15 August 2013 A-Level results: Discussion thread - results day is here!

Yeah, I'll probably change my mind, though I'm planning on doing French with Chemistry.

Aah, German I find so hard! I'm definitely doing French A Level, and I want to self study Spanish, I don't have a GCSE in it though

x!

is it just me or is this last week taking forever........................I mean we went from saying 14 DAYS TO GO to 7 Days to go, really quickly but now its just dragging!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hold up! If you resat an AS exam but didn't tell UCAS, because you didn't believe you could get a better grade e.t.c or because you submitted your form before you got your result or made up your mind, do you have to tell them what grade you got?!?! Because I just thought it would be added to the A2 grade and given to UCAS/ my firm uni! I think I'm about to have a panic attack right now

I reckon that you'll be extremely great at Spanish... That's coming from someone with an GCSE and AS in it.

Like I always say: once you're proficient in one MFL language, the world is your oyster with learning new ones!

Could you understand if someone spoke Spanish to you!?
As in, similar cognates from French and English that you can decipher?

It is a weird question but could be something an individual can do!

Just PM around, more likely to be successful

is what the same? grade boundaries for ocr, aqa and edexcel get released on wednesday, wjec on thursday.

if youre asking about raw mark/ums converters then im not sure, all I know is that aqa have one and ocr don't

I'm moving house, gotta unpack all my stuff from boxes, it takes my mind right off it

I can't PM the damn guy because I think he set his 'contact info' to private.

Just my luck

Are you sure? My college was charging 30 pounds (or more for practical exams) per retake as well.

Haha, I'll PM him now

Any AS media students here?

I was hoping you'd say that

Thanks a ton

Done

I've said to post it here if he has it...

Does anyone know whether when your teacher/s have marked your coursework and given it a mark and then send it off for the examiner to mark it, the examiner would change it if they think it deserves higher(or lower) I was just wondering cos think my coursework is gonna put me back and some last minute improvements made me wonder if the examiner would think it was slightly better than my teacher. It was aqa english lit B and it was on a Shakespeare text and Educating Rita too

Also does anyone know if the drama aqa as boundaries change (dunno if it's A or B or whatever) with the practical exam, not the written? Cos think my teacher said they might change, hoping they will cos I was only 2 measly marks off a B at As and just hoping that the boundaries lower by 2 marks for the practical side! (the written won't change cos that was in January) If anyone knows answer asap please! Thanks!x

Ah okay. Hopefully he's got it.

I know you're probably being sarcastic, but ARE THERE any courses with that offer? I'd heard some chemical engineering courses could have nasty entrance requirements, but 3A*s seems insane...
