Plz... I need some success stories to make me feel better

My cousin who is now a dentist got grade C's at AS in bio and Chem
At A2 she got A's

Hope this helps Xx

Hi, I got a B in AS Maths yesterday and I'm gutted. It was close to an A (3 UMS off) but either way I want to be aiming for top marks, not just 'scraping' an A. Could you please share some tips how to bring my Maths up to an A and potentially an A*? I got 78 UMS in each C1 & C2, and 81 in S1. I will be doing C3, C4, and M1 next year.

Also, a great set of results. That's really inspiring.

At AS I got BBCC in biology, chemistry, maths and physics repectively. I got biology remarked to an A, just barely, so ABCC. I dropped physics as it was my worst subject.

At A2 I got AAA, chemistry was 1 UMS off an A* and biology was 3 UMS off an A*. I thought I worked hard at AS but this year I worked so much harder and it paid off

hey, i got a grade D for physics AS and wish to get A for A2.
Based on your post, does it means that is it possible to get A for physics at A2 despite grade D in AS?
thanks

Please share how you did it! Revision techniques, tips etc. I didn't take the same subjects as you but I need help on how to turn an E into something higher

I'm not sure if it's a success, but I was a straight A/A* student at GCSE, who managed to get an ABDE at AS level, thankfully, I dropped the E, from A level Chemistry. It was a bad decision to take it in the first place :', on results day of A2, I was predicted AAB to go study at Queen Mary University, with Surrey as my insurance; however, I did not manage to improve my AS biology grade (D) to an A as I'd hoped, despite the extra amount of work I put in this year - the bio grade did go up though - but I did achieve two A*s in Religious Studies and English Literature, scoring full marks in the latter's exam. This led to me applying for adjustment, and I am now holding an unconditional adjustment offer for King's College. Despite this, I sincerely hope that your mood improves, feel better!! Even if you feel downcast right now, somewhere in the world, the sun is still shining, so there's always hope.

IMPRESSIVE! Ahh must feel so nice to experience hard work paying off.
What does it feel like to have "worked so much harder". I will be taking bio, chem, maths to A2 as well How did you make that change? Any advice?

It was such a shock to me that I cried on results day and thought no university would accept me. It was a kick up the arse that meant I just HAD to work hard. I pulled myself together and just forced myself to work hard because I had to to get into a good university and study what I wanted to study. I also wrote a damn good personal statement according to my teachers

For advice, I'll refer to what I said earlier:
I went through every textbook front to back, missing no information and doing almost every question for every section. When I was confident in a certain unit, I'd start doing past papers, marking my answers getting better at the kind of questions they ask in exams. Before the real exams I spend a month doing nothing but revision every day using a revision timetable scheduled around my exam timetable.
