Wait, are these new results or what? :confused:

Me too, my French listening was probably my worst exam out of the lot. I had A* coursework but I think the exams will bring it down to an A. :facepalm:

Yeah, that's probably true :tongue:

...I'm waiting for my results as well, but I'm most worried about French listening and Additional Maths exam but I'd prefer to get at least a B in them...what grades are you hoping for? :smile:

Best of luck! I finished my GCSEs last year and this year I'm awaiting my AS level results! I'm started to get a bit worried now though, all my exams seem to have gone well :s-smilie:

That random B is making everyone's lives so complicated!

I think the B is referring to the specification of the subject, generally there is specification A or B. That's why results are almost always in lower-case.

even though I got two A*s when I got home I started crying because I didn't get 100%

Woah.

The best response would probably just be "I'd rather not say if that's alright" and just smile because people are inevitably bound to be disappointed on results day or maybe a bit more reluctant to share their results so your friends should really understand and leave it at that :smile:

And I'm procrastinating by reading it instead of revising for my last exammm
If anyone fancies teaching me physics I'll be eternally grateful :biggrin:
