I'm not joking but a fella 2 years ago in my school got 13 A*
I'm the same as you - I worked my arse off and got all of my work in on time and got rubbish grades. However, being put into a class where the 'teacher' can't actually teach properly or can't control the class doesn't help...
Personally I found most past papers easier than the ones I did. I remember one year, the maths paper was stupidly easy; I got something like 39/50 which is a B. (And the highest grade possible)
ETA - this is crazy. We only did 9 GCSE's at our school, in fact that was the norm for all my mates at different schools in my area too. But most of you have done 10+...
I spent all my time getting pissed and being a big mong... but my brain isn't a sponge-like as briggi's and my predicted A's didn't appear as expected!
That will pay off when you do a-levels.
yeah i did 11. fucking pointless. Systems and control...P.E.? fuck off!
3 x B's in Food Tech, english Lit and english Lang
2 x C's in R.S and Spanish
1 x D in Drama (hahaha)
I found that no-one really bothers about my GSCE/AS/A level results any more although I did need them to get on my first NVQ course. I have 'dropped' my D grades off my C.V as well. Futher employers are only really interested my proffessional qualifications. Most people only did 9 GCSEs at my school. I've gone mad this year at college, Ionly had to do three exams but I choose to do Business tax as well as costing, budgeting and personal tax. God knows if I'll pass costing though. Variances are fucking evil.
B english
C in all science
D in maths
C in geography
C in everything else.
Not bad considering i did 0% revision :hyper:
rest b's except a C and a D
I got a 1, four 2's, two 3's and a 4
I was really pissed off about only getting one one I was so close to getting two but my coursework slipped because i didn't put in enough effort and I got a 4 in Craft and Design because my teacher broke my project a week before it was to be handed in. :mad:
Oh yeah, and as someone said earlier. Just because they might not mean much later, right now they are important and here in Scotland you can't do Higher Level subjects unless you get good Standard Grade results.
WOW 13 G.C.S.E's in total that has to be some sort of record.
I'm a clandestine nerd when I want to be.
Not bad since they predicted me D's and E's (talk about putting faith in my ability eh?)
I doubt it! I'm studying Law and its solid!!!
A - English Language
A - R.E.
B - Textiles
B - English Literature
D - French
D - Business Studies
D - Maths
DD - Science
I got 1 B 6 Cs 1 D and 2 Es.
Not bad though considering I have just finished a Law degree...goes to show they're not as important as the teachers ram down your neck after all!
1 A
6 B's
2 C's
1 D
