Before anyone suggests I resit double science, have a word with yourself first.

I assume they've put it in to filter out applications. Which is sensible, given the expected volumes, however I suspect a lot of good candidates will miss out on this opportunity because of that.

Good luck to everyone else in this process. It's an excellent opportunity that will change some life's for the better. Sadly not mine.
Remove the chip from your shoulder and resit double science. You’ll breeze it and can apply next time round. If you wanted it badly enough you’d do it. If you’re not willing to then your lack of motivation means you’d be unlikely to succeed anyway.
