What's everyone's plan concerning opening them: with friends, alone, with parents?

I'm collecting mine from the common room (alongside the other 450 people in my year) so I'm thinking of going to hide away in one of the corners there to open them, but if it's anything like last year before I get a chance to see them I'll be swarmed by my teachers, making revealing them very scary!

Might have to work out an easy escape route, y'know, just in case..

I get mine at the Post Office. Will open them in the car probably with dad beside me and just waiting until I've taken it in before he looks.

More importantly, you have 450 people in your year?!

I am! I just neeeed to know the day before what grades to expect depending on how well I though I did in the exam. Even if it isn't good news it'll give some piece of mind knowing the bounderies.

Quick questions before the big day :smile:

:
Will the results slip/certificates show only the overall grade or will they also show the individual module grades? And are all the results on one results slip or do they give you one slip per exam board?

Well, If you can successfully open them with out people seeing and they ask your results, just pull the ninja face...
And you can always leave and open them at home, but then you'd have to confront your parents vocally if anything went bad :/

The PDF contains both GCE and GCSE grade boundaries. Scroll down to around page 35- that's when the GCSE ones start. It only loaded until page 30 for me too at first but keep refreshing the page or use another browser.

I think they'll say the module results in lowercase then the overall grade in capitals and I think it's all on one slip but when you get the actual certificates (in a few weeks/months, I'm not sure when) they are separated by exam board.

Haha, I was considering this as well so nobody can see your reaction, but then again do you really want to remember this important moment in life with you locked in a cubicle?
