AS Level Results Day Thread - 14/08/14

Oh my! What happened about it? Were their actual results better or worse than the initial ones? That's awful either way!

The results (GCSE) were worse and with those she wouldn't have been allowed into sixth form, she was having a meeting about her not being allowed back in when she realised they weren't her subjects and therefore not her grades - her actual results were loads better

So always check the name

AAAA is such a bog standard prediction for people with As and A*s at GCSE. I swear they put no thought into it.

What is the lowest combo of AS grades you can get and still achieve A*AA at A2?

i might get 95 or below because ohysics would push me down in 3 relevant subjects. If maths and further maths my avg should be around 95-98. Im applying for maths ! Im worried about physics being 90 or lower it will pull my marks down

Well clearly at my school they put some thought into it because I got As + A*s at gcse and now you should see how crappy my predictions are. I really hope I can prove them wrong on results day though- anyone else in this situation!

Edexcel maths - A
AQA Physics - A
Edexcel economics - B
AQA Chemistry - B/C (which sucks because I really like the subject)

It's just such a bloody long wait to results and it shouldn't matter but I can't decide on what unis or even what course to apply for until these results arrive and it's really unhealthy to be looking at these forums because there are so many confident geniuses which makes it even more nerve wracking to know these are the people you're competing against and honestly any hopes of getting a place at a top uni are sort of dashed but it's so addictive it doesn't make sense and so basically just unable to focus on anything else sorry

How did you find the exams for chemistry and psychology?

This is a bit random but i'm so happy to see a fellow essay-er, there's so much science and maths on here!

Haha I know exactly what you mean! It's reassuring to see that there are actually other people on TSR who are humanities students (my theory is that as our grades are harder to predict right down to our expected UMS, we generally post less apart from 'well I could get an A or I could get an E, who knows!')

worst thing is Biology WJEC, is literally the same. You'd think it wasn't subjective but I literally could go from a C to 100%. It's crazy

I'm humanities too, and I too can't really predict how I did

I feel the same! Everyone on here can fall back on unofficial mark schemes and know roughly what they got but for us we have genuinely no idea... can only really guess based on previous performance

That sounds so scary! Normally the Sciences are quite straightforward with if an answer is right / wrong but there are definitely some grey areas.
