Help!! My life is Over!!

I thought he was complaining about those who moan about not getting full marks, rather than being a mark off a grade. Not getting 90/90, and being upset about it is plain ridiculous.

Please, this is getting ridiculous!!!!

So what if people want to "moan" about losing marks!!!
This forum allows people to speak freely and opening and to mock people for doing that is just sad!

If there are some people that are just showing off their A's then wots the problem? They have worked really hard to achieve those marks!!
If they are not mocking ur own results, then wot is the problem?????

Some people my be upset for missing marks, so wot?
We shud comfort those who feel down, not MOCK them!

A - Maths (600/600, top 5 in UK)
A - Further Maths (597/600)
A - Chemistry (581/600)
A - Physics (587/600)
A - Economics (572/600)
A - General Studies (512/600)
Distinction - Maths AEA
Distinction - Physics AEA
Merit - Economics AEA

I'm really gutted about not getting a Distinct. in Economics AEA... everyone's saying I'm being silly but really I feel like a failure, this is the first time I've not achieved the best grade in something... I'm not crying though, I've met my offer to do Mathematics at Oxford (Merton College).

Now time to start on my reading list! :-)

OK, I've got my a-level results and have really really stuffed up. I got AAAAAAAAA, but on a couple of papers I was one or two marks off full marks. I fear that I will be looked down upon by my friends, my family, my fellow stuck up ponces, and upon judgement day, my God.

Someone please tell me how amazingly intelligent I am and that everything will be OK.

Yes sorry, you are right.

However I would still link that post back to what I said early in a previous post about 'personal aims.'

May I draw your attention to the s-cool.co.uk message board...

people do have a right to be disappointed with their results if they feel they could do better...for sum people a top a is wot they need and 'only an a' i s not good enough....dont start going on about how there r more inportant things in life cos even thought there r people r on this forum to moan about academic stuff...how would it sound, if david beckham had said after euro 2004, 'hey we got to the quarter final, quit moaning, at least u r not starving????'

To go on about your "rubbish" results (which I doubt someone of your mentality to ever achieve!!! Muppet!) is just sad BUT to then make mockery of the pain and suffering that is occuring in Sudan is just purely SICK!!

I understand and agree with your point. But even then if someone has an aim of getting AAAAA full marks, for instance, and is 1 mark off full marks, they are still going to be upset and annoyed about it. This forum is the best place to express it and ask for advice on their situation.

Although other people may believe that AAAAA is a great achievement, which it is, they still may be depressed because of not reaching their own personal goals...Not the 'general goal'.

Maybe this debate has gone too far...

Are you having a laugh? If someone gets depressed over not getting perfect scores etc then they need an almighty slap and withdrawal of their no doubt endless supply of 'daddy money'.

I still think it’s quite silly and insignificant to be honest. What’s most important is that you tried your best, and that you’ve secured your place. I can understand someone being devastated missing out on their firm, however beyond disbelief that you’d feel it was the end of the world that you didn’t get full marks. At some point in your life you’ll face worse setbacks, so if you’re worrying about petty things like that now I dread to think how you’d cope.

Bitter and twisted you say? Honestly mate, some people are naturally better than you, sometimes in absolutely everything. And it has nothing to do with money, just natural ability. Get used to it.
And why shouldn't someone be annoyed at not getting their target. A person who can get 100% and doesn't has just as much right to be annoyed as someone who can get a C but only manages a D.

I think people who get 599/600 are more pissed off than anything. They know they made one dippy mistake which cost them perfection.

In conclusion. My A level results (taken 4 years early):
AAAAAAAAaaaa
plus 6 distinctions in AEA and 3 S grades in STEP I,II,III

Do you think I'll be able to get into cambridge... I already have 2 degrees in natsci and music taken in 3 months when I was 8.

Hmmmmm....
