Hi. So, I was raised in a rough area so, my education was hugely compromised by mainly me. And, I didn’t attend a lot of high school because, I was constantly bullied, ridiculed for being posh ( I was raised in London for a lot of my life but, live in Birmingham. And, was the only black girl in my class everyone else was south Asian) so I was called the n word everyday my hair etc. It was horrible. Even being physically attacked many times lol by boys So I stopped going I didn’t feel like it was important (stupid me at 13 and I had a lot of breakdowns which I’ve since got help for I guess but, I’m struggling a lot.) What was the point? I had no friends, even the teachers laughed at some point and I was already amazing at music, English lit, language and art (all my 11/13 year old brain cared about at the time.) and, by the time I did take education seriously at like 14 after my grandpa died, I was manage moved and forced to go to a PRU filled with fights everyday. And, teachers who didn’t give a fuck so I ultimately failed lol. Luck wasn’t on my side in the educational field during my teenage years. I tried to retake at other establishments but, there were the wrong teachers and students who didn’t teach etc fights same thing. I just want to make something of myself and, I’m tired of every single establishment not working out for me and I want the experience of being at a prestigious. So much so I’ll willingly like do multiple dofes this year and completely work my ass off just to do so. Ofc ik Oxbridge or at Andrews would be impossible but, a Russel Group’s. And what sucks ik it doesn’t compare but I was accepted to BOA (the Birmingham Brit school) but didn’t go because of how bad my mental health was. So yeah I wanna increase my chances as much as I can. How can I do this? And how many a levels should I achieve etc? Also pls be kind lol. And I’m aware of the grammatical errors 🩶 I wrote this in a rush
