Education GCSE RESULTS

Do I need to go and collect mine then? or do they get sent? havent heard anything from school :S

 

It was 10AM - 12 to be collected, or they get posted to you.
But many people will need them sooner to bring down for enrollment for college.

 

rofl, I was 3 then, and I got my results for gcse about 6 years ago now

 

2005/2006 uni grad?

 

Congratulations those with decent results.
Those disappointed, don't worry. No one really cares about them when you're older.

And for those who haven't got them yet, good luck!

This is making me feel old too, it was almost a decade ago when I got mine

 

On the flips side when you have got a degree you can lie about what A-Levels you got because they don't check

 

Your screwed if you do plus I aint doing A levels so muhahaha, stupid BTEC in construction. ps anyone thinking of doing, E-Media or anything of the sort don't waste a year, some friendly advice I did but you only need Maths English and your landed over here.

 

Not always true... I would say that in some jobs it's very important. I wasn't even asked about any grades.

I got a C in Geography and D's for Business, ICT and Design Technology

Basically, I couldn't be bothered any more after GCSE's and I gave up.

I've got a cool job now and all the people I know apart from 1 are still on the bottom rung of the ladder. Regardless of their A levels.

 

Anyone got any advice for me? I didnt get into the sixth form at my school. I dont have a clue what i'm gonna do now.

 

Got a second choice? Go around looking at colleges, or have a talk with the career guy at your school, he gets paid for a reason.
Apprenticeships?

We'd be able to tell you more if we knew what you wanted to do. Something like engineering or science and you're stuffed if you don't do a-levels/sixth form, others, not so much.

 

Ok thanks, well i dont think i'll be able to speak to the career's guy because im not allowed back to school.

And i dont want to do anything in science or engineering so thats ok i suppose. Im quite interested in the technical side of theatre, used to do quite alot of it for my school.

 

just got back from the beach/drinking and im pretty happy with my results.
A*: Spanish
A: Maths; Physics; ICT; English; English Literature
B: Biology; Chemistry; Business
C: RE

They're pretty much what i expected except for ICT which i thought would be A* and business at least an A.

 

Hey, just got to work which was my first place with net after getting my results which where

3 A*'s (1 of which was in maths )
6 A's
2 B's

Am really happy, got all the grades required for my courses at A level and am now very happy

 

Which courses you guys thinking of doing?

 

That makes me feel better... I was ten years after you.

 

2 A*s, 9 As and 3 Bs make me a smug little git

 

Maths
Further Maths
Physics
Computing

And on the 31st I shall be confirming that I've been accepted even though I am almost certain I have been

 

only got one result and it was an A* in statistics

 

Hmm.

2 Exams, and 2 A's. Fair enough.

 

Same year as me
Did pretty bad at GCSE due to playing too much sport and not studying. Skip a few years *cough* and I'm now a Senior Electronics Engineer working for a major Defence contractor in the UK. I think standards must be dropping cos I'm not exactly the brightest spark.
