Yeah I know it's not the end of the world and I have a shot but it's so disheartening when every module, both exam and coursework, were Cs and some were barely Cs. :( I'll look at some lower grade unis to apply for and hope for the best

It's so annoying my Spanish ability is assessed on one random speaking exam and a 2 and a half hour paper, when I could hold a basic conversation when locals when I visited Spain :/

Kizzy 14-08-2014 12:18 PM

Why not try resits befor A2? It's worth a shot...
What grades do you need for the uni you want?

..I do think language exams really aren't very good at all tbh and it's proven when you speak Spanish so well...I understand how disheartened you feel and I think everyone would feel the same but these results can be changed quite dramatically next year and at least it helps you know what your aims are for the year..and Doogle, whatever your final grades and whichever uni you choose with them, it will be the right uni for you and you won't feel disappointed or sad at all about it....because you'll just be enjoying it all so much...

well done everyone :love:

i'm so excited it's taken 2 years and i'm finally onto 2nd year :amazed:

Yeah I will do them, it's just so annoying that they removed January exams so I have to revise so much more all for June next year :(

ABB in any subjects

:hug: I know I can do a lot to fix it next year and I'm confident I can give it my all and get into a uni I love, it's just so hard to take in when you first see the results

..yeah of course it is, you need to feel that as well but try not to let it dishearten you because it's nothing that can't be fixed Doogle and you will...

Very angry and upset but w/e it's done and I'm going through to A2

My U was in economics

Don't worry too much about first year. I went from CCCD to AABB...or be it I had zero life in second year, but I can't complain after I has too much fun first year for my own good.

Id recommend remarking to anyone

My friend got a U in her sociology exam and had it remarked and it became a C...

I would, but our exam board are charging £45 for a remark.

Samuel. 14-08-2014 08:39 PM

Charging for remarks is insane. Perhaps if the mark remained the same I could understand.

Tbf I doubt it's a regular occurrence that they do mess up

Brother Leon 14-08-2014 08:58 PM

Charging for Remarks? Wow


My Humanities teacher sent my exam back himself when It got a D and it came back as a C. I was super excited when that happened as that was the only thing I failed :laugh:

Ammi 15-08-2014 03:18 AM
