People like you have to put minimum effort for the third time. Go for it with a stream of your mother's prayers.

I don't have any strategies at the moment to be honest. I'm still in the process of consulting my teachers to see what should be my next course of action.

umark distinction worldwide ya regional ya city based? And percentage kya thi? 98%? When did you do your O Level? I did it back in 2008 and had 95%.

Well, O/A Level background ke bache itne nahi hote... CSS is still dominated by FSc/FA guys and that too from rural background. My brother qualified in 2013. More than 70% of his batchmates were rural guys! O/A Level and Matric/FSc don't matter. I guess my screaming didn't do a thing! It's not about it!!!

Na hee worldwide, na hee regional aur na hee city wise. I had the highest in my class in O Levels (97%) and I got 95% in my A levels.

As far as I can remember, any subject grade with 95% and above percentage i-e A* was deemed a distinction. Humein tau certificates bhi miltey the.

How's your interview prep going? Joining any academies?

Thank you so much!!!

Distinction does not mean notching up 95%. If you top a particular city, region or world, you get a distinction.

Allah ka shukar hai, it's going good. Will be giving mock interviews.

I think maybe what you are alluding to is the Outstanding Cambridge Learner Award? I just topped my batch.

Best of luck!!
