I'm not as I don't want the pressure 😬😂
I think I'm going to open the envelope and cover the sheet of paper with my grades up (with another sheet of paper) and slowly pull the cover away to reveal each grade. I'm doing this so I don't get overwhelmed with all the different letters on the sheet.

But then again, the anticipation on the day may be so high that I'll iust rip open the envelope to see all my grades!

Dad's at work and Mum has an illness, but I know she's going to force my brother or sister to come so I'm probably gonna sneak out and get them, they'll be like "It's fine, it's fine" but I'd need some alone time!

I'm excited

:excited::excited::excited:
Hey guys. Got my CIE IGCSE results today and I think that before results come out you should check GBs. Put my heart at rest but didn't do much as I am a complete adrenaline junkie. Might do something for some of you.

Did it just reasure you that you got the grades you wanted? I want to but I'm scared it'll freak me out more haha

I'm more excited for GB day than results day! Is it weird that I've predicted all the grade boundaries for the exams I sat? Curious to see whether I've predicted correctly Lol

It didn't really reassure me that much but it make me less anxious and more confident. Considering I didn't do half bad. But I did get what I wanted. By God's Grace of course.

Btw, some of you that are having nightmares should really check yourselves. Don't let them scare you.
