ABB. What went wrong? :'(

That's me out of here then. I think it's just going to be gap year, biomed, then graduate medicine

Oh no!!

Try clearing for Biomed instead.

Brilliant - 479/600 for Chemistry. As in every module, and a big fat D in Unit 5. 1 mark, someone must have seen that at Edexcel and thought, 'I could just add one more for him'. But no. :rolleyes:

I was almost exactly like this in physics last year. :nothing:

Are you getting anything remarked?

Still sad seeing all your friends going uni, and you're just there scrolling through facebook, happy, but sad at the same time

I know this feeling far too well. Except, I wasn't very happy at all. It'll pass though, eventually.

Definitely try through clearing for biomed! If not, during your gap year you may as well resit some exams and apply to universities (albeit not many) which accept resits for medicine.

I'm staying in this thread. Woop.

A*A* AA

messed up my chem and ICT exams and missed the A*'s for them (they were mathematically my soundest options)
Got an A* in biol just
And got an on the boundary A* for Psych because I 100% ed the exam, in psyb3 I got 80 on the dot so it averages out to 90%.

But yah, I'm staying in this thread. :biggrin:

Unlucky to anyone who didn't make the grades, I wish you all the best and if you decide to go postgrad I hope you get firsts.

It doesn't make sense.
I get 90% all the way through the year in chem
100% my course work in ICT
and then get a borderline A in chem
and a C in my ICT exam
so still A's overall.

But Bio and Psych my most likely A grades Especially psych I get A*'s in.

Funny how the world works.

I wouldn't cancel! If he's definitely taking a gap year, he may as well resit some exams and apply for universities which accept resits. He's got nothing to lose, unless he definitely wants to do something else.

Oh I know what that's like. I had a 99% at AS in Persian but didn't get an A* at the end. :laugh:

But don't worry, you've still done a lot better than to qualify for a gap year imo. :yes:

I'm amazed and shocked about my other two A*'s but part of me is still like bleugh that I didn't pick up the easier to get ones.

Still Chuffed though.
