good luck! Honestly don't worry about the grades. As long as you pass Maths and English you can get into college/get jobs (although you'll need science GCSEs for some jobs/you'll need to pass any subjects you want to study to college if you want to go)

Your GCSEs don't need to be higher than passes (or your college's grade requirements) for uni either, that'll all depend on A Levels (although Medicine degrees and Oxbridge students (and possibly other really prestigious unis) require you get good GCSEs)

What's next for you once you've got your GCSEs? I'd ask what you chose for GCSEs but I guess I'll find out later

Congrats. Stepson is getting his now and am a bit nervous as I told him I would give him money for results, but went a bit OTT...said 50 for a*, 40 for a, 30 b, 20 c. Forgot they had changed the grading too...so am hoping he does well, but him doing too well will bankrupt me

I really feel for you. I did the numbered English and Maths GCSEs (the rest of mine were graded with letters) and so I didn't have any coursework for English. I ended up doing well in English because we were given really nice questions about main characters but all the revision for copious amounts of poems and all these different themes and characters was overwhelming. With my other subjects I could use coursework as a safety net whereas you couldn't

The exam system got worse for you but I like to imagine the lack of coursework and harder exams will be good prep for college? Assuming you do A Levels

Apparently

I still have no idea why they changed it all

Especially so that like..2 numbers are the same grade. 5/6 is B. 7/8 A, but also 8/9 A* :/

When I had it explained to me, they said they wanted to add more numbers as time went on

No idea why they changed it, but apparently the 8/9 divide is to split the highest achievers from the higher achievers?

Good luck to him, but if he tries to ask for money, say, "you got a 7, not an A, and I didn't say you'd get any money for a 7 "

He might be mad at you for a month but your bank account will thank you!

Erm, would it not be better to give each their own number then? Like 9 is a* but a* with a better score is 10. Rather than this

Haha, thats pure evil. I might actually say this when he comes to collect..just to see what he does. Will still give him it like, but..this is a very good idea

Am sure he said he was taking 13. So thats, if he aced it all..like 650 to give him Really should have thought it through a little more rather than be spontaneous

I'm guessing they will do that/similar when/if they add more numbers to the grading system? So the "B/C" gets changed do one number represents a B and a C/a high B and low B(?) I've been through it and I don't get it

Hasn't he got them yet, or does he mean when he comes to get his money?

13? That's heavy, 10 was hard enough for me and I had easier GCSEs I wish him the best and I'm sure you do but I wouldn't blame you if a part of you wished he didn't achieve too high for your purse's sake
