Is anybody else surprised by how worried they are? I'm usually pretty chilled about exams and results day, but I'm really stressing out about these.
I think it's because for the first time there is genuine pressure, and scary consequences of doing badly (going to insurance rather than firm. Or worse going to neither! :P)
Yeah im surprised on how calm I am although that wont last for long lol.
I agree with you - there is definte pressure and a lot hinges on these results. It was the same for me in AS as I needed high UMS for Cambridge (which i got so i got the interview). Also there are family and friends that add to the pressure. If I dont do well (which is a possibiliy) then I will have lots of family members and friedns being shocked and it will be embarassing. And plus i dont want to tell my results to people who will take the piss if I fail, However whether good or bad the results just remember you can still achive your dreams in life
Good luck!!!
I didn't really feel much pressure for AS results as I had no particular unis in mind; maybe that's why this year's results day has hit me so hard :P
My dad went to the same Uni as I've firmed, so I'm defo feeling the family pressure too :/
That SCLY4 exam was just horrible! I feel like I'm not going to get into my firm because of that exam and plus the Psychology exams were horrible too. I need AAB for Warwick, but I think I'll end up with A*BB/C - A* in History, B in Sociology and B in Psychology. The SCLY3 exam was a dream and I feel like I can get near full marks, but SCLY4, I just did horrific in it! I'm so scared for results! Thanks AQA for messing us up
I'm not that confident for SCLY3 I really need an A in Sockology because Politics was just awful...and English I am certain I got a B I want to go to SOAS!
Manchester, I wanted to put Imperial but my parents threatened to disown me lol
You too, it's just that this year it's the final thing, no turning back etc!
Ahh because it's a London uni and it's expensive? Respect for getting an offer though!
You revised a lot I'm sure you did amazing. At least you get to see if you go the grades for Cambridge. I have to go in and get my results and then see if I can apply for Bristol/Nottingham or not

Yeah, and it's 'not worth moving away from home for' apparently.
Thanks, I really hope all that revision shows itself in my results
Ahh are you applying with a gap year? I really hope you do well! What course do you want to study?
