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 :/

..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...

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

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

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.

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

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

How's everyone doing this year?? I've gotten all my uni offers and have accepted to do Environmental Science at Northumbria.. just a couple of weeks left at college.

Good luck to anyone doing their A-level exams in a couple of weeks
