Can I do UMEP Physics after terrible Report

(1/2) > >>

Hotdogs753:
I was wondering whether or not I should apply for UMEP Physics next year. I really like physics and am currently hoping to pursue a career in engineering and think that participating in this program would be beneficial to me in deciding if that is the path I want to take. The thing is I did really know about UMEP Physics and the requirements till just recently and I got really bad marks in semester 1 for methods 1/2 getting a D+ on my report.  :o At the time I was going to drop methods at the end of the year and do further maths so I didn't care how I did in maths. I have since lifted my grade and should definitely get an A or A+ in semester 2 and I will be doing spesh next year also. As for Physics 1/2 I find it a breeze getting an A for semester 1.

I think that due my semester 1 report I would not be able to get in for UMEP Physics and I would really like to do it just for the experience and don't really care about the added increment.

So should I even bother putting in an application without having done either Physic or Methods 3/4 this year and a terrible semester 1 report??? Are my chances???

Furbob:
well for starters, I'm pretty sure you only need to submit your semester 2 report for UMEP

appianway:
You only need semester 2, however, you'll need to sit an additional test to get in as you haven't done both physics and methods 3/4 or any olympiads.

jimmy999:
Either way, you won't know until you actually apply. Therefore if you want to do UMEP physics next year, then definitely apply. If you apply, there's a chance you get in. If you don't apply, you will not get in so you never know without trying

Hotdogs753:
On the website it says "You are required to provide a copy of your semester one and two Year 11, school reports, accompanied by a key that defines the grading system used by your school." so is that a new thing that you have to submit your semester 1 report now?
