Thats very unlucky with the grades catsmum. Generally topping the class would mean a ‘A’. Did your son mention these intricacies in your current school’s in his interviews? Because I got straight A’s except in Art, Geography and in Latin (we take 10 subjects in my old school so its not as bad as it sounds) and I mentioned my reasons for not getting A’s in them despite not being asked about them specifically.

Unlucky with the Teachers Recommendations I had some very good ones except for my Headmaster/English teacher (same person) who I lucked out on.

How was your son’s ECs catsmum? Because often I realized that if you have weak ECs you need a strong essay to prove you’re more then a academic orientated person.

Well regardless NHM is apparently a awesome school (I didn’t apply so can’t say) and I’m sure your son will do amazing there and hopefully get into a good college. Don’t worry, its PA/Exeter/SPS that missed out!

And I’m a guy, lol.
