E to a B.
D to a C.

I'm proud of the first one, hard work paid off :biggrin:


I did E to a B too, in Maths!. Every teacher thought I was a lost cause, in fact, I'm just completely lazy.

CCE - AS
BBC - A2

and I'm going to Bath so, it's completely possible. I worked MEGA hard though, easter holidays and may half-term were just pure WORK. In the library most days after school for 1.5-2 hours.

Laziness comes at a price I tell ya that! :wink:

P.s. I resat a few units obviously :tongue:

In Biology I managed to go from a D to a C. But I did resit one of the AS papers. For my other subjects I stayed the same though.
I went from ACC to ABB.

I did.

For my AS:

Maths - 252/300 - A
Bio - 244/300 - A
Chem - 237/300 - B
Phys - 252/300 - A

So as you can see pretty low A's/high B's.

My A2 Parts:

Maths - 273/300 - A*
Bio - 271/300 - A*
Chem - 258/300 - A
Phys - 240/300 - A

So i improved everything pretty dramatically except Physics due to a coursework mishap. (I was given 59/60 by my teacher but it was moderated to 33/60 by edexcel.... :s-smilie: )
AABB at AS
AAAA at A2
BBCD at AS BBB at A2 all A's in my A2 exams tho, no retakes at all.
