I revised the night before, just learning quotes and themes but I honestly thought that the revision I did was not gonna help me.

That's amazing. I got an A and a B for my controlled assessments but got an F for the exam, so I got a D. Going to have to retake :frown:

English Language :s-smilie:

in my mocks I got an A* in Language and a B in literature.

In my actual results I got an A in Language and an A* in Literature, somehow the tables turned completely?

Hey there,

First of all… well done for getting a B in the controlled assessment! Computing isn't easy and the controlled assessment is a complete pain in the backside! Secondly, I'm sorry to hear you didn't do as well as you'd hoped. But the fact you're opting to retake it is brilliant and shows your dedication to the subject. If you ever need any help, or you have questions… come and speak to me and I'll see if I can point you in the right direction! :h:

I largely taught myself for GCSE Japanese. The writing and the speaking weren't very well practised so I was expecting maybe a B at best. I got and A*!!!!

HISTORY.
I hated history by the end, in fact the word does not begin to describe my feelings towards the subject.
This morning my history teacher walks up to me and says "What did you think to your history grade?"
And I said "I haven't even looked at it yet."
It was an A*
Then she told me I got full marks on two of the 4 units I was mind blown.

Computing - got an A so a big improvement on the F I got in the mock!

Also maths, ruled out getting an A after I saw the grade boundaries, but I got one! somehow!!

and R.E - got E's in every other exam but managed an A!!
