So altogether I have achieved 7A*s, 1A, 2Bs and a D. I'm incredibly happy with them - other than the D of course but I'm focusing more on the fact that I got 7A*s and hit my target!

This will be my last ever update on this thread, as my GCSE journey has now officially come to an end. I've tagged those who have helped me along the way and made the whole experience a lot better than it would have been - thanks guys!!

If you've made it this far, well done! I'll be making an A Level GYG thread at some point too, so watch out for that!

Peace out ✌🏻️


You should be so proud, and I am glad to have followed thsi with you - you've made the whole process so much easier for us all and it is great to see how we have all bonded through GYG threads. Enjoy celebrating and good luck with your A-levels. :smile:
