So yeah, I got my results.
Also when this video comes out, I'll be on a biology residential trip for a few days and so most likely won't be looking at comments. Hope you guys enjoyed the video though :)
Hey Nouman! As a fellow aspiring medic who has just finished A-Levels in Bio, Chem and Maths, this video brought back (sometimes unpleasant) memories from last year!
Just some tips from me as you head into Year 13:
- Please don't underestimate the UCAT. The averages go up every year because everyone is getting better. If you don't feel 100% ready, don't hesitate to postpone it until you are.
- At the same time, if you're planning to do BMAT, please leave ample time between UCAT and BMAT. You don't want to be preparing for both at the same time! So many people didn't do this in my school and they got so stressed.
- Imo mocks were harder than the final exams, so don't be disheartened if you don't get what you want then, you'll be surprised by how much you'll improve in the months leading up to the real thing.
- Be really strategic about the med schools you apply to. Read all the admissions policies and see which schools favour your stats. I had quite a good UCAT, so I focused on more UCAT-heavy med schools. If you're doing BMAT too, then 2 UCAT + 2 BMAT unis is a good way to spread the risk.
- Collect all your question packs / past papers / topic booklets well before you plan to use them. That way you can gauge how long it will take to complete them so that you can better structure your revision schedule.
- For Bio, keep a running document of do's and don'ts of mark scheme language so that you know exactly what examiners want for each question. Keep a close eye on any notable diagrams and pictures - lots of them I saw in past papers were reused in my final exams!
Good luck for next year, I'm sure you'll smash it! I'm always on LinkedIn if you want to drop a message :)
Thank you so much for the advice! I'll definitely make the most of it. Best of luck with your own medical journey too
Can’t wait to join you on the college train next year! Gonna be revising non stop to get to your level
Wishing you the best for this new chapter! Honestly, you don’t even need to do an insane amount of revision, if you stay consistent each day like myself, by the end you’d only need to do like 2-4 hours of revision right before the exams and you’ll pull off great results. Sixth form is both equally more demanding but more fun so make sure to enjoy it also
Good job bro !
Congats! Glad you did well :)
Thanks so much!!
@@NoumanSami 😊
congratulationss and again thank you for getting me through those GCSEeeeees
nws now you better tell me what grades you get 😉
@@NoumanSami I MIGHT ACC MAKE A RESULTS DAY VIDEO BUT SURE
@@AOB2025 omgg you should, for the memories when you look back.
allahuma barik man, may allah swt allow you to continue on this path for the final exams
Jazakallah khair, inshallah same to you
Good job bro 👏
Thanks!
Well done ❤
Thanks so much :D
actually insane, allahumma barik
i wanna be like you in a year's time
Jazakallah khair, inshallah you’ll surpass me in a years time
Omg huge well done!! Im still awaiting most of my papers ( got one chem back so far) so I’m a bit nervous ahh 😂😂 your scores are insane so you should be so proud. :) congrats on all ur hard work!! 😊
THANKSS, let me know how the rest of your papers go
@@NoumanSami sure, just waiting for bio now :)
@@NoumanSamiI’ve got them all back now, and same as you - 3A*! So relieved 😅
@@GamerGirll36 nice that’s amazing!!
@@NoumanSami thank you same for you! 👌
Nouman, is there a way we could get your GCSE trp scs remnote flashcards?
Quick question! How important is the summer work that sixth forms give for us to do?
I’ll make an entire video on this but in a nutshell: not that important
LESS GOOO ALWAYS KNEW U COULD SMASH IT😊
THANKSS
congrats 🎉 you honestly make it look so easy
Keep us updated with your uni choices and let us know it your study routine changes - its clear that it works😂
Yes I’ll definitely keep you guys posted and thanks so much!
Well done 👍 🎉🙌🤝
Thanks!!
Mashallah great results u can tell that u put a lot of effort in ur eyes literally look sunken like u have got no sleep exams r over so rest g
Nah honestly my eyes are just like that, I’ve been getting a consistent amount of sleep in throughout the past couple weeks
@@NoumanSami tbh they look diff to Ur previous vids
Hi I’m too tired to watch the video what do you get
my school makes the papers them selves, especially from Bio and Chem you will never see a Q from a Past paper. in bio i had done so many past papers and memorised mark schemes and still got 60% in the exam.
Bio mark schemes are so silly honestly. I dropped random marks across the paper for the exact same reason as you even though I was really confident in those questions. It’s just dumb
yooo great results bro, beard is an A* too 😎👌
😭😭 appreciate it
could you please make a vid on how you revised for these? I feel like this would be helpful when i get into year 12!
Yep definitely
My mocks are coming soon. So are my ucats. I wish to achieve watchu got or even more
nouman are we seeing an oxbridge application?
Potentially
Can u apply to only 4 unis for medicine and dentistry in the uk or is it 5?!
It’s 4, the 5th has to be non-medicine or dentistry related
Allah humma barik. I hope my y12 will go great like this next year
Same rn just chilling after GCSEs but getting a bit bored now
@@Dshk10 ikr it feels weird that I’m not studying
I was in the same situation as you guys last year, take advantage of it because during y12 summer you will have a LOT on your plate
Desperately wanting my GCSE grades rn haha
Yeah that’s still a long way away 🥲
@@NoumanSamii hope I haven’t flopped any of them
@@NoumanSamihow should I deal with worrying about results day?
nah man I feel like such a loser, I’m in year 9 right now.
My school is so underperforming and my predicted grade are D/4.
Hopefully that will change when I go to another school where I’ll get grade 9s
Dw man you’re still in y9 you’ve got lots of time to change things, if it’s your school then hopefully a change in school will help
Hey Nouman, although it's late, I got all my mocks back for the subjects I'm doing this week
Maths - A (2 marks of A*)
Computer Science - A*
Music - C
Music Technology - Distinction*
Oh nice! What are you planning on doing for the future?
@@NoumanSami unsure at the moment but I know it's between music technology and computer science
@@e.antony01 fairs, well best of luck either way for the future
can u do a vid on how you revised for each?
Yepp of course, lots of videos coming about these exams in the next few weeks
Do you also do As level where you get actual qualifications
Nah they don’t exist anymore if I’m not mistaken, or at least our school doesn’t do them
@NoumanSami my ussully do 4 subjects and one as an As and the other 3 at A level (you drop the As in the first year) but technically you cluld do As and A level but in theory an A level is like having an As at the same time so it would be pointless to do the 3 you want to do as A full A level as an As
@@user-kp7zp1ob2m ohh ok
Bro three exams in one week???? I had my first 3 exams in one day and the rest in the same week😭😭😭 my skl hates us😂😂
Nouman you’re so right about feeling so drained after one single exam🫠😭
Hi I just finished year 11 and my GCSEs and am waiting for results, hope they can be as great as yours! I’m planning on taking the same a levels as you (plus further maths) but plan to do psychological and behavioral sciences at uni - do you think these A levels would be appreciated by top universities for PBS?
i’m in the same position as you (going to do physics instead of biology tho) and honestly i just want these results now. with regards to your options i don’t see why it wouldn’t be an issue personally. were you considering taking psychology by any chance?
@@AyoOgunyoye yeah I was considering taking psychology A level, but I really didn’t want to drop any of my other choices as they still allow quite a broad range of scientific degrees like this (medicine, natural sciences, biochemistry etc.) and I’m not 100% sure on PBS. I think psychology is not required, and if you take biology and/or maths it is usually enough. If you’re not taking bio you might have to do some sort of catch up thing at some point to learn the essentials, I’m not too sure you could ask a teacher. I think your options look good though if you’re also considering engineering or chemical engineering. Last thing - if you’re doing an EPQ, do it on the subject you think you will study at uni and it gives you more experience and demonstrates your interest.
Sorry for long essay haha nobody else in my school is doing a similar thing
@@JohnnyWright99 haha nws, originally i wanted to study biochem or toxicology but bio is easily my worst science, it takes me ages to understand and get 9 level knowledge on each topic, so i’m leaning more towards chemical engineering now. my mate in the year above is taking the same subjects as you and he’s gonna do natural sciences and yh he said that the options are really broad even if he doesn’t so yh those are solid a levels imo. my school hasn’t mentioned EPQ’s tho so i’m pretty unfamiliar with them
@@AyoOgunyoye Yeah tbf I feel the same with bio it’s my worst science, but I just really want to do psychology so I sort of have to. It will take a lot of work but hopefully I can still get the A* and then it won’t matter how good I am at it after that - I had my A level transition day today and bio sounds like mostly recall. Looking forward to chem though, it sounds really interesting and with further maths I could follow you down the chemical engineering route 🤷♂️. We’ll see I guess. Good luck again :)
@@JohnnyWright99 sound, good luck mate 👊
im on A*A*B in maths econ chem. Gonna retake the B to get it to A* in September
Oh fair enough, wishing you the best!!
How the UCAT prep timeline looking for you, when do you think you will start
I’ve started already, I’m gonna try and master each section before I move on to the next
@@NoumanSami same, I have started 10 days ago, how many hours you roughly doing a day, my test is in 49 days and my scores are looking decent. I have just been doing questions from all sections and at the end of this week should be confident enough to start full mocks. We are going to have a looooong summer lol.
@@NoumanSami I am sweating for that 3000 score inshallah that will open all doors
@@idontknowwhattonamethis75h82 inshallah, I'm currently doing like 2hrs each day but i'll see if i need to increase it later on
Make a video on how you revised for maths and well done
Yep I’ll do a video on each subject
My school doesn't even do as exams bc they can't even finish as in time
Oh wait what, so how do they get predicted grades?
@@NoumanSami we had mock exams in May and previously in December.
Aren’t the results day on 17th august
Nah these are his mocks
@@zertsi6103 bruh whyd he upload his mocks bruh pointless + unnecessary
@@iamraed its not pointless because he literally said that you use these grades for the university that you want to apply to. Without this they wont even give you an offer.
@@somerandomorganismonearth272 I think he’s being a bit extra ,he’s literally in year 12 and hasn’t yet comepleteed year 13. The main thing universities look for is YOUR MAIN EXAM results and also the fact that he wants to go to med school , the main thing they’ll look for is your UCAT or BMAT results. This guy is just gaslighting his followers. I’m a med school myself and all of what he said is just extra and it’s making me cringe (no hate on this dude)
@@iamraedyes that's true but they are are interested in predicted grades because they don't know your Results when you apply
12:20 lmao
Alhamdululah your scores are great. It makes me sound like a falier 😂 beacuse im really dumb
ahh dont say that
Dont put urself down brother.
