I honestly don't know :/ I have this awful habit of focusing on the bad parts of every exam :/ I just don't know whether I've done well enough to get into my first choice sixth form. I need 10A*s :/

Yeah :/
That must be a pretty competitive sixth form..! Our entry requirements are nowhere near that high!

Wow, what is that sixth form? Mine is a pretty good school and basically says 'get Cs' :tongue:

Hi!

make sure you understand what you've done so far, have a look over your work before you go back. When it comes to mocks revise for them properly and don't leave homework and revision to the last minute! What subjects are you taking? Good luck! :smile:

If your school hasn't told you you can go in to collect them or given you a password to access them on line (they have a similar system to Edexcel online) then you will probably have to wait until you get the rest of your GCSE results.

You could try ringing the school on the 12th as I assume the school will download them then, or (if you have a 6th form) the exam officer will be in processing the A level results on 13th, but they may be too busy to talk to you.

You guys have a long time to wait :tongue:

Yup, August 12th. And because I have a sadistic teacher, I have a maths test on the same day :eek:

You can get them on CIE Direct on the 12th, but they're usually out at schools on the 13th/14th... You could ask your exams officer?

Oh alright then, thanks for the info. I'll probably end up waiting till the 21st :smile:

Remember that CIE results are often posted a week before along with the A level results - depending on your school, you may be able to see them early, but don't hassle them! They'll be working hard with the A level results and they won't want GCSE years calling/coming in to possible get some results a week early!

Hey guys, what were your mock results? Mine were soooooooooooo bad haha. But that's probably because i didn't take them seriously. After i got my mock results i wasn't disappointed because i knew i didn't work. After that, i did soo many past papers at home and pushed my grades up by far, (apart from english cause i'm terrible at essay writing)

I'm beyond nervous for my GCSE results! I'm in year 11 (going into six form) Luckily, I think everything went OK apart from Physics, I've always hated Physics and I've never been any good at it so I'm expecting to fail it ahahah!
Anyway, good luck guys! Don't worry about it, you've all done your best and just remember: no matter how bad you've done you can always re-take or look at other options, and can still achieve what you wannna achieve with a bit extra work! :smile:

Good luck with your results! Physics probably went better than you think if you don't like it! :smile:

I'm not quite sure yet, I was thinking of taking Sociology, Religous Studies, English Literature and Psychology but it depends. How about you? :smile:

Thankyou haha, I hope so!

I understand that habit... when a question on my chemistry exam saying "which one of these are metals" I totally forgot that the periodic table is split up into non-metals and metals... and that's the only question I remember on that paper since I did it bad...

10A*s... I don't even know what to say...
