Are you AS or A2? AS

•

What subjects are you taking? Chinese, English Language, Maths and Philosophy and Ethics :smile:

•

How are exams going?/How did they go? Maths went really well, as did Philosophy and Ethics. With English, the first exam was great but the second was a bit of a plot twist compared to the spec (it's a new course), although I think I've done enough to get the grade I want. Chinese... To be honest I have no idea how it went, it's totally up in the air! Speaking seemed all right but I'm not sure how they'll mark me compared to native speakers, and the listening/reading/writing paper was ok but there were quite a few answers I wasn't sure about. I'll have to wait and see!

•

To which university are you hoping to go? Cambridge is the dream :ahee:

•

To study which subject? Japanese (under Asian and Middle Eastern Studies)

•

What grades are required? A*AA :eek:

•

What grades are you predicted? This year I'm predicted AAAA, I don't have predictions for next year yet.

•

How are you feeling about results day? Undecided, I'm confident about maths and philosophy and ethics but Chinese and English are a little concerning :s-smilie:

•

Anything else to add? Nope :smile:

Oh, I finished my AS levels 6 years ago :colondollar:

. I'm just here as to provide support to you guys, discussion catalysis and Results help in the lead up to, and on, Results Day :ninja:

To be honest, you guys will see me a fair bit within the next month or so, then you start forming your own little community and I'll slink into the shadows, and then on Results Day, Nirgilis owns the A-level forum :ahee:

You don't pay attention to your desk when you get to the office then, huh? :tongue:

... Or is that because I've ~~stolen~~ permanently borrowed all of your stuff by then? :curious:

Could have gone better but could have gone much worse if that makes sense? I don't think I managed to get the mark I need (75/100) for Cardiff but... At least I wasn't completely clueless 😊
