That made me laugh. You need to look at the differences between opinion and fact before spouting off.

Uni's will take into account all four if your aiming for the best uni's. Everyone knows that universities are struggling to pick out the best as it is without ignoring peoples results.

They only ignore the 4th if it is something like critical thinking/general studies etc, but even they can be taken into account if your three A levels just happen to miss the University's offer, so try hard in everything.

Also Nickelson, did school teach you to write sentences with every single word beginning with a capital letter? I don't really know how you can be bothered to do that!

Any particular reason? I presume you do it with the shift key? I tried it just to see what it was like and it just ached my hands and seemed to make everything take longer than it should!
