Ahhh oh god, I cannot believe they're a week away. Tbh I would love to get them now as the anxiety is killing me.
I really struggled this year, w mental health and being an overall idiot, but somehow I'm predicted A's and a few A*.

What I want: A*, but unrealistic.

What I'm predicting:
English Lit: B/C
English Lang: B
Maths: B
Physics: B
Biology: A
Chemistry: A/B
History: A*
Art: Coursework was A* but last topic was horrific so B?
Computing: A

What I have already:
Religion: A*

Actual results: ??? Pray for me, I need all B's to get into sixth form.

You should be able to estimate your grade/marks better now.

Will it guarantee the grade if I add all raw marks for A* in each unit and see if I meet that with my exam raw marks?

There's no option for Law at your school?

Uni's don't like it when you take law A Level and apply for law

Why not take Law if you want to do...Law? That's like saying don't take Maths if you want to do Maths at uni.

Except you need to do maths in order to do maths at a university. Law is not a subject that's done in every college and so you will be learning from scratch.
Many uni's do not like it when you take law as an A Level subject and so it's best not to take it.

Thanks for the clarification. Even though this was explained to me a few pages back.

Am I the only one who felt like every exam went well but still feels like I'm going to fail everything ? :frown:

I feel like that as well, it's so weird and annoying ☹️

What you think you've got:
Maths - A
Biology - A*
Chemistry - A
Physics - A
English Lit - A*English Lang - A*
History - A*
Drama - A*
Spanish - A*
PE - A

Best Case: 10 A*
Worst Case: 10 As or any Bs (not that these are bad results, but for me this would be underachieving and I would be disappointed)

However I only need the equivalent average of 4 As and 4Bs so even if I was to get my worst case scenario I would still get in to my sixth form. Would still like to achieve my potential though.

Predicted Grades:8 A*s and 2As

What you've actually got:
Maths - ?
Biology - ?
Chemistry - ?
Physics - ?
English Lit - ?
English Lang - ?
History - ?
Drama - ?
Spanish - ?
PE - ?

How are you feeling about results day?
Very very nervous, don't think I will have done as well as I could have which will be really disappointing. I want to do the best I can for myself but in hindsight I don't think I worked hard enough and so may have let myself down which is very very annoying.
Also I'll be really sad because about an hour before I go in to get my results I will have said goodbye to my sister as she's moving to New Zealand for a year... I don't think I'll be able to cope with that much emotion on one day haha

How are you going to open your results?
At school! We have to go in to confirm we got the grades for my 6th form so I'll probably go in ASAP, find a remote corner and open them.

What A Levels are you doing? (if not what is your alternative)Biology, Politics, Geography and possibly Maths

Are you going to record your GCSE results on YouTube? (If so I can't wait to see it!) I've considered it! May do

I did art as well, did you by any chance have OCR as your exam board? What topic did you choose for your Year 11 exam work or did you get given one?
