Still considering. We didn't give it much consideration because didn't want to be too presumptuous. Today promos results just released. She's only interested in 1. Anyway, not that she want can get it. Shall take this week to consider. Is your DD taking too? -
normally how many H3 subjects can be taken? Or is one H3 subject already enough of killing ?

zeemimi, DD is very busy for these 2 weeks with PW. She has put side this matter until she is free to think.
So I also dont know if she plans to take up any H3 subject. -

It might also be of some use to UK and US applicants. I've only ever seen two UK offers which included H3s, though H3s might be a good way of demonstrating an interest in the subject for the personal statement. The US unis just generally like to see that students have taken the most difficult course load possible, especially the top tier ones.
Mostly for scholarship applications. Or if you want to get a headstart before entering university. Its not really required for university admissions. A student with straight As with just 3H2/1H1 can still get into medicine and it won't be any easier for you just because you have a H3 or even 4H2.isetan:
Hi,
Can anyone advise what's the benefit of studying H3 as a subject for the A level?
It's also a pretty good way of finding out if you like/ are inclined towards a specific subject. I did H3 Game Theory, discovered I had little affinity with numbers, and then fled far away from Economics

Hi,
Can I check is there H3 subject in Literature? If so, what is the advantage in terms of admission into the uni? -

[/quote]the UK offers included H3 could be due to the candidate having included the H3 subject in the UCAS application and his/her teacher has supplied a predicted grade in it - hence the UK uni offers that indicated a required H3 grade.
it is like 'since you tell me how good you are then show it to me in the actual grades by meeting this offer condition'. -
Just wondering, how important are promos and prelim grades for early University applications for UK Medicine? Any one has any experience with applying through UCAS who can share? If I'm correct, I think they only ask for predicted grades and PW/H1 MT grades - is this true?
As for predicted grades, do JCs inform students or are the grades a 'secret'? For the reference to be submitted, does this refer to the school leaving testimonial that every graduating student receives, or do applicants have to approach a teacher to write a separate report and then get the teacher to submit it on their behalf? Or will students get to see this reference - what I mean is, will the teacher hand the reference back to the student after writing, and then the student submits it through UCAS himself?
Hope some kind souls can enlighten me. Thanks in advance.
