Is it good i passed my exams first time 2 years early?

Hey :smile:

Just wondering if it is good or not that I am doing a BTEC Level 2 in Sports at secondary school because i passed the exams first time round and took them at the end of year 9 and was one of only two students to pass them :/ Can anyone tell me if it is good that i did or not?

Thanks :smile:

Good for who? If you're talking about universities, they really won't care when you took them, they're just interested in what grades you got.

It was more of a general question as i am having to start at looking at colleges as i don't even know what a college would want to allow me to do courses. As i still have a year and a bit left but my application i will be doing this time next year so am kind of already freaking a little because i don't know if its good in general that i passed both my exams first time round or not :/

He was being sarcastic. And to your question... It doesn't matter if you took the exam early, what matters to colleges and unis are the grades. You said you passed them, so i'm assuming D/C? If that's right i suggest retaking them to get at least a B if you want to do A levels. If you want to continue BTEC sport and do level 3 next year, i guess you're fine.
