What result are you most proud of though? Whether you did better than expected, or if you worked so hard and your grade shows that! :smile:

I got a 5 in maths, and even though it was my lowest grade I worked really hard to get it! So glad that I never have to solve another quadratic equation again!

Congratulations that's such a great achievement! Sometimes it isn't our best grade that we're most proud of and I love that. You must be so happy :biggrin:

I was glad to say goodbye to maths at the time :teehee:

History and English Lit and Chemistry! I got 98 ums in one history paper when I got a C in mocks. Genuinely convinced I had failed Lit only to get an 8 and, chemistry, I got a low C in mocks and an A* in the real Gcse :smile:

I got an A* in Art, Biology and Chemistry and I worked my butt off for those three A*s however I am also happy with the C I got in my French as the exams this year were hell.

I got 4A*s, 6As, 1B and 1C and want to study veterinary medicine.

9 in English lit. I've been working the whole year through to try and improve my grade from a 4 in year 10, to a 7 in the final mocks. It's definitely the grade I worked hardest on to improve so having it be so high is just amazing.

I got an unexpected A* in History. I legit went in there, knowing and accepting the fact that I didn't know anything properly. Turns out I got full UMS on one of the topics 😂

English Language and RS A*! I was most surprised about Language English because I'd never got an A* before

So I go to a grammar school and I was put in a lower set for maths for the last two years. Because of this, people in the top sets would make fun. Anyway, I worked really hard at maths and to my complete shock, I got a grade 9 beating many of the people in the top set. This really surprised me as I got a grade 6 in the mocks and thought I would have to negotiate my way back into the sixth-form.

I went from getting a D in Physics to a solid A*

I went from scraping an A in History to getting 99% on the exam.

So, those two :biggrin:

Computer science(B) and biology(A) I thought with both I'd barely scrape a C after the exams.. probably overestimated how much a messed up 6 mark question or two can mess up your results and that scraping a C that's only worth 40% of the GCSE is fine when you get 60% A. So yeah, nice surprise when I finally got my results :biggrin:

I was predicted a B in RS but walked out with an A* in both papers- which is shocking because the grade boundaries are ridiculously high.

Geography wasn't my best result by any means, but I got a B by 1 UMS point after getting an E on my Coursework due to staff problems. One of the most relieving moments of my School Career.
