so @gofundme just refunded my entire top surgery fund... after i made it to £1,000... because they failed to process my bank confirmation.
£1000 of my top surgery. gone.
unsure if the right people will see this but if you just got given an Oxford interview for Psychology, and aren’t sure what to expect/how to prepare, DM me! I’m a first year EP student and am happy to give advice, especially if your school isn’t doing much interview prep stuff.

A few things to unpack that white Allies need to know but clearly aren’t told enough. A THREAD :

Hey guys we’re really excited to give you a teaser of what we’ve been working on for the past few months. This documentary about racism in the shadow of Covid-19 couldn’t have come into fruition without your help! #BlackLivesMatter
Heard from my college that they’ll be accepting everyone who meets the offer with CAGs either this year or next year, so I am #GoingtoOxford ... just not sure when yet!

my friend has put all her psychology notes, essay plans, and practice questions in a folder for anyone retaking AQA A Level psychology or anyone in y12 who missed out on a lot of face-to-face teaching +
This is great, but there are still many of us who are being left out. I don't know if my personal circumstances have been carefully looked at - I was told I was rejected because my standardised grades were too low to show clemency, before the University knew my CAG met the offer.
Oxford University has looked carefully at the individual circumstances of all applicants who didn’t meet their grades this year. We have now offered places to over 300 of them, far more than in previous years: bit.ly/2020-admissions (1/3)

A levels...short thread
If anyone doubts who the winners are this year, here's a random selection of independent schools and the % of A*-A grades this year.
2019 figures follow in brackets.
Mayfield Girls' 66% (55%)
Sherfield School 70% (37%)
Leweston School 51% (37%)

This fight isn't just about A levels. It's much bigger. The government's failure impacts so many people. My teacher friend says her #BTEC students still don't have their results yet. Their university & college places are also at risk. #getthisgovernmentout

Excellent decision from Wadham, hope to see this done by more colleges
Wadham College will admit all 2020 offer-holders. Those applicants whose courses are now full will be guaranteed deferred entry for 2021. Read the full updated statement from the Warden, Ken Macdonald QC here: wadham.ox.ac.uk/news/2020/au… #alevels2020 #ALevelsResults

21,304 U grades were given to students. A student only gets a U if they write nothing, don't turn up or write complete drivel. How can you give a U to a student who worked hard for 2 years and never even got a chance to take the exam?! #AlevelResults #examshambles

Roger Taylor, Chair of @ofqual, responsible for the #algorithm, FLUNKED his own A Levels but was given a "second chance" after passing the @UniofOxford entrance exam. You couldn't make this stuff up. End the hypocrisy and #HonourTheOffer tes.com/news/meet-exams-regu…

Come on, @UniofOxford: take a stand against the attack on young people's futures. All offers this year must be made unconditional >> docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…
