And I thought I felt bad earlier, less than 10 hours until I get my results and I think my heart is about to rip itself out of my body. I doubt I'll be able to sleep tonight

I honestly don't know what I'm worrying about though, after every single exam I came out thinking "that was bloody easy, top marks no problems!" but now...

*Nearly throws up*

If anyone's trying to get on the UCAS website for results, don't bother - Track hasn't been opened yet

We are updating Track at the moment in preparation to go live on Thursday morning (14 August 2008). Please check back later. Thanks for your patience.

UCAS says it is updating.....

Maccy · 14 Aug 2008 at 00:16

Going awfully slow though!

The UCAS thing, it'll have AS results right? For 2009 entry? And how did you sign up for it, was it specially done through the school/college or is it just the regular UCAS account you use to apply with?

UCAS just does A2 i believe for University stuff. You will have to wait another year for the ucas thing

on that note Anyone else staying up to see if there results are put on ucas?

I don't think it gives you the results... just which university has accepted you.

Yes is the answer to the question.

I didn't mean to come across as too pedantic mind.

6-9AM? Bah, might as well head to bed then.

syke · 14 Aug 2008 at 00:39

Guess i better go to bed & get up bright an early to collect them

.

Good luck guys!

If you are lucky you can get a welcome pack in the post before you get your results

Just got mine from my college website, nothing spectacular but I'm just 10 UCAS points short of what was required for uni so I shouldn't have too much trouble getting in.

Ended up with BBDD - 7 marks short of an A in business which is annoying.

Slinky1989 · 14 Aug 2008 at 00:48

Tried to get onto the edexcel student results thing and it keeps saying my details are wrong but doesn't flag anything as being wrong :-/

That Business studies - if so, what exam board.

I did Business and found it a piece of ****. Got 262/300 for AS without any revision, and already got 80/90 in the coursework module for A2. Didn't do any revision again this year, the exams were harder, but I am nearly 100% confident that I will get an A overall.

It was AQA, I ended up getting 473/600.

What messed up my results was my final exam (BUS6) which I got 65/120 (D), in all my other exams I got As/Bs

. I should have turned up to more business lessons this year.

2008Jun Marketing, Accounting, Finance 83 / 90 BUS1
2007Jun People & Operations Management 67 / 90 BUS2
2008Jun External influences,Objectives & Strategy 99 / 120 BUS3

2008Jun Business Report & Essay 69 / 90 BU5W
2008Jun External influences,Objectives & Strategy 65 / 120 BUS6

Unlike you I did the business report instead of the coursework, somehow I managed to do pretty well which is weird as our class only spent 2 or 3 lessons studying for it.
