GCSE Results day March 2012

Under 2 weeks scared and excited at the same time eek

I'm getting Unit 2s for the three sciences.
Confident that the Chemistry is going to be okay, uncertain about Biology but from what I've read here the grade boundaries will be pretty low, and have 0 confidence with the Physics. Hopefully, I'll surprise myself.

At the end of the day, I guess, they're not final exams so I shouldn't be upset if I get lower results than I want, though.

If you two have a quarrel to be settled please do the polite thing and take it to the Private Message System and not spam this results thread with your bickering. Thank you.

Sorry. I will in future. My bad.

I completly agree with you and this my 2nd major results day and 3rd in total.What are your predicted grades and what exams did you sit?English Lit(Resit)nderstanding Prose SP:A* MP:B OR:A English Lang(Resit):The Writers Voice SP:A* MP:A OR:C Core Science:Chemistry SP:A* MP:A/A* Core Science:Physics SP:A* MP:A/A* Geography Unit 1:Coasts SP:A* MP:A*(hoping for full ums but probably not) OR:Original Result SPchool Prediction MP:My Prediction

I only sat 4 exams and unfortunately I am expected to receive some high grades, which I think I will have, but you never really know!

My exams and predictions and are Biology (A*), Chemistry (A*), Physics (A*) and AS-ICT (A/B)

I have never heard of someone taking this subject for an AS early.Do you have to get someone official for your coursework or is that A2?

No I am doing it through my school. I did the full GCSE ICT in year 9, and because I got an A*, I decided to do the AS in year 10 and 11. I know a couple of other year 11s who are doing this on the "Current Year 11 Thread"

I do OCR Nationals 2 GCSE for ICT.

Unlucky mate. My friend at another school did that and he is really annoyed because OCR Nationals aren't appreciated much even though the ICT is still equivalent to GCSEs and you put a lot of work in for it.

They are fully respected and count as GCSEs.

2 Distinction=A*A
2 Merit=AB
2 Pass=CC
2 Fail=UU

Whether other people see it as that is a completely different question though.

thats not fair...no wonder the colleges didnt bother to look at my ICT certificates

Exactly. I never did them myself, fortunately I took the GCSEs, but from what I have heard they are a lot of hard work yet there receive no credit whatsoever. May schools and colleges completely disregard them, as seems to be the case with you.

yeah, but its a useless qualification anyway, it dosent help with anything unless u are doing something to do with iIT when u go to uniu, other than that its useless

I know!
