quite a frantic day! Consolation/celebration curry coming up soon.
Looking forward to visits to Brighton and feeling very lucky that Nanamonkey lives in nearby Lewes and is willing to provide emergency accommodation if needed plus some non-emergency meals out in Brighton.
