TSR verages are a lot higher than the normal ones, I still don't know why.
I got ABBBb and I worked VERY VERY hard for it and was very proud wheras some people didn't even bother revising and ended up with A*s and As.
Even though the ranking of A levels differs from a subject to an other but generally I think :
A* - Outstanding
A - Excellent
B - Very good
C - Good/average
D - Below average
E - Poor
U - Very poor

Please entertain my whimsical fancy and answer, with your personal opinion, on the level of these grades.
A friend broke it down like this:
A&B - good A Levels
C - average
D&E - awful
Would you agree, or would you offer a differing opinion?

If a D at A-Level is bad, then surely that would make a C at GCSE bad too.
Not that I'm saying either are good...
I find it funny that 'E' begins 'Excellent' and an E grade is 'Awful', whereas 'A' begins 'Awful', and an A grade is 'Excellent'.

A*/A- excellent: clever or motivated
B/C- average: average or busy with other stuff
D/E/U- you should have done Btec...
I'm still in GCSE mode where D is a fail though.

Hi, alongside my A Levels I take a BTEC in Performing Arts (school didn't offer Drama & Theatre Studies - because the BTEC is a much better course and we get to do lots more
) and it is just as hard as an A Level!I am fed up of people looking down on BTECs, yes they are a more vocational qualification, but they are not worth any less than an A Level (not in UCAS points anyway)...

Unless you are destined for Oxbridge, and are naturally intelligent, then I think you'll be reassessing your thoughts when you get to it.
