These results would have been perfect if not for that ugly D in maths just ruining everything. I'm praying that karma is good to me so that I don't have to do maths next year....

Comments and reactions
I could have done better, but I'm not going to dwell on that, because I don't think 10 As is too shabby! Though I'm not taking it next year, I'm most happy about music, since I surpassed what I was predicted, the same with maths. All in all I'm pleased- I put in quite a lot of hard work and I think it shows!
Future ambitions
Next year I'm taking physics, chemistry, maths and French in the hopes of becoming an engineer later on in life. I'm aiming to get all A*s in my AS exams, but we'll see about that :colondollar:

Well done everyone!

RE: Predicted B / Achieved A

Comment
Overall really happy with my results, but devastated for some others. I have a few friends which are supposed to be coming to me to sixth form. One was predicted mostly A's and A*s, but got all C's and one B, making him unqualified for all A Level courses apart from Maths. Over the joy of my results I'm just feeling upset for him and hope he manages to get into the school. He worked so hard.. Another friend got what he needed, but underperformed on some subjects which surprised me.
