Your school will have been sent your results. It's up to them if they give them out today or wait until next week.

If the FSMQ is the only thing we did on OCR and it's not a GCSE or A-level, does it have to be declared in a year or so when we do our uni admissions?
Anyone got their results today? I don't think I'll get mine until next week because of my school.

Yes you have to declare it when you apply for uni or your place can be withdrawn as the application would be fraudulent (in the most serious cases)

Well done! Not sure what I got yet...don't think we get them today but when I get home I think I might email the HoD to ask if we can have them.

Thanks a lot. Hope u get the best grades
Hi everyone - I've just joined The Student Room and this is my first post!

I am 15 yrs old and home educated. I found the exam harder than I expected so was really pleased to open the letter this morning and find out that I got an A!

Best of luck to you all.
Well done to all of you who got A's, the hard work paid off!!!

Personally I'm not too desperate to get it back, as I'm concerned more about my GCSEs, however an A will definitely be helpful with my UCAS application.

Well given that my school closes at 2pm I think that's another week to wait then :sadnod:
Got an A and am very happy. Waiting for my raw mark which should be emailed to me soon.

Would just like to point out that perhaps the grade boundaries are higher than before as schools with students that are less capable may have decided to drop the course with the introduction of the 9-1 GCSE maths that is harder than before. As a result, the boundaries are higher as the proportion of A's etc. is roughly the same but there are only more capable students taking it.

Wow...that point was a complete revelation to me :lol: Probably should have thought of it...but looking at the exam statistics entries are down around 3000 and despite the high grade boundaries the percentage of entries getting each grade is up significantly so that is the answer. 49.45% of people getting As though...wow! Slightly concerned about what my classmates will have got now though as some of them were struggling to get out of the 40s and were hoping for Cs...hopefully they did better in the real exam!
