jst advice or experience needed

[u/sweet_lil_bish]

So I'm currently an AS student whose doing Math, Econ, CS, and Phy. I did Cambridge Olevel and got pretty decent grades and doing Cambridge alevels. I'll be done with tht by 2028 and I was planning to move abroad I mean my goals are Europe, USA or Canada. I'll be doing SAT, IELTS, ACT test in the future as my older sister is also doing those. I hope i get very decent scores in them cuz they support uni scholarships alot and i am also an ex-president of a debate club but stopped debate n public speaking due to my olevel and I hv not started them again.

But I think it's crucial to have a extra curriculum so I hope to continue that. And also my family background is that we are pretty higher middle class type of but they can't afford a whole study abroad thing. My parents cud afford other expenses but the whole uni fees is very tuf for them. I hope I'll get around 4A*s for my ALevels which cud be a strong foundation for me for my uni application with atleast a 75% scholarship but I wud appreciate a 100% so I cud work less to afford the fees. I don't look for high end unis either as I'll be okay as long as it's in the specified countries and is providing a schol for me.

But apparently when I come to reddit I see ppl saying negative stuff as in a 100% schol doesn't even exist and that really disappoints me so I actually am seeking for personal experience or smth real you know. Jst not saying shit you don't know. I hv alot of my seniors from schl who actually got a full ride to UK, Australia and some other European countries but I don't go to schl anymore so I lost contact with them and also my teachers hv spoken alot about their students moving with a full ride with their ALevel results. So idk who to believe and am confused rn.

So if you all hv anything you would like to share, pls do as it wud help me a lot in this process and I really wanna know if these actually exist, and also SHUD I continue my debate and public speaking or is it not needed?

That's it's so I hope i get some great stuff to hear and thank you for reading

Ps. I got alot of people saying such as my teachers, that alot of unis actually don't mind olevel and consider them alot. But I see ppl saying here for some to retake their olevels even after 4A*s for ALevels, 1590 SAT score so wht is actually true??do olevels rlly matter as much as alevels??? Jst wanted to know cuz ppl said that to me when I was crashing and crying over for how hard olevels were.
