It's much more exciting going and picking them up to find out. But it is so nerve-wracking.
Again good luck guys. Let us all know how you did. :thumbs:

Not working until 7am/8am apparently. A lot of people are staying up all night refreshing it... because they can't sleep. Im so glad I got my results ages ago, I could not handle the stress they are under.
Plus I am glad I got an Unconditional place at uni... Imagine getting 1% below the needed grades and not being able to go uni =/

Good point haha. I bet the most frustrating thing is... all the uni's found out the grades on Monday. Before the people the grades are actually for, so their future is being determined before they even know it haha.

Do a further 2 As subjects, a lot of Uni's accept 2 in place of 1 full A Level (and you'd have 4) with some working on points systems anyway. Or try and see if you can do any course, both As and A2 alongside each other. A few people I know were allowed to do that in their second year. Would be a lot of work but worth it if you want to stay

I don't wanna take up other AS's. I just need to talk to my Graphics teacher cos he predicted me a C and thought I'd be fine.

My AS Results
Psychology: C
Film: C
English Lit: E
History: B
I'm quite happy with them.
I was expecting maybe a B for psychology and a D/E in film but apart from that they are as I expected
The E in English Lit is a let down but its not my fault, just our class was messed around all year but the issue is being addressed by the college.
Well done to everyone else who got their results today and there were some good results on this thread

I may have to leave school. Music Tech ends at AS and I needed a D at least to continue Graphics and they don't let you carry on with only 2 subjects. =\
Just to update, they've let me carry on at school. :bigsmile: Thank God.

Yep :/ Only got 3 exams in the summer though, should just have had 2 but I'm retaking my English one from January because I didnt do as well as I wanted. Good thing is I know I've done well on my History coursework so just need a solid score on the exam and I should get an A :)

No I mean when I first went to sixth form I did really badly because I didn't concentrate at all and left with just one grade (an A but still, not really much)... then there were some personal issues (coming out, lost 2 close relatives) so I was pretty much not in the right frame of mind to go to university when everyone else did... but yeah... enough of making this thread about me LOL

They're good grades, I honestly don't think you've anything to worry about as long as you try hard next year.
Just for reference, I got CDDE at AS Level. Came out with ACCC in the end.
With a bit of graft, cramming and effort, you'll be able to get from BBCC to ABB

Wise words from the Boothster! Plus having 3 lessons to concentrate on instead of 4.
Plus it's always wise to apply for Uni you know you can get the grades for! Just in case.
