The fact that almost everyone on this thread thinks they’re going to get straight A*s is exactly why I’m expecting the worst for my results. Sorry guys, but I highly doubt most of us can actually receive that high in the current circumstances.

Good luck to everyone anyway.

Honestly, I'm hoping for the best; preparing for the worst.

Right, let this not be a curse to my grades :s-smilie:
Maths:8
English Literature:8
English language: 5, I would be thrilled for a 6
Biology: 7/8
Physics:8/9
Chemistry: 7
Business Studies: 8
Art:8
Spanish: 8/9
Geography: 8 (I always get 9s but they’ll never give it to me because of my SATS predicted grades being a 5) :mad:
These are based on my grades that I typically get in each subject.
Cya on results day folks :biggrin:

Looking back, if I’ve jinxed myself I will collapse into a puddle 😳

Some people did actually achieve these results though, if you get unfairly downgraded that’s not a true reflection of their GCSEs.

True. I’m just a pessimist. It’s in my nature to have this mindset.

Ah, I’m more optimistic usually :smile:
In some ways, yours is a better trait, you don’t get unwanted surprises or heart broken as easily. Remember to still be ambitious though! Don’t let it hold you back :console:

Those predictions are quite decent, though! Is the bottom half based on your mock results?

The bottom half is mostly based on my second set of mocks while the top half is based on my first set of mocks as I did better in the first set as I was unwell in the second set :smile:

I am in Y12 but I agree with this comment some people on this thread are going to find a shock on results day when they find out they vastly overestimated themselves because they've predicted themselves all 7-9. Exams weren't sat this year so people can't possibly have a full idea as to what grade they'll get as a final grade?

TSR is far from an accurate represenatatiom of the real world and most people’s results. Don’t let it get you down!

Agreed but unfortunately it seems that YouTube and TSR normalised the A/A* grade, going to university and doing a STEM course etc.
