Just to be sure I'll ask.

I have 4A*s 4As 1B 1c and a Distinction (BTEC ICT).
A*s in Maths, RE, Physics and Biology
As in Chemistry, English Lit, English Lang and History
B in Electronics
C in German

Is this likely to effect me negatively if I apply to Oxbridge (if I have competitive A-levels) I would either apply for engineering or computer science. I know that Electronics is low considering how relevant it is to what I want to do, but my teacher was crap and I basically got taught stuff that wasn't relevant to the exam :mad: Also I could have tried harder for my German, but at the end of the day I didn't.

Also how competitive are Engineering and Computer Science.

Last year, 100% of students got 5Cs so you would have been bottom of my school that year.


Guess who won't be winning any prizes for sympathy. What a nasty thing to say.

Sorry to invade your thread, guys (former year 13:tongue:) but congratulations to everyone. What an amazing set of results! Keep it up and you should get some impressive A level results! Good luck and enjoy sixth form! :biggrin:
Hi guys for my gcse's i got a distinction* 1A* 6A's 1B and 3C's is this ok for UCL, imperial or Kings College?
Hi, i was wondering if i wanted to remark one of my subects which was english as i wanted to get a B I ended up with a C being 2 marks off a B and this really annoyed me. Now i found out remarks had to be payed, is this true or can the school get them remarked for free?

You've probably misread something. The way it will always work for GCSEs is as follows:
90% UMS - A*
80% UMS - A
70% UMS - B
60% UMS - C
and so on.
Are you sure that it's out of 200 or that you got 172?
