Got my resit for AS Music Technology module (self-taught, year 11)...
120/120 :biggrin:
My other modules from last year were 90/90 and 85/90 which gives me a grand total of...
295/300
Can't complain :p: The head of music text my dad which was a bit weird, because I'm abroad right now, it's not the most fun way to find out a result!

Anything you would have done differently in the past year if you could have done them again? not taken chem?
Could you look at the results first or did you get a parent to? I tore the envelope open as soon as I got it
What time did you find out your results? Just after 11
Did you feel nervous? very!
How do you feel now after knowing? Amazing :biggrin:
What grades did you get? AABC (As in French and sociology, B in English lit and C in history) plus Merit in AEA French
Did you meet your predictions? No, I was predicted AAAA
If not, are you going to appeal? I got Us in 2 history exams, so they're going to be checked or remarked or something, but I had a D in a history exam remarked last year and it stayed the same, so I'm not holding out much hope
If you applied to uni, have you met the offer? I didn't meet my Cambridge offer, which was AAA including French and English, but I did meet my Exeter offer, which was ABB including A in French
What decisions have you made about any further study? I'm going to Exeter
What made you pleased/disappointed by your results? I was pleased with my merit in French AEA because I thought I'd failed and an A in an English exam I thought had gone really badly, but I was disappointed with 1 of my English modules, 2 of my French, 2 of my sociology and 2 of my history :bawling:
Anything you would have done differently in the past year if you could have done them again?
Resat at least one English module from AS (I was 4 marks off an A!!!! :mad: ) dropped history after AS and probably done a bit more revision
Could you look at the results first or did you get a parent to? I went in to school on my own, so I looked at them
What time did you find out your results? 10
Did you feel nervous? No, I just felt crap because I'd already known from UCAS Track and a letter from Cambridge that I hadn't got in
How do you feel now after knowing? Very disappointed and upset, but trying to put things in perspective; they're still a good set of results and I'm sure I'll have a great time at Exeter
Jumping into the bandwagon here :p:

What grades did you get? Use of Maths AS - A
Did you meet your predictions? No prediction made.
What made you pleased/disappointed by your results? For my modules, I got 90, 92 and 99 out of 100, which makes my UMS 281.
Anything you would have done differently in the past year if you could have done them again? Not stressed so much about the coursework, as people who did far less work than me got an A anyway :p:
Could you look at the results first or did you get a parent to? I did
What time did you find out your results? About 11:05
Did you feel nervous? A bit, but not too much.
How do you feel now after knowing? Pleased, as I thought the best I could get was a B. It's not a 'traditional' AS level, but it's still an AS level nonetheless and it's a confidence booster for next year (and next week....).
