Comments: I know for a fact I haven't done as well as my predictions :/ Seriously messed up biology and history badly!! Don't think English lit went well either! Dreading results day to be honest.

Bit disappointed in biology but knew after the exam I hadn't achieved my predicted grade. Pretty pleased over all - Now onto A-levels :O

Comments:

Predicted
I'm hoping for 9A*s and 4A's but obviously I'd want 13A*s
I'm worried about how my physics, astronomy, german, IT and food tech exams went, I don't think I did as well as I could have but I'm still hoping for the best.

Actual:
I cannot believe I came out with 11 A*s and 2 A's, it's such a relief especially with full UMS in food tech! And IT was a complete shock, hardly anyone got an A* in IT

I'm happy with my results but I wish I got an A* in English Language because I feel that would have been more useful than an A* in food tech but I can't change that now :/ an A is still good enough for me :smile:

Comments: I knew from the first week an A* in Art for me was impossible. If I get an A* in Maths it will be ridiculously close. It is impossible for me to get an A* in Physics due to me having to get 103% in the final unit... I think the others I may have achieved... just. Think I may have got an A* in German as I have been doing extra work as I wanted to show my teacher I could get an A* if I tried really hard.

I still think I have a chance of an A* in English or German. Both final exams went really well for me. I messed up the Maths final exam and I was already a borderline A/B, so I'm worried I might not even get a C :-( I might just be worrying about nothing. Science has always been my worst subject but hopefully I've done enough to get a B.

A-Levels
Fine Art, English Lit, Philosophy and German
I'll also redo my Maths GCSE if I've failed...

Comments:

I think I'm most likely to get an A* in French, history, English language and physics.
I could also get an A* in RE and art but that's not extremely likely. I could also end up getting a B in English lit and media.
So, worst case scenario I will probably end up with 3A*s, 6As and 2Bs. Best case scenario I will have 6A*s and 5As. :biggrin:
