Kasra wanted to be a doctor.
At his old school, he was not predicted the grades to get an offer for
university. He came to Abbey in September 2004 and enrolled on a
one- term course for A-Level Biology. He turned his B into a grade
A and got an unconditional offer for Medicine at Imperial and starts in
October 2006.
Jogisha came to Abbey with A-Level grades of BBB and a
burning desire to study Medicine. She embarked upon two intensive
A-level retakes from September to January and a one year A-Level and
gained AAA.
Rajiv’s first time grades at his grammar school were
BBC and he missed his offers for Medicine. He came to Abbey
College in September 2005 and retook his A-Levels. With Abbey, he
turned his grades into AAA. Jogisha and Rajiv both have just finished
their first year studies in Medicine at Queen Mary’s London.
“I can’t thank Abbey enough, Michael was wonderful,
Linda was brilliant, as friends and as professionals Abbey’s teachers
were brilliant. I was nervous after last year opening my results,
but the better teaching and Abbey treated us as individuals and not as
numbers!”
Simone knew that her AS grades did
not show her true potential or provide her with the chance to
successfully apply for Veterinary Medicine. She came to Abbey and
took the advice to repeat her AS year. She completed her A-levels
with AAA and is about to commence her degree in Veterinary Medicine.

“I came to Abbey College with BBC in Biology, Chemistry and Maths.
I retook and I got three As. I’m now going to be doing Dentistry at
Queen Mary’s. The teachers at Abbey are brilliant, I couldn’t have
asked for more!”
Manisha Desai
“I retook my A-Levels in Biology and Chemistry and from two BBs, I now
have AA. I picked up a new A level subject in one year and gained a B in
Economics. The teachers at Abbey College are really supportive, they’re
really friendly. I respect them but they are on your level and you can
always ask for help. I can’t wait to start Medicine at
Birmingham.”
