Oh definitely! I'm buzzin! :wink: Bring it on!


Anything to make results day fun! For the last 2 years I've had bets with my parents: for every top grade (A/1) I get £20, but for everything B/2 or below I have to give them £20 from my own pocket. Let's just say that due to a severe case of CBA, I've not taken them up on it this year...

If you got a B you had to give them £20?! Jeez...

So by your system, last year I would have earned £60 and lost £40, therefore making £20 in total. Doesn't seem worth it tbh! :tongue:

Does anyone else think that the higher English essay questions this year were really specific and hard to write on? Just hoping I'm not the only one that did!

Definitely! I feel like although they were good questions they weren't straight forward and were a little awkward! Although - in a couple of my exams questions were worded differently than usual :frown:

Ok then :tongue:

Btw, on an unrelated note, do you think if I get a tutor and go to private schools, that is buying my grades? I was just wondering you see.

I was taught perfectly well by all of my teachers at a state school.

On another note, I have no juice and no shops near me. This is why I hate not being at uni. If I was at uni there would be a massive tesco ten minutes away, or at my new flat there would be a tesco that doesn't close until midnight (but I'd be closer from work so it would be open when I got back). FS man.

Is it sad that no-one thinks I look intelligent? Made a good few bets for 7 A's, for favours including and extending beyond money. Of course, saying I got 5 B's and 2 C's in the prelims helps.

Should've went to a private school and then you might be able to solve this problem.
