That's the new rules as Tony Blair said everyone can go to University. To do this the lanour govt just renamed every poly or college a universiry. There are 12 remaining where "University is still a University" - Cambriddge being one - at polys/colleges you can study media studies and pass on 40%............Corin could pass

If that's true you're going to need to learn the difference between your and you're, and between there and their and they're.

Snobbing people is wankish? The poster said they're off to uni in the autumn in a post that was barely literate. I don't pick people up on their English skills... but in this case it was relevant. I wasn't even talking to you.

Typically when you pick on people's grammar it's a sign you have nothing to come back with

As for the topic at hand, Well done to Andrew.

My stepson got a first in Ancient History along with five others on his course. He's not a genius, nor does he claim to be, so why was Andrew called a Maths Genius?

Well done Andrew!! Yeah I got a bit sketchy about the genius thing.. think I was expecting him to get higher but suppose Maths is a ghastly hard subject anyway!! Maybe he knew he was going into BB when he was doing his exams.. got so excited and lost some concentration?

2:1 is a good grade. Why are people on here being so stuck up? It's second highest, a first being the only higher possibility. 2:1 is damn good, and degrees are not easy! I got a 2:1 myself, and very proud!

That's 31% he either got wrong or didn't know...

A huge fail from me.
