I think that you need to realise that there's more to life than grades.

Terrible. You shouldn't even show your face on TSR with atleast 14A*s at GCSE, 3 top 5's in the country, and A*'s in all the sciences and maths at A-Level taken 2 years early.

I think they're great grades, though it depends on what school you went to - if you went to a crappy comprehensive they're even better. They'll get you into a good uni along with A levels and shizzle :smile:

I only got one more A than you (2 A*s, 9 As) and I got a place at Oxford. You'll be fine.

The funny thing is this is probably below average on TSR. :biggrin:

And yes those are excellent grades.

How good those grades are depends on what you're capable of. If you're capable of 10A*s and you were just lazy, those results are rubbish. If you've worked extremely hard over the last few years and dragged your results up from Cs then they're incredible. If that's what you were hoping for and were working towards, well done! You can't judge how "good" grades are because it depends on you as a person.

It makes sense people on here generally have good grades; those are the same people that care about their study enough to regularly visit an internet forum dedicated to that purpose.

By the way, 8A's and 2A*s definitely looks good written out like this: A*A*AAAAAAAA. Have you already got those results?

Well done! :smile:

For the people negging the OP - why bother? I mean if I got those grades I'd be bragging as well. :rolleyes:

Might as well just be pleased for the person.

EDIT: Actually I realized I wouldn't brag - I would probably thank God and only tell people if they asked me. But I stick by what I said about being pleased for the person.
