Official AS & A2 Results Day 2016

It wasn't as easy as everyone made it out to be....it happens every year

a lot of the clearing courses were decided waaaay before Uni's got results guys, Uni's aren't capped on how many places they can give out so lots of courses will be on clearing as the uni will make more money. If anything they may be more lenient with accepting people who just missed the offer if they wish to fill up the course.

The problem is it was easier than last year's which was 68 for an A* and 62 for an A

I feel the last part of the Vectors question caught out a lot of strong candidates as lots came out the exam quite worried despite the fact it wasn't a truly difficult paper. I'd argue the grade boundaries will be very similar to last year because 69 or 70 for an A* is rather quite high and something I only ever see with FP2 and S2 so please can we pray :P

Unis aren't capped by facilities actually. Plus STEM subjects are loss making for unis so they don't go up for making money.

Someone just kill me now pls

Could this mean I'm in or is it just a standard answer. It's just the "you will receive..." bit makes it sound like I got in

When are edexcel and AQA grade bounderies released.

Near every results day, I get obsessed with a Lana Del Rey song.

Sums it up, given how depressing her music is

Same same although I like Lana anyway. Which one are you obsessed with right now haha?

wait for your results, if your happy with them then apply. but personally i would say apply regardless what grade you got. i got fairly similar grade to u and i have an offer for chemical engineering at cambridge

Thought I'd post here in the runup to this.

Who, despite constantly getting consistent As and A*s in all practice papers beforehand, is still bricking themselves over this? I need to get AAB, the exact results I got last year, yet I don't see any scenario in which I will have done so. All my teachers are ones who've been marking for years now but I can't trust their judgement in all the mocks and practices I did. It's like nothing can get my mind off of failure and it sucks, probably the reason I'm up at 1am. These three days can't go fast enough.

For the record I'm doing Business, English Lit and Film, the first of which is what I'm going on to study. All three have always had relatively low grade boundaries so I'm interested in seeing what they are this year.

Without You

Though I sometimes find myself singing the lyrics of Swift's 'Wildest Dreams' to it That Taylor, stole Lana's tune
