You're just oppressed and ostracised for it. You get called "have a life" most of the life. People say to you "grades mean nothing" and that social skills matter.

So what's the point? What's the point in studying?

I'm academically homosexual. I can't change the way I am.

I know that feeling. :console:

To get into a good uni and get a good job! Don't give up hope. :yes:

Neither can I. I have actually tried many times. The more I try, the more academically inclined I become. I have given up trying to change myself in that respect now.

You are fine the way you are - if people don't like it, then stuff them! :colonhash:

Seems like I have to *wait* until university, but :dontknow:

It's sad that education is reduced to "a means to getting into a good uni and a good job" so you can pay the bills, get married, have kids, have a house, have a dog, receive pension and die.
:hi: thread :grin:

Anyone else a little bit intimidated by the thought that this time next week we'll be getting our GCSE results? Or even more scary, that this time next year we'll be getting are AS results? And worse, than in two years we'll be seeing if we're getting to Uni or not?

:eek3:

Yeah - there are bound to be like-minded people there. :smile:

I was just stating obvious advantages but personally, I find studying fun. :ahee:

Yeah me too! Only we do have a facebook message, a chatroom planned & a GCSE results day thread which will dissipate it.

I'm not getting any - just hopeful for my TSR friends. ML is getting Maths AS.

I am getting my FSMQ, food tech and core 4 back. What will you be getting back?
I felt slightly better after checking the grade boundaries yesterday. Every result that I would get tomorrow has really low grade boundaries :smile:
I should hopefully get an a star equivalent after finding out you only need 58 out of 75 for 90 UMS in core 4.:eek:
How did you think you did?
