2011 A level results day thread

[Purdy]

Starting to **** it, really do not want to go to my insurance choice, I think I'll phone up and beg first if I don't get in where I want and then ask for a slightly lesser course of possible.
Opening them in front of people is always tedious.

Just checked some grade boundaries and they are ****ing ridiculous. Since when was Biology supposed to be a hard subject?!

I know i have already done terrible haha looks like no uni for me D:

 

[RomanNose]

The grade boundaries for my physics one is quite high, usually it's about 65% for an A but it's 70%. I have worked out from coursework and the January exam that I have about 8-10 Ums to drop from the A grade boundary so that I can get an A overall. I am really bricking it but the maths grade boundaries are fairly lenient.

Meh, I just chose an average uni with easy grades so A level results day wasn't that stressful for me.

Nevertheless, gewd luck

(also, who the **** is flibbage? don't recognise the name...)

Best of luck to all those waiting on results. Just remember that it's not the end of the world if you are disappointed

GCSEs and A levels are a joke. You can do well in them with hardly any effort or revision as long as you have an average IQ or above.

And do all the easier subjects too...

Best of luck to everyone!

They're probably easier than last year's anyway

I'm a little nervous, I want my 2 A*'s to prove a point!

I remember laying in bed on the morning on the A Level results, building up the energy to get out of bed and shower and head down to the school, when my dad comes in with the post. Hands me a letter from the uni I applied for saying "congratulations on your results, we look forward to seeing you in September" from that point on I no longer cared what the results were as I knew I was in.

I actually done worse than expected so that letter saved a lot of stress and anxiety that day

 

[semi-pro waster]

Good luck all who are getting their results tomorrow, I hope you've got what you wanted.

 

[Moothead2]

I did maths, physics, design technology and bunisess studies. Hardly the easiest of subjects.

Oh and chemistry not a full A-level though.

Business Studies is ****.

I remember last year... I got a Maths S1 (I think) mark of about 70% and was shocked at how low it was... when I got my paper back I got 80+% That was a bad year for UMS

They are extremely important. It's just not the end of the world if you don't get the right grades. But they are extremely important.

why?

Good luck!

I hope you're not in the 230,000+ students who attempt to get into Uni this year, but fail miserably. Because next year it's gonna be reet expensive.....
