I laughed...
Not.


Twitter's pretty entertaining on results day to be fair - as sadistic as it sounds. :tongue:

I'm sure its just because you've done so awesomely - not too long to go now though!

Best of luck!


Nah doubting that! The only exam i'm confident I did well in was Spanish, but then again that was an int 2 :colondollar: I'd like to think i've done well in Art and English but those subjects are so subjective in marking that you can't really predict how it'll go. And i'm pretty certain I haven't done well in Physics. Not only did I leave the exam feeling that the paper was unbelievably difficult, but my project was... just terrible. Turns out my physics teacher didn't mark ANY of the maths in the project (my weakest area) and he told me 3 weeks before the deadline (I also had a deadline for 2 dissertations and 2 portfolios in this time period too) that I had missed out some really important theory in every experiment, despite the fact that he had seen a draft with the same theory 5 months before. No hint whatsoever about what this theory was, but at this point i was so sick of the subject I just left it as it was and never altered it.

Scroll through the posts. Two people said they got them.

Ok Ok, just the first one I clicked on was a troll.
Pretty sure nobody on Twitter has their results yet, none of them seem legit. Plus results don't get sent until 1am normally, so it's unlikely...

Yes I would agree to an extent. I usually find it a great place to gauge public opinion/reaction to events.
the earliest i've heard of emails coming out before is about 12.30 so I wouldn't be surprised if people are getting them!
Are you guys getting yr results?
